The Yarmouth Police Department is a proactive police agency dedicated to excellence by ensuring quality customer service for everyone we serve by way of team work, accountability and community involvement. We shall set high professional standards through training and education in order to cultivate the personal and career growth of department employees with a constant emphasis on innovation, mental and physical health, and performance improvement.
We are committed to the prevention and suppression of criminal activity through the identification, apprehension and prosecution of offenders and by the reducing of opportunities to commit crime. We will be proactive by applying the necessary resources towards repetitive and or serious criminals such as drug dealers, sexual predators, abusers, drunk drivers, thief’s and scam artists. We will also train for and provide emergency management services for natural disasters and terrorist events. We will use available technology in order to improve police operations and efficiencies
We recognize that the department’s employees are its greatest asset and assume a responsibility to treat them professionally and support their professional development. We will provide them with the necessary tools to survive the very taxing job of a Police Officer and also the necessary training, staffing, equipment, and facilities that will enable them to safely and professionally perform their dangerous duties.
Through “Community Governance” we pledge to innovatively solve community problems and will work with and aid Yarmouth’s governmental agencies in the planning and management of ongoing community problem solving and special events. This concept will include the involvement of interested stakeholders as part of the problem solving process.
