BAY ST. LOUIS POLICE

ADMINISTRATION

The City of Bay St. Louis is an outstanding community to live and to work in, and it is an honor to serve as your Chief of Police.  As we move ahead, I look forward to meeting our obligation to provide the best police services possible.  As we develop programs, implement new technology and take on new initatives, our department joins the rest of the Bay St. Louis city government and regards our citizens as our highest priority.  Our primary function is to ensure the safety of the people who live, work and visit the City of Bay St. Louis.

Our priority is not just writing a crime report after a crime has occurred, it is working with the community to prevent crime and solve community problems.  I invite you to become partners with us in making our neighborhoods a safe and better place to live as our community continues to move forward.

Citizens may get involved by:

• Participating in a heighborhood watch group or improvement committee

• Volunteering at a neighborhood school or youth organization

• Staying informed and getting involved with community issues that matter to you

• Being an observant and a considerate neighbor

The men and women of the Bay St. Louis Police Department look forward to meeting our upcoming challenges and provide the community with unmatched excellence in law enforcement and community services.

My office is located at 698 Highway 90, adjacent to City Hall.  I am available anytime to assist you with any matters that you might have, or just to visit.  You may call me at (228) 467-5476, email me at mdenardo@baystlouis-ms.gov, or you can come to the police station.  I look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,

Michael J. De Nardo
