Message from the Chief

Draft

Talala is a small town, and we police it that way — by knowing our neighbors, answering when you call, and treating people with respect. Community policing here is not a slogan. It is showing up at Town Hall, at the school events, and on Watova Street. If you need us in an emergency, dial 911. For everything else during office hours, call the non-emergency line. We are here to serve.
