TPD | Policies

To enhance transparency, the Tallahassee Police Department is making all of its internal policies available to public here online, which expands its prior practice of always making policies available to the public upon request. As the second-longest nationally accredited agency in the country, TPD’s policies are continually reviewed and updated to incorporate best practices within the evolving field of law enforcement. As part of this, TPD looks at national trends, internal data and community needs to ensure it provides the highest level of service. Portions of these policies have had to be redacted in accordance with State Statute and with sensitivity to possible criminal use that would be harmful to investigations.
