The Statham Police Department is a 24-hour law enforcement agency, who is committed to the citizens and visitors of Statham with pride and dedication. We are currently comprised of a 14-person agency of Uniform Patrol Officers, Investigations, K-9, Public Relations, Community Outreach Program, Administration, and Support Staff. Our officers are trained professionals with the first priority of public safety to all within our city. Our department’s philosophy is dedicated to a firm, but fair approach to all and treat others as we would like to be treated. “Committed to the Community”.
Our jurisdiction, while small, consists of a small-town atmosphere with big town attributes. The main highways that run through the heart of the city are U.S. 29, GA 211, and GA 316. These highways are the arteries from the Metro areas of Athens and Atlanta. Small town businesses right up to trademark commercial operations are within our city limits.
Along with the above-mentioned atmosphere, the occasional violators and criminal elements can pass through or choose to stop within our city to visit or conduct business. It is our objective to correct violations by enforcement and deter criminal activity through aggressive criminal patrol to ensure safe passage and residence to our citizens and visitors alike.
In addition to these duties, we strive for community connection through personal contacts and various programs to have an open rapport with our citizens. Communication is imperative to maintaining a healthy relationship with our citizens and visitors.
