The mission of the Dixon Police Department is to enhance the quality of life in our city by working collaboratively with our community to preserve the peace, protect the public, and provide a safe environment for everyone to enjoy all Dixon has to offer.

Dixon Police Department Philosophy 

We believe police services work best when they include everyone. Residents, businesses, community and religious leaders, we all have a vested stake in a safer city. In this, the members of the Dixon Police Department have committed ourselves to improving how we provide services to our community by listening to the community. 

We are always working to create new opportunities for input. This is your police department, we are your officers. Serving the public trust is an essential element any police officer understands, and your Dixon Police officers embrace the strength of our community in protecting and serving all who live or work here.

Our communal success, as residents, business owners, or visitors hinges on the idea we are one Dixon. From police to fire, from librarian to public works, we all are committed to working together to make life in Dixon safer, more enjoyable, profitable and supportive of the kind of lifestyle our residents demand.
