A Message from the Chief

The Louisville Police Department exists to protect this town, serve its people, and help preserve the kind of community Louisville ought to be. That means professional policing, clear standards, consistent enforcement, and a department that stays connected to the public.

I believe people should know what to expect from this department, and I believe they want to know what is happening in their town.
