Police Department
The River Bend Police Department provides 24 hour
coverage, seven days a week to provide timely response to
emergency calls and proactive policing designed to keep
our community safe.
This small staff provides the same level of service as larger
departments including traffic enforcement, criminal
investigations, bike patrol, and town ordinance
enforcement.

River Bend also has a functional Community Emergency
Response Team (CERT). For more information about this
