Waxhaw Police Department

The department is currently made up of 20 full-time officers and 5 part-time (or auxiliary) officers. We have four divisions: Administrative, Patrol, Detectives, and Animal Control. As we update our Facebook, we will provide information on the officers and the job they do for the department.

The officers of the Waxhaw Police Department are dedicated public servants who are passionate about their work and community. We as a department are constantly trying to improve as we participate in training around the state as well as within our own training program.

We work closely with all other law enforcement agencies within Union County to combat problems that face all communities. We can not do this alone, we need the help of the citizens to make us successful.

It is our goal to continue to reduce crime and solve quality of life problems so that the citizens and others who pass through our town can feel safe to function without the fear of harassment and violence that often victimizes our citizens. The only way to ensure this goal is met is for the Police Department to form a partnership with our community. This partnership must include residents, businesses, public service agencies and the faith community in order to be a success. It takes the entire community to combat the problems of today.
