Goal Statement

The Port Washington Police department is an open system. We strive to keep employees, citizens and other interested persons informed in all that we do. We collaborate and partner with special interest groups, citizens, the business community, media and school district.


In order to have a fully engaged community, one that understands and accepts its responsibilities in crime prevention and order maintenance, it must be informed. Having information is critical to being successful. We will practice providing information using the most advanced systems available to keep the community and employees informed.
