From the Chief
As a member of the Randolph Police Department and the community for the past twenty-three years, I have witnessed the growth and development of a town that was once known as a resort community. However, the one constant that has remained is the desire of township employees to determine what is important to the community and to fulfill those goals when possible. It is with great honor that I now serve as the sixth Chief of the Randolph Police Department.
Over the course of my career, I have gained invaluable experience in all aspects of the department’s operations. I began as a patrolman for the first seven years of my career. I advanced to a patrol sergeant and then to the sergeant of the Traffic Safety Bureau for eight years. My next move was supervising the different aspects of the department as a lieutenant over the past eight years. During this time, I have developed relationships with many people in the community and have worked with them to address quality of life issues. I look forward to continuing these relationships while building new alliances in an effort to deliver quality police services to the residents and visitors of Randolph Township.
The mission of the department is to protect life and property, enforce the laws of the state of New Jersey and the ordinances of the township, maintain public peace, to assist in addressing quality of life issues, and to promote a working partnership between the residents of the township and the police.
Within this mission statement rests the values on which the police department operates. Professionalism, honesty, respect, integrity and compassion are the values that define us as law enforcement officers. Our goal is to be an efficient, effective and well-organized law enforcement agency focusing on core law enforcement functions. We will continue to strive to provide the highest quality of law enforcement services to the community that we serve.
