Monticello Police Mission 1996

The mission of the Monticello Police Department is to secure domestic peace and public safety for our existing and future generations.

To further our mission we will enlist, assist and cooperate with all those organizations and people who support our Mission.

To pursue our mission effectively, we will maintain our practice of fairness and openness with all our citizens. We will honor, revere and protect the Constitution and the rights it guarantees. We will steadfastly enforce those Federal, State, and local laws that are our tools and our charge.

To safeguard our credibility, we will set an example for others in our personal and professional conduct. We will execute our government office with integrity and forthrightness.

As we seek to carry out our Mission, we will remain open to new ideas and methods while we recognize and cherish our heritage and traditions. We will always remember that, as an agency, we exist for our citizens and not for ourselves.

The men and women of the Monticello Police department wrote this Mission Statement in 1996. We review it yearly. We live by it daily.
