Security Considerations in Park City and Deer Valley

Retail here is seasonal and high value. Main Street boutiques, galleries and jewelers see their heaviest traffic from December through early April, when ski visitors fill sidewalks in the evenings after the lifts close. Stores often carry outerwear, art and fine jewelry with a small staff on the floor, so officers need to manage crowded entrances, watch fitting rooms and support staff during late closings without changing the feel of a resort shopping experience.

Winter weather shapes every post. Heavy snowfall, icy walkways and limited parking on Main Street affect store entrances, loading and staff arrival times, and traffic on State Route 224 and State Route 248 can slow travel between Kimball Junction, Old Town and Deer Valley. Post Orders should account for snow removal schedules, slip hazards near doors and realistic relief times for officers working at altitude in cold conditions.

Summer brings a different pattern, with arts festivals, concerts, weddings and corporate retreats filling hotels and event spaces. Many residences and lodges sit empty for parts of the year, which creates demand for lobby coverage, patrols and access control at private properties. International visitors are common in both seasons, so officers with Spanish or other language skills are useful at hotel and retail posts.

Screening, Training and Supervision

Officers complete a five-stage screening process and tier-based training before assignment, including de-escalation and, for retail posts, organized retail crime recognition. Supervisors make unannounced site visits, and the McCray Operations Desk answers 24/7/365. Incidents are documented on scene, and clients receive reports in the same format at every location.

Utah Licensing

In Utah, a site can be staffed by McCray officers, by officers from licensed local security companies that hold the licenses the state and local jurisdiction require, or by both, and McCray manages the program: screening and training standards, supervision, Post Orders, reporting and account management.

Common Questions

Can coverage be scaled up for the ski season and reduced in the off season?

Yes. Many Park City and Deer Valley sites run heavier schedules from December through April and lighter schedules in spring and fall. Coverage levels, hours and Post Orders can be adjusted by season once the needs of each site are reviewed.

How is security guard coverage priced?

Rates depend on the officer classification, hours, schedule and site requirements. McCray provides a written rate schedule after reviewing the needs of each site. Holiday, overnight and short-notice coverage is billed at a premium rate.
