The Ocean Reef Public Safety Department is a multi-function organization providing security, emergency medical, and fire services to the Ocean Reef community. Public Safety is equipped with a communications dispatch center for 911
and non-emergency calls, three advanced life support (ALS) ambulances, one ladder truck and one pumper truck, one patrol boat, one 10 Meter Fire-Rescue Boat, and multiple patrol cars, each equipped with automated electronic defibrillators
(AED’s).
The Ocean Reef Public Safety Department also manages the Front Gate and Welcome Center. Officers assigned to the Front Gate and Welcome Center are responsible for ensuring that all members, guests, and employees gaining access to
Ocean Reef have proper clearance. Background checks for contractors, workers, and employees working in Ocean Reef are also performed by the Welcome Center staff.
Security / Front Gate
Residents and Visitors entering Ocean Reef by land must enter through the Front Gate. Our computerized entry system and professional staff ensure that only authorized personnel are allowed onsite, 24 hours a day. Residents may preauthorize expected visitors by calling the Front Gate, or by utilizing the automated clearance system. Contractors doing work onsite are restricted to set hours, which vary based on the time of year.
