Be Bear Aware
As a reminder Spring has arrived and bears will be emerging from their winter dens. They are hungry and looking for any source of food. People should not feed bears or accommodate their feeding through improper food or garbage storage. Experience in New Hampshire indicates that doing so can enhance the likelihood of property damage, bear/human conflicts, or possibly result in bear behavior that leads to their removal. Purposeful or inadvertent feeding that creates the likelihood of human injury or property damage can result in your being issued a fine if the attractant is not removed following a request to do so.
Time to take down, clean, and put away your bird feeders and store them until late fall. (Birds will do fine with the natural foods available)
Dumpsters are an easy source of food for the bears. Secure your garbage in a bear-proof container or a building.
Contact the Sugar Hill Police Department if you have any questions. ... See MoreSee Less

OUR MISSION AND PHILOSOPHY

The mission of the Sugar Hill Police Department is to work in partnership with the community to provide the best possible public safety services, with emphasis on sensitivity to community needs and concerns. “Partnership”, in this sense, means a shared responsibility for community safety among the police and fire divisions, other town departments and community residents who cooperate together in providing information and influence to assure continuing community safety.

This community policing philosophy stems from an idea that is at the very foundation of our American heritage: the welfare of the country is the individual responsibility of each of it’s citizens. The philosophy fits particularly well in the Town of Sugar Hill:

Sugar Hill Police Officers have aquired an understanding of the community’s policing problems and particular circumstances that affect public safety.
The Sugar Hill Police Department is firmly committed to maintaining a spirit of partnership with the community.
