On May 9, 1985, the City of Maryland Heights incorporated, and on August 16 of that year, the Maryland Heights Police Department was formed. The entire municipal government, including the Police Department, operated out of a small converted warehouse located at 212 Millwell Drive. To put in perspective, this first facility was about the size of ourAt that time there were just 40 commissioned police officers that came from a variety of small and large area police departments. Five dispatchers and two secretaries made up the non-commissioned personnel.
The officers' first assignment was to paint the interior of the warehouse and construct the first jail, which consisted of four wooden walls and a chair. Then, on August 17, the officers hit the streets in ten used police vehicles purchased from the Missouri State Highway Patrol. The vehicles sported the "gum drop" type police light bars (think Mayberry).
Thirty plus years later we have over doubled in size with 79 commissioned police officers, 12 commissioned reserve officers and 17 non-commissioned employees.
In October of 2008, city staff, including the Police Department, moved out of the old warehouse and into our new modern Government Center located at 11911 Dorsett Road (just down the street from the old station).
In 2009, the Maryland Heights Police Department became only the second agency in the State of Missouri to receive certification under the Missouri Police Chief's Certification Program. In 2016, the Maryland Heights Police Department received international accreditation through the Commission of Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies (CALEA).
The men and women of the Maryland Heights Police Department take pride in their history and look forward to the challenges of the future.
