We are a modern, highly trained, technically skilled, energetic, diverse, and well-equipped police department, with a current authorized strength of more than 300 officers, 104 full-time civilian employees, and 28 part-time civilian employees. Our size agency allows you the opportunity to work in Patrol, Criminal Investigations, K-9, Special Operations, Motors, and much more!
