The Mission Statement of the Burlington Police Department is: In
recognition of our responsibility to be responsive to the needs of our community, the Burlington Police Department shall nurture
trust by providing quality Police services that promote the highest quality of life and sense of safety for all residents,
businesses and guests. It is essential for members of our profession to realize we act not for ourselves, but for the good
of the communities we serve.
Our Vision for the future is: In support of the Community Policing Philosophy, the Burlington Police Department has developed a vision
that builds the framework for providing a quality service. Community Policing is both a philosophy and an organizational strategy
that allows the police and community to work closely together in creative ways to solve the problems of crime, physical and
social disorder, and improve the overall quality of life in our community. The philosophy rests on the belief that solutions
to today's community problems demand creative new ways to address community concerns beyond a narrow focus of individual
incidents.
