***TEMPORARILY MOVED***

The Hastings Police Department is now conducting business on the main floor of Hastings City Hall throughout the rehabilitation period. There are signs that will guide people to where our front desk personnel are located. There is signage on the elevator and main entrance to assist you to our temporary location.

Our phone number has not changed, (269) 945-5744, and we will still be able to assist with all regularly performed functions. As always, Barry Central Dispatch is able to take complaints. The non-emergency phone number is (269) 948-4800 option 1.

Thank you for your patience.

Hastings Police Department.

***ATTENTION***

On 5/11/2026, the Hastings Police Department will be undergoing a renovation project. The construction will render our 2nd floor office space unusable. Police Department operations will continue through this period, but we will be operating out of the 1st floor City Hall area between 8:30 am and 4:30 pm.

Phone access will remain between 8:00 am and 5:00 pm. The non-emergency line will remain available 24/7. In the event of an emergency please call 911.

The 2nd floor will remain accessible for Counsil and other meetings. There will be signage indicating the location of Hastings Police Department personnel inside the City Hall space.

If you have any questions, please call (269) 945-5744.

Thank you for your patience during this period.

***LIFTED: NO PARKING 2AM-6AM ORDINANCE***

After coordinating with DPS and researching weather forecasts, Hastings PD has chosen to end enforcement of the overnight parking ordinance until next winter.

As this is Michigan there is always the possibility of more snow.

We ask that, should we get more snow accumulation, cars be removed from the street overnight so the snowplows can do their job.
We will resume enforcement on November 1st, 2026.

For further information, please contact HPD at 269-945-5744

Thank you.

***NOTICE***

On November 1st we began enforcing the, “No 2 a.m.-6 a.m. Parking” ordinance.

We did this by issuing warning notifications to cars parked on the street during that time.

Tonight, 11/13/2025, we will begin issuing parking citations to vehicles parked on the street between the 2 a.m. and 6 a.m. timeframe.

Please help us keep the streets clear for when the plow vehicles begin.

Thank you

*ROAD CLOSURE 8/25/25*

A southeast portion of the crosswalk at W State St / S Church St will temporarily be closed for maintenance and safety. Motorists will not be able to travel eastbound through the intersection and will have to navigate around to get into that block. Parking spaces are still open along the eastbound lane. Thank you for your patience.
