  port orange police department
The
Port Orange Police Department provides unparalleled protection for
residents, businesses and property. This is evidenced by a per capita violent crime rate
that is less than one-tenth
the State average, and lower than any other city in Volusia County with a
population over 56,000. Eighty-four sworn officers, 1 sworn part time
officer, 21 non-sworn employees and
more than 40 VIPS (Volunteers in Police Service) provide law-enforcement and
animal control services throughout the City of Port Orange. As
a pro-active and community-oriented agency, the Department subscribes to a
philosophy of "community policing". By giving careful consideration to
each reported crime incident, the Department is able to maintain an accurate
reading on the concerns of local residents. Officers are trained to be
client-oriented and to forge close bonds throughout the community.
