FEDERAL WAY POLICE DEPARTMENT
THE DEPARTMENT'S VISION AND VALUES:
The Federal Way Police Department is a community -based police department that
represents the special qualities and features of the City of Federal Way. The police
department will inspire a sense of confidence and security in our citizens through
professionalism, citizen involvement and creative approaches to public safety. The police
department will be distinguished as a caring, competent, firm, fair, accessible, and
innovative organization that actively seeks opportunities to help citizens. The police
department will be a part of rather than apart from the community, fostering an efficient
citizen - police partnership to insure a safe and secure city.

2010.

inception of the department in 1996.
• Decrease in crime in seven Index Crime categories: Homicide, Rape, Robbery,
Felony Assault, Burglary, Larceny/Theft, and Auto Theft.
• Reduction of crime in downtown and the surrounding area.

minutes for all calls- for - service.
Safe and Secure Community
• Lead the successful state effort to enact a secondhand metals legislation to
regulate secondhand buyers of precious metals and jewelry.
• Enacted a moratorium on medical marijuana dispensaries and collective gardens
and helped prevent the problems other cities have seen with dispensary- related
crimes.
• Implemented a Burglary Emphasis plan conducting special field operations in
various neighborhoods using timely intelligence information provided by Crime
Analysis and Prevention Specialist (CAPS) Unit. Emphasis resulted in numerous
arrests.
• Planned Park Emphasis operations during summer months to increase police
presence and conduct specific enforcement.
• Enhanced safety through the Registered Sex Offender Verification Program.

technological improvements and training of patrol and records personnel.
• Moving to NIBRS provides more information to the agency, the state, researchers

influence public safety.
• Federal Way has met the effective mandate date ahead of majority of law
enforcement agencies in the region.

program.
Enhance Animal Services

brochure in their "new resident" packets.

renewal compliance.
