In 2014,the dedicated members of the Tigard Police Department continued their unwavering commitment of our department's mission to "create the highest level of livability possible by working with our citizens to preserve and protect life, liberty, and property." I would like to express my gratitude to our patrol officers who are the backbone of our department for their commitment in embracing our mission every day.Tigard is a great place to work, play and live, and the Tigard Police Department supports our city in maintaining its excellent standard of living. Our crime rate continues to be low, and our department is viewed as a leader in community-oriented policing, intelligence-led policing and problem-solving efforts. As the city continues to expand both in population and in the business sector,we see a dramatic increase of demand on our department's resources.The department aggressively manages all of its resources to maintain a high level of service despite the increasing gap between our workload and our resources.We look forward to working together in the coming year to improve the quality of life in our city.We believe that our past successes are building blocks for the future, and we will continue to be proactive and flexible. On behalf of the exceptional men and women who constitute the City of Tigard Police Department, I would like to thank Mayor John L. Cook,the City Council members and City Manager Marty Wine for their collaboration and support.Together,we will continue to promote a safe and secure community, and uphold Tigard as "the most walkable city in the Pacific Northwest."
