CHIEF'S STATEMENT


Welcome to the Burbank Police Department’s web page. In a very real sense, this is a community web page as well, because it demonstrates the partnership we have with our citizens that gives the Department its strength as well as its motivation. The Burbank Police Department exists to protect and to serve the community, and that partnership accounts for the success of our Department.

This internet overview of the Burbank Police Department will highlight many facets of our organization. We want it to serve at least three purposes:

To provide a resource for anyone interested in information about our Department. To provide an additional avenue of interaction with the community, and to serve as a recruiter for the Department in our quest to locate, hire and retain the highest quality employees.

Thanks for joining us here and welcome to the Burbank Police Department.

- Police Chief Tim Stehr
