On behalf of the dedicated men and women of the Moscow Police Department, I welcome you to our website and thank you for your interest in our agency.

The Moscow Police Department is committed to keeping the City of Moscow and the University of Idaho a safe and peaceful community where one can seek a college degree, go to work, visit, and recreate while enjoying living without apprehension. Our community also offers cultural attractions such as the Farmer’s Market, Art Walk, the Renaissance Fair, the Lionel Hampton Jazz Festival and many others. Our department members recognize and value the responsibility of serving our community respectfully and helpfully and the importance of preserving the public trust as avowed in our oath of office and code of ethics.

The department is especially thankful to our supportive community and their involvement in ensuring mission success. We appreciate and understand we could not fulfill our obligations without the vital assistance of the Mayor, City Council, and associated City departments.

We have a unique opportunity and obligation through our profession to be a responsive, caring, and ethical representative for our City government. Our core values of integrity, compassion, excellence, pride, and service express our conduct and relationship to those we have sworn to serve.

Every member of the Moscow Police Department is proud to safeguard our nationally recognized, inclusive City and preserve the quality of the community we all hold dear. Thank you for visiting our website. Please do not hesitate to call on any of us if you have any questions or concerns. We welcome and encourage your suggestions and comments.

Respectfully,

Anthony Dahlinger
Chief of Police
