    COMMEND AN OFFICER

    Our department and officers are dedicated to providing our citizens with outstanding service when possible. In the course of our daily operations, it is difficult to keep track of all the individual ways our officers help to make a difference in the community. If you have dealt with an officer (or officers) who you feel went above and beyond in their service to you, we would love to hear about it! Commending an officer for their efforts is easy and takes a moment of your time using our online form.
