In November 1982, Keizer became incorporated as an official city in Oregon.  At that time the City of Keizer contracted with Marion County Sheriff's Office for police services.

On May 19, 1984, the City of Keizer established the very first police department in the city.  The Police department in Keizer started out with 11 sworn officers, consisting of a Chief of Police, two sergeants and eight patrol officers.

Today the Keizer Police Department serves over 35,000 residents with 40 sworn officers, 9 support staff, Reserves, Cadets, and other volunteers.

We are proud to sponsor a Reserve Police Officer Program and a Law Enforcement Cadet Program.

A departmental reorganization took place in 1997 which resulted in changes that affected every division.  The Department was branched into three separate divisions, Patrol Division, Criminal Investigations Division, and a Support Services Division.

The Keizer Police Department operates using a community policing philosophy.  A philosophy that promotes police, community, and government agencies working together to solve problems.  A management philosophy that encourages a state of mind which occurs when the officer realizes that he or she does have the power to go beyond an arrest and to begin developing a plan to solve problems.  Developing a plan that involves not only the officer but also action on the part of those most affected by the problem, the citizens.
