The Miamisburg Police Department, headquartered in the Civic Center, features a highly trained staff of law enforcement professionals. It employs 41 full-time officers, eight full-time communications officers, several auxiliary officers and civilian staff. The force includes a detective division, a D.A.R.E. officer and a school resource officer.
In 2004, the Department demonstrated its ongoing commitment to a community-based philosophy of policing by developing the Downtown/Citizens Police Initiative (DCPI). This Ohio grant-funded program featured creation of a patrol position dedicated solely to the Citys historic downtown district, which is the subject of revitalization efforts. Required locally matching funds to secure the state grant were donated by the Spring Fling Committee in 2004 and by the Fraternal Order of Eagles in 2005. Additional grant funding from the state has continued to support the program from 2006 - 08.
The Police Department in 2007 began a process to achieve national accreditation from the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies (CALEA). This is a process that will take approximately three years to complete.
