Our Mission
The mission of the Key West Police Department, in partnership with the community, is to provide effective and efficient police services.
Core Values:
Respect
A comfortable and healthy work environment must first start with mutual respect among members of our Department. Likewise, a community that respects its police department and its members must first begin with members of our Department consistently demonstrating understanding and sensitivity to all those in our community with whom they come in contact.Integrity
Ethics and honesty are perhaps the most valuable traits a law enforcement officer can possess, an essential element in gaining the trust and confidence of the public.Fairness
Every law enforcement officer must be able to make objective and impartial decisions based on the law and the facts at hand. Just as important is an officer's ability to exercise discretion, always using fairness as a guide.Service
We must always strive to provide a positive and professional response to the needs of our residents and visitors.
