Home Government ▼ Services ▼ How Do I... ▼ Contact ▼ Steve Burns, Chief of Police Message from Chief Burns I am proud of the men and women of the Medina Police Department who are committed to serving the communities of Medina and Hunts Point with the highest integrity and professionalism. I am encouraged by the teamwork and relationships our department have made with our citizens, other City department employees, and surrounding law enforcement agencies. Officers work closely with our citizens to provide a safe environment for family and friends to live and play. We work closely with fellow City employees to ensure we are efficiently using City resources to provide the best service to our citizens. We continue to have outstanding relationships with regional law enforcement agencies to ensure we share information and are ahead of current crime trends. We pride ourselves for the ongoing partnerships with our neighbors that allow us to focus on the needs of the community and respond quickly to the requests of our citizens. The positive relationship between the officers and community provides for an outstanding opportunity to make our neighborhoods safer. The officers proactively work in the community by patrolling neighborhoods, visiting schools and businesses, participate with the Emergency Preparedness Committee, and responding to the needs of the community. Medina officers work closely with fellow City employees to identify issues early and proactively get positive results. It is not uncommon for an officer to assist a public works employee or handle a question at City Hall. Our employees understand the need to be part of the City team. We actively work with other local law enforcement agencies by assisting with calls for service, sharing current crime trends, or training together. Knowing our law enforcement partners provides a greater confidence when we come together on planned response, project, or incident like a visiting dignitary or community event. Lastly, our employees practice our core values of professional excellence, acting with integrity, accountability for our actions and the resources entrusted to us, exceptional responsiveness to community needs, respecting and protecting individual rights, and empathy and compassion for others. I am honored to be part of a great team committed to the safety of our community. Official Website of the City of Medina, Washington. All Rights Reserved.
