The prime mission of the Rochester Police Department is the protection of life and property. This is accomplished through fair and equal enforcement, always keeping in mind the rights and dignity of the public.
The basis of all police action is the law and the credibility of the agency. The measure of our service will be judged by the public in the way we deliver our service. We will hold all personnel to a high level of ethical practices.
This mission can be achieved through crime prevention, public relations,
and community policing.
