Message from the Chief
Welcome to the Lebanon Police Department. I hope you find our site helpful and informative.
I must commend all twenty-nine employees for their commitment to providing the highest level of police services through a community partnership with the citizens and businesses of the City of Lebanon. Whether you live or work in Lebanon, or are just stopping by for a visit, you should know that we stand ready to serve. However, we cannot do it alone. We need your help by reporting suspicious activity and crime, becoming and remaining involved in your neighborhoods, and sharing information with us regarding any activity that might jeopardize the safety and well-being of any citizen.
I am a thirty-three year employee of the City of Lebanon and a thoroughly enthusiastic advocate for this community. Time-honored traditions, loyalties and friendships remain steadfast while new and exciting challenges and opportunities are always on the horizon.
Please spend some time on our website. If you have any questions or concerns please contact me or any other member of the department.
Thank you,
Tom Garoffolo, Lebanon Police Department
