The Property and Evidence Unit receives all evidence and property found by, turned into or collected by police personnel. The unit has two Property Clerks whose duties and responsibilities are to ensure and maintain the safe, secure housing for the storage of evidence and property.

All property and evidence items submitted are entered into a computer database and case research is done so final disposition of property and evidence items can be determined. The unit works with several other county agencies such as the Medical Examiner's Office and the Broward County Sheriff's Lab, where evidence items are sometimes transferred for further testing/analysis. The unit also works with the State Attorney's Office to testify or give depositions when required.

The reuniting of property, whether found or evidence, with their owners in a timely manner is one of the many goals for this unit.

The QuaterMaster Unit merged with the Property and Evidence Unit in August 2002. There is one QuaterMaster working in the unit at this time. The Quartermaster is responsible for the purchasing of uniforms, equipment and office supplies. The Property and Evidence Unit has two Assistant Property Clerks, who works directly for the Property Manager.
