Letter from the Chief

I would like to welcome you to the website of the Waller Police Department. We are a municipal agency that serves a population of approximately 2,100 citizens. The city is located along the Highway 290 corridor and is approximately 30 miles northwest of Houston. City of Waller is divided by Harris and Waller Counties. Our work force consists of seven full-time sworn officers, four part-time sworn officers, and one civilian employee.

The mission of the Waller Police Department is to provide service to the citizens and visitors of the City of Waller by working in partnership with the community to:

  Protect life, liberty, and property

  Prevent crime

  Preserve civil order by enforcing the statutes of the United States of America, the State of Texas, Harris and Waller Counties, and City of Waller’s ordinances

 Provide assistance and service through education, information, and referrals

I am committed to building a relationship between the community and the police, whether taking into consideration the Homeland Security issues of our entire nation or own local problems

As the community and the police department work together in being observant in our neighborhood and staying active in our children’s lives as they go through school, we can make our community a safer and better place to live.

Thank you for viewing the police department web site, and please feel free to call or stop by, whether it’s to ask a question, if you have a problem, or just to visit.

James B. Fulton
Chief of Police

COMMUNITY FOCUSED PROGRAMS

FORMING YOUR OWN NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH

The police department cannot fight crime and disorder alone. It requires a partnership between the community and the police department. Only by working together can we make our community a safe place for ourselves and our children. Remember, the Waller Police Department has only 11+ sets of eyes and ears. The City of Waller has over 2,100 sets of eyes and ears.

While the City of Waller is a safe community that is ideal for families, no community can be completely free of crime. As our community grows, volunteer crime watch associations bring neighbors together in a unified effort to fight existing crime and disorder. They also help to prevent crime from coming into our neighborhoods.
