Community:

The cornerstone of this Police Department is the relationship we have with the community we serve. Our ability to be effective in carrying out our mission is based on the credibility we have with the community. Understanding that we are a part of and not separate from, the community is critical. Although we are granted responsibility for policing the community, we cannot do it without the cooperation of the public.

The Police Department strives to enhance this relationship in several ways:

• By ensuring that each police contact is carried out fairly and with respect;
• By seeking input from the public on our programs;
• Procedures and priorities;
• By being active in community programs and charities.
