Abstract

The task of the communal police is primarily reflected in the provision of assistance and services that have their own specifics. When it comes to the communal police in the Republic of Serbia, in that case the duties are reflected in the performance of supervision and control in accordance with the legal authorizations of the city regulations. Accordingly, the communal police, by performing tasks within their jurisdiction, ensures the performance of tasks within the jurisdiction of the City of Zajecar, in the areas of communal activities, environmental protection, people and goods, protection and maintenance of order in the use of land, space, local roads, streets and other public facilities, as well as the unhindered performance of certain tasks within the jurisdiction of the city, and so forth. Having in mind the specifics of the communal police, the aim of the research is to show the efficiency of the work of the Communal Police when providing assistance (2014-2019) through a systematic approach to the processing of data from archival materials, on the example of the service provided to the city authorities, which refers to providing assistance to PC Parking Service Zajecar.
