Although policing has changed a lot over the years, solving and preventing crime remains a top priority for this department. To accomplish this task, we work hard to establish partnerships in the community through the many community policing programs and events. Programs such as Citizens Academy, Fight Like a Girl, National Night Out and community safety picnics, just to name a few, remain a large part of our community policing efforts. Our community partnerships are extremely valuable--without the positive relationships, crime fighting is an uphill battle.
