On behalf of the dedicated men and women of the Richfield Department of Public Safety I would like to welcome you to our website.

Our Mission is to ensure the highest level of public safety while protecting the rights and dignity of those we serve.  We are dedicated to professional excellence by exemplifying honesty, integrity, professional competence, compassion, positive leadership, and respect for the public, to whom we are ultimately accountable.  We will engage the community through collaborative partnerships which identify the causes of crime and strive to reduce crime and the fear of crime, through the unbiased enforcement of the law.

We have initiated a number of programs that seek to strengthen our relationship with our Community.  We believe the best way to reduce crime and the fear of crime is through building partnerships.  The School Liaison Officer Program, the Joint Community Police Partnership, Block Watch, and our Crime Prevention Program are excellent examples of that approach.   We will do everything in our power to improve the health, safety and welfare of the public through our services..
