Chief's Message

Picture
Welcome to the Vergennes Police Department’s webpage!  I appreciate your interest in our police department, our community, the services we provide and the links to other resources.

The City of Vergennes has a proud and storied history which has an origin which dates back to the earliest days of our great nation.  The pride and spirit of our proud and patriotic ancestors has been passed down through generations to the folks who live and work in and around the City of Vergennes today. 

The men and women who serve our community as law enforcement officers possess that same sense of pride, dedication and independence.  We are here to serve our community.  Safeguarding our community’s safety, health and welfare is our mission.  Whether it be enforcement of motor vehicle law, criminal law or addressing quality of life issues, we handle each type of call for service with the same degree of importance and professionalism.

Everyone we deal with is treated with the same degree of respect and courtesy as we would expect for our own family members.  Earning and maintaining the trust and respect of our community are key to our effectiveness as a police department. The relationship we enjoy with the citizens of Vergennes is vitally important to us.  We are the City of Vergennes and the City of Vergennes is us. 

The most important cornerstone of this department is the quality of our officers.  We expect the highest degree of competency and dedication from each of our officers and we work diligently to improve our skills, individually and collectively, as professional law enforcement officers.  Each officer possesses the highest moral character and conduct themselves accordingly.  From their appearance to their job performance and dedication to duty, the Vergennes Police Department is a standard bearer for Vermont law enforcement.
​

I encourage everyone to visit our “Little City with a Big Heart.” Our community is warm and friendly, our streets safe, our shops interesting and vibrant and our eateries second to none.  Come visit hometown Vermont!  I am proud to serve as the Chief of Police for the City of Vergennes and I am proud of the officers who serve with me.  Vergennes has been and always will be what Vermont was.  God bless and be safe!
