Police Department News
Front Counter closure last Wednesday of every month
Beginning Feb. 25, 2026, the Police Department front counter will be closed to the public on the last Wednesday of each month to ensure we continue providing the highest level of service with our current staffing levels. While the front counter will be closed on these days, officers and dispatch personnel will remain fully available to respond to calls for service. Emergency and non-emergency response will not be affected. If you need to retrieve a recovered stolen vehicle on a closure day, please call (510) 293-7023 for assistance. If you require assistance during a closure, please contact our non-emergency line
