Law Enforcement

City of Meriden, CT Police Department
The Meriden Police Departments primary function is to provide law enforcement services to the community, enforce traffic and noise regulations, investigate crimes, assist victims of crime, and maintain law and order throughout the city.  We are staffed around the clock and officers are deployed in marked and unmarked cruisers, bicycles, motorcycles, ATVs and on foot.

The Meriden Police Department’s motto “Working in partnership with the community” is demonstrated by our partnership with the Meriden Council of Neighborhoods.  We encourage all residents to take an active part in your community by joining your Neighborhood Associations.  Visit the Council of Neighborhoods website for more information.
