Unit Numbering
La Crosse County, WI Unit Numbering System
1xx County Sheriff, Dive Rescue
101-149 belong to individual deputies and ranking officers
2xx La Crosse City Police [Trunked Radio System]
LCPD no longer uses beat number assignments.
Officer radio ID's are now based on their badge number .
For example officer # 2492 (badge #49) is identified as 249.
Civil service employees ( CSE , cadets) are identified as CSE 1-10.
Police Reserves are "PR"
3xx Onalaska City and Township
301-349 City Police

385-399 Brice Prairie First Responders
4xx Shelby Township
425-432 PD Officers
450-469 Fire and First Responders (serving Shelby and Greenfield Townships)
5xx Wisconsin State Patrol Post 5
Note: 5xx numbers are not used in the county plan for interoperability reasons. There
are 5xxx units as well (inspectors). Routine State Patrol activities are conducted
on their own radio system but troopers do monitor county radio systems and work
primarily on Sheriff-1 through La Crosse County EDC sometimes when working major
incidents with multiple agencies responding. (DNR conservation officers also monitor
and answer calls from La Crosse County on Sheriff-1.)
6xx West Salem Village
601-649 Police
650-669 Fire Department (which serves the village and surrounding townships)
670-699 First Responders - individual team members have their own numbers
7xx Holmen Village

11xx Farmington Township
13xx University of Wisconsin - La Crosse PD
19xx County Service Processors
41xx County Emergency Management
4101 Mobile Command Post (bus)
Within the blocks above, smaller municipalities' ranges are typically broken down as follows -- (This does not apply to City and County of La Crosse 100s and 200s)
- x01-x49 are Police. Certain agencies assign numbers to individual officers (Onalaska, Sheriff, Shelby); others may use numbers based on vehicles.
- x50s are Fire Department officers.
- x60s are Fire Base stations (390 is Brice Prairie EMS base).
- x61-x79 are assigned to specific fire apparatus.
- x80-x99 First Responder units (particularly Campbell, West Salem, Campbell, Brice Prairie)
Separation of services explains some of the numbering. For example, West Salem Fire and First Responders are completely separate entities. Brice Prairie First Responders serve an area of Onalaska Township covered in part by Onalaska City Fire and in part by Holmen Fire, and are distinct from either fire service. The numbering (and paging) reflects this. Shelby, on the other hand, is a combined service.
La Crosse Fire Department now uses designations like "Engine 1," "Quint 1," "Heavy Rescue," etc. This is probably good because there would otherwise be collisions with the Police who have taken the entire 200 series. There are still some numbers which seem to be historical references to the old numbering system still used throughout the rest of La Crosse County -- such as "Fire Base 60" (the Station 1 base) and "Car 57" (which is actually a pickup truck, not to be confused with a Fire truck).
More recently, some agencies have started using designators outside the numbering plan -- Campbell Engine 1, Farmington Rescue 6.
Common Law Enforcement Lingo/Shorthand
- ATL = Attempt to Locate
- Pro/Par = Probation/Parole
- QPP = Query Probation/Parole (for a subject's Probation/Parole Status)
- RO = Registered Owner
- Chapter 51, 55, and just "Chapter" = hold for psych evaluation
- 961 = controlled substance (based on state law Chapter 961)
Law Enforcement Call Disposition Codes (incomplete)
- A Adam = Unfounded complaint
- B Boy
- C Charles
- D David = Subject left area before arrival of police
- E Edward = Peace restored
- F Frank
- G George
- H Henry
- I Ida = Municipal citation/summons issued
- J John = Juvenile citation/referral
- K King = Parking citation issued
- L Lincoln = Arrest made
- M Mary = Wrecker took vehicle
- N Nora
- O Ocean = Automatic alarm investigated
- P Paul = Police service (other/catch-all)
- Q Queen = community oriented policing detail?
- R Robert = Report will be filed
- S Sam
- T Tom
- U Union
- V Victor = Verbal warning
- W William = Written warning
- X X-Ray
- Y Young
- Z Zebra
A given call may conclude with more than one disposition, and a given code may be used more than once -- "clear with an R Robert and two L Lincolns" means a report will be written and two people were arrested.
