ABOUT US
We hope you enjoy your stay as you browse through the pages we have provided to acquaint you with our department and the services we provide to the community. The Johnson City Police Department is made up of an authorized strength of 41 Full-Time Police Officers, 6 civilian personnel and 1 police chaplain. The Police Department is managed by Chief Brent Dodge. All members of the department are committed to providing the highest quality of service to all of our residents and visitors. The department consists of a Administrative Division, Patrol Division, Detective Division, and a Traffic/Parking Enforcement Division. Specialized units within the department consist of a bicycle patrol, Community Action Team (CAT Unit), Community Engagement Officer (CEO), canine unit, a multi-jurisdictional Special Response Team (Metro SWAT), and School Resource Officers.
The Village of Johnson City covers 4.3 square miles and has a resident population of 15,535 people. Johnson City is home to a regional medical center, a health sciences college campus, and the largest indoor shopping mall in the region. Johnson City has experienced a great deal of commercial growth in recent years and, due to our central location, is the commuting hub of the Triple Cities. As a result, the Village's daily population swells to between 40,000 and 50,000 people.
Mission
It is the mission of the Johnson City Police Department to partner with our residents and businesses to make Johnson City as safe and inviting as possible for all people to reside in and visit. We further strive to form strong bonds with the community and to protect their property and preserve their rights.
Vision:
Our vision is to help create a more vibrant and flourishing Johnson City that is free of blight where our residents and guests feel safe while enjoying a higher quality of life.
Values:
In an ever-changing world, our core values remain constant. They are a fundamental part of who we are as Johnson City Police Officers. Core values are not descriptions of the work we do or the strategies we employ to accomplish our mission. These values form the foundation of our work, how we interact with each other and members of our community. We rely on our core values to shape the decisions that we make. These three values guide and inspire us in all we say and do; we will continually internalize and model these core values:
- Integrity: Honest and ethical behavior in all we do; our actions will match our words.
- Courage: Selfless devotion to duty; taking action in the face of danger and holding ourselves and our peers to the highest ethical standards.
- Service: Our residents and businesses provide for us and our families through their hard earned tax dollars. We owe it to them to go above and beyond to provide them with the absolute best service possible.
Future Challenges
One of the greatest challenges facing the department in the future continues to be the drug problem and associated crime. The proliferation of drugs in our community has had a profound impact on many neighborhoods and has caused property crime such as burglary and larceny to increase. Combating the drug problem will continue to be one of our highest priorities.
