The month is almost over, but we couldn't let it end without recognizing all the hard-working people we have in Dispatch. Commerce Police Chief Corley Weatherford said, "Public safety generally doesn't begin when an Officer arrives. It begins the moment a dispatcher answers the phone. It takes skills and dedication to be a dispatcher. Their ability to gather information, provide life-saving instructions, and coordinate emergency response is nothing short of extraordinary. This month, we recognize their unwavering commitment and the vital impact they have on the emergencies we handle."
THANK YOU TO ALL DISPATCHERS!

In 2025, there were 22,087 alcohol related crashes on Texas roadways, which resulted in 865 fatalities. The Commerce Police Department increased traffic enforcement throughout spring break to help keep our roadways safe and reduce injury and fatality crashes.

During this period of increased enforcement, officers are assigned to this initiative to work outside their regular shifts. Increasing the number of officers on our roadways.
