Whether you are a newly licensed officer or an experienced lateral transfer ready for a fresh start, you are encouraged to apply and become part of a community-driven team.

  • Overtime assignments are distributed based on fairness and equitability rather than seniority. Officers may choose to receive overtime pay or accrue compensatory time. Up to 48 hours of compensatory time may be earned each year, with a payout after the final pay period in November.

  • The department offers a wide variety of specialty assignments, including SWAT, School Resource Officer, Investigations, Mobile Field Force, Bike Patrol, Task Force Investigator, Drone Operator, K9 Unit, Crime Prevention, and Explorer Advisors.
