Police Department

Mission:

Lead the fight to prevent crime and injustice, Enforce the law fairly and defend the rights of all. Partner with the people we serve to secure and promote safety in our community.

Our Core Values

As a leader in this Department, I commit myself to honorably perform my duties with respect for the dignity of all people, integrity to do right and fight wrongs, wisdom to apply common sense and fairness in all I do, and courage to stand against racism, sexism, and anti-Semitism, homophobia and bigotry in all its form.

Our Creed

My goals are simple; I will always be painfully honest. Work as hard as I can, learn as much as I can and hopefully, make a difference in people’s lives.

Police Officer Positions

The Police Department is comprised of 26 sworn, 7 civilian employees and 1 volunteer dedicated to serving the City of Greenfield. Police officer positions are budgeted in the Measure X Sales Tax Fund and 2 police officer positions in the COPS Grants Fund as School Resource Officers.

The members of the Department bring diverse life experiences and cultural perspectives to the City, which provide excellent foundations for community service and outreach. The Police Department will continue to recruit applicants for the Police Officer position and Reserve Officer Program. Potential candidates will apply, a thorough background check will be conducted and then be afforded the opportunity to participate in a formal Field Training Program to enhance and develop their patrol skills.
