Thank you Mayor Kirk Watson for spending valuable time with our call takers and dispatchers and learning more about the critical work they do every day.

The questions you asked were thoughtful, engaging, and showed your true interest in understanding the important role this team plays. They are the unsung heroes of our department-the first voice heard when someone calls for help and a critical link between our community and the officers responding in the field. Their calm, compassion, and professionalism make all the difference.

On Patriot Day, Friday, September 11, 2026, several members of the APD and the Special Victims Investigations Command participated in the 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb at the Austonian. Twenty-five years later, the group climbed 110 flights of stairs together to remember those who were lost, honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice, and reaffirm the bonds that unite us as a service. Their collective presence made the memorial more than an event, it became a powerful expression of remembrance, solidarity, and commitment to never forget.
