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.
