2025 Annual Report
On behalf of the men and women of the Vinton
Police Department, it is my privilege to present the
2025 Annual Report. This report reflects the work,
service, and commitment our officers and
professional staff bring to the Town of Vinton each
and every day.
Policing is about far more than responding to calls
for service. It is about presence, trust, and
relationships. Our officers work each day to serve
this community, respond when our residents need
us most, and build the relationships that strengthen
trust in our profession.
The strength of the Vinton Police Department is
found in our people and in the community that
stands beside us. We are fortunate to serve in a
town that values collaboration, supports its police
department, and shares in the responsibility of
keeping our community safe. The strongest
communities are built through partnership and
shared responsibility.
This past year has also been a year of continued
growth and resiliency for our department. The men
and women of the Vinton Police Department have
remained committed to professional development,
teamwork, and service while adapting to the
evolving challenges of modern policing.
Dear Vinton Community,
I remain incredibly proud of the officers and
administrative staff who represent this department.
Their professionalism, integrity, and dedication to
service reflect the very best of this profession. The
work they perform each day, often quietly and
without recognition, allows our department to
continue moving forward and serving this
community with pride.
It is an honor to serve as Chief of Police and to
lead such an outstanding group of professionals.
The Vinton Police Department will continue to
remain committed to our mission, to our
community, and to earning the trust placed in us
every day.

2025 Annual Report
The Vinton Police Department was awarded $5,500 through the Accreditation
Enhancement Grant. The department was able to purchase PowerDMS, a secure, cloud-
based document and compliance management platform specifically designed for public
safety agencies and other high-liability organizations. It serves as a centralized hub for
managing, distributing, and tracking critical documents such as policies, procedures,
training materials, and accreditation files.

Stenghtening Our Mission
Through Grant Support
The Vinton Police Department was awarded the Local Law Enforcement Block Grant in
the amount of $3,2000. Through this grant, the department was able to purchase on-line
training for two members of the police department to earn certifications as Personal
Trainers, Nutrition Coaches, and Wellness Coaches through the National Academy of
Sports Medicine Certifications. The primary goal of this training was to equip our
personnel with the tools and skills needed to train our sworn law enforcement officers in
physical and mental wellness. Through proactive approaches that focus on officer
wellness, we will not only be able to provide the officers with the skills they need to
prevent violent crime, but we are also taking significant step towards a safer, more
harmonious community.
In August, the Vinton Police Department was awarded the
DMV Selective Enforcement Police Traffic Services Grant in
the amount of $25,291. This grant reimbursed the town for
overtime pay the officers earn facilitating individual patrols
during peak hours for speeding and occupant protection.
The DMV Selective Enforcement Grant also allowed the
department to purchase 2 RADAR machines.
