Service Request Form
The UTRGV University Police welcomes submissions for security services from departments, registered campus and outside organizations. The submission of this form will enable us to assist you in making your event a success. Use this form to make request for Public Safety Officers and Police Officers to work your event.
To ensure a Public Safety Officer or Police Officer scheduling, requests should be made at least ten (10) business days in advance. Requests received less than ten (10) business days in advance of the event may not be filled due to insufficient officer availability which may impact the scheduling of the event.
If a Security Service is requested where no security or police services are requested, but the University Police believes, based on the nature or size of the event, that security or police services are essential to the safety of those attending, the Chief of Police and/or Assistant Chief may make the determination that security and/or police personnel are required. The sponsoring office or organization would be responsible for payment of services.
This request is for Security Service only. If applicable, requestor(s) using facilities and parking will need to make arrangements with the appropriate departments.
The overtime rate that University Police charges for Police Officer and PSO security per hour will increase from $45.00 and $30.00 per hour to $55.00 and $40.00 per hour, respectively. The reason for this increase is the incremental increase in personnel salaries over time. The current rates of $45/$30 per hour were established in 2015 at the inception of UTRGV and have remained constant for approximately 8 years without increasing.
The new rates of $55/$40 per hour for Police Department security will go into effect on September 1, 2023.
