The vision of the Tazewell Police Department is to provide progressive, professional law enforcement services to the Town of Tazewell, recognizing that public service begins with a strong bond with the community in which we serve.
A Message from the Police Chief, David D. Mills –
The men and women of the Tazewell Police Department are proud to serve such a great and supportive community. The department is a full service law enforcement agency providing 24 hour service year round.
We work closely with other municipal and private agencies in the area to maintain a quality of life where our citizens feel safe to walk, jog, or be outdoors. The Tazewell Police Department holds the distinction of being one of the smallest agencies to hold VLEPSC accreditation. Accreditation is regarded as one of the key benchmarks for measuring the quality of an organization and the Tazewell Police Department is proud of our status.
The 2022 Town of Tazewell Police Department Annual Report will highlight our efforts in crime reduction through traffic enforcement, building checks, patrols, and investigations; as well as our community involvement.
Our “community first approach” includes the planning and coordination of safety and security of multiple road races, parades and festivals. We also sponsor several events which include a Community Dinner, Shop with a Cop and a Kids Fish Day, these events could not be achievable without the support from Tazewell Town and the magnitude of volunteers that show up to aide with these events.
Our efforts in reducing crime and our community first approach could not be possible without the support from our Town Manager and the Town Council. We appreciate them for their support. I could not ask to be part of a better team of professionals. In 2023, I am sure we will be able to approach the issues that we face with the same professionalism in order to keep the Town of Tazewell an outstanding place to live, work, play and visit for everyone.
