It is the mission of the Sonora Police Department to provide the
highest most dedicated level of service to our community. Protecting
citizens and their property is our main function and goal. We have chosen if
unavoidable to place ourselves in harms way to protect you and your family.
We strive to stop crime before it happens by having a proactive approach. We
stand behind our commitments to provide the utmost service to our community.
This level of service shall be accomplished through honesty, integrity, and
excellence. |
The Sonora Police Department has 5 sworn Officers and 2 civilian
employees. Sonora, a city of 3,000 population is one of the safest cities in
our nation. We are convinced that one reason for our low crime rate is due
to our pro-active approach to crime. |
The Sonora Police Department is committed to the concept of Community
Oriented Policing because we strongly believe that a partnership between the
community and the police is the only way to make our community a safe place
to live and raise a family. In order to protect and serve the community, the
department stresses proactive law enforcement to identify potential problems
and use preventive measures before a problem can reach crisis proportions.
The department uses such methods as around the clock patrol, surveillance
and traffic enforcement to achieve this proactive approach to law
enforcement. |

itself--administration, patrol, criminal investigation, D.A.R.E., K-9, and
