About Lake Mary and Its Police Department

The geographic footprint of the City of Lake Mary is approximately 10 square miles. Lake Mary has a residential population of over 17,000 people and the daytime population can reach two to three times that amount. The police department employs 48 sworn police officers and 8 civilian support personnel that handle other administrative duties. The officers in Lake Mary strive to know the community and to build positive relationships with the people they serve. Our community policing division hosts and/or participates in several large-scale community events each year and works with our residents and businesses to provide a myriad of safety tips and recommendations.

The Lake Mary Police Department is accredited by the Commission for Florida Accreditation (CFA) and has been since 2005. Continuing the good standing with CFA requires a vigorous re-accreditation process every three years, of which our police department has excelled each time.

I take pride in hiring quality people to serve as Lake Mary Police Officers. Each officer receives the training, equipment, supervision and leadership necessary to provide outstanding law enforcement services to the community.

Which states in part in : 112.311 (3) "It is likewise essential that the people be free to seek redress of their grievances and express their opinions to all government officials on current issues and past or pending legislative and executive actions at every level of government. In order to preserve and maintain the integrity of the governmental process, it is necessary that the identity, expenditures, and activities of those persons who regularly engage in efforts to persuade public officials to take specific actions, either by direct communication with such officials or by solicitation of others to engage in such efforts, be regularly disclosed to the people."
