The Faribault Police Department is comprised of men and women who take pride in the service they provide to and the partnerships they have formed with the community. We are a full service agency made up of administration, patrol (with a full time community crime prevention officer), investigations (with full time school liaison officer), records, and community services unit for parking and animal control and nuisance abatement.The department is evolving towards a community policing philosophy. We have increased our citizen participation through neighborhood problem solving, and associations with groups like: Faribault Area Chaplains for Emergency Services; Seniors for Public Safety; Amateur Radio Emergency Response Team; and expanding the role of our reserve officers. If you have a question or concern you would like addressed by the department please contact us.
