WELCOME TO THE CITY OF GOLETA POLICE DEPARTMENT

Chief's Message

Lt. Phil Willis

 

The Goleta Police Department is committed to providing our Community with the highest quality police services possible to maintain the quality of life that is treasured by those who reside, work and visit here. Our objective is to sustain a partnership and problem solving relationship between the police and the community to control and prevent crime through strategic planning, innovation, and pro-active programs in a setting where individuals are treated with dignity, equality and respect.




In order to fulfill this commitment, we will:

  • Respond positively to the Community's needs, desires and values and in so doing be recognized as an extension and reflection of those we serve.
  • Strive to provide a safe and healthy environment for all, to minimize violence and property loss resulting from criminal acts, injuries and a diminished quality of life caused by traffic violators.
  • Manage inevitable change and welcome the challenge of future problems with creative solutions, which are financially prudent and consistent with Community values.
