“We are committed to partnering with our community to create a safe city by providing the
highest level of police services.” That is the mission statement of the Reno Police Department (RPD). Year in and year out, the men and women of the RPD strive to embody our mission as we pursue more ways to engage the community we serve. We have always emphasized safeguarding lives, property, reducing crime, and enhancing public safety for our residents and visitors. My goal as your Chief is to guide this department and foster a relationship of transparency, accountability, equality, and respect. In 2019, I reorganized the department into three divisions: Community Services Division, Regional Services Division, and Support Services Division. I felt this restructuring was necessary to improve service, enhance accountability and to create more efficiencies in the department. In Fall 2019, a third Deputy Chief and third Commander were promoted and were added to the department’s executive team. Those promotions created the appropriate level of command, leadership and oversight for each of the department’s divisions. With the support of the Reno City Council, we purchased the former Reno Gazette Journal building for RPD's new home, the Public Safety Center. This new Public Safety Center will be designed with one goal in mind: to better and more efficiently serve our community. This new facility allows for better parking for visitors, more space for resources, streamlined reporting methods, a victim-focused and trauma informed approach to interviews and crime reports. In 2001, we lost one of our officers who was killed in the line of duty, John C. Bohach. This year, we were humbled to learn that the Washoe County School District would be naming an elementary school after him. Officer John C. Bohach dedicated much of his career in assisting and defending children who were victims of crime; naming a school after him is a fitting and appropriate tribute. The men and women of this department are honored that John’s life and legacy will be recognized in this manner. RPD is dedicated to being responsive to the needs of our community and we constantly pursue opportunities to meet with and discuss issues important to you. We organize community engagement annual events such as the Symposium on Community and Policing, the Community Forum on Immigration and Cup with a Cop. We’ve participated in other events such as the Community Engagement Fair, neighborhood festivals and charity events. The input, suggestions and feedback provided by the community about our department is invaluable. In an effort to improve the city’s homeless populations, we worked with the City of Reno and developed the Clean and Safe Team. Following the lead of the City Manager’s Office, Parks and Rec, Public Works, Code Enforcement and other city departments, the Clean and Safe Team was established to focus on public concerns related to the health and welfare of our homeless population. To support the Clean and Safe Team, I added additional resources to our Community Action and Outreach (CAO) unit. The CAO focuses on the quality of life issues and connects those experiencing homelessness or in distress to services that are provided by community resource providers such as HOPES and RISE.
As a long time Reno resident it is my honor to serve as your Chief of Police. I’m extremely proud of the men and women of the RPD and the work they do. This department will always be here and will continuously adapt and evolve with our ever-growing community.
