The Newberg-Dundee Police Department is a full service and contemporary agency with 35 sworn police officers. Our officers support both the Patrol Division and the Special Operations Division.
The Patrol Divison includes, the School Resource Officer, Traffic Safety Team, Canine Units, and Community Outreach Program.
The Special Operations Division includes Computer Forensics, Special Investigations, and the Community Response Team.
The Support Services & Communications Division includes the Newberg-Dundee 9-1-1 Communications Center which provides emergency dispatch services (police, fire and medical, 24 hours a day, seven days a week). The Records & Evidence Section is staffed by two full time staff members.
Public safety is provided to both cities of Dundee and Newberg. Both are growing communities, with Newberg being the second largest city in Yamhill County. Newberg’s population increased approximately 18% from 18,064 in 2000 to 22,068 in 2010. Newberg's population as of 2021 is listed as 25,477 while the population of the City of Dundee was 3,238.
The inner operations of the police department are nearly all automated. With computer terminals in the patrol cars, officers can write police reports and search databases without having to rely on dispatch or spending time in the office. The implementation of automated systems has improved the efficiency of department operations, allowing officers more time for patrol, investigation and apprehension of suspects.
The Newberg-Dundee Police Department is one of approximately 24 accredited police departments in Oregon. This is a significant accomplishment considering it requires the agency to comply with 100 recognized standards for the law enforcement profession as adopted by the Oregon Accreditation Alliance for Law Enforcement.
The police department is responsible for the protection of property and safety for over 28,000 citizens, approximately 40,000 motorists (daily average), over 5,000 students enrolled in the Newberg School District and approximately 3500 students enrolled at George Fox University. Our agency is committed to the successful planning and implementation of staffing, public safety programs, technology enhancements, equipment and training to provide the best public safety services that we can. Our mission is to reduce crime, the fear of crime and enhance the livability of the communities of Newberg and Dundee.
