Office of the Chief

The Office of the Chief is responsible for the overall management, direction, planning, and coordination of all Ontario Police Department programs and operations. This includes special studies,
research, budgeting, and complex staff assistance as they relate to the delivery of all police services. The Chief of Police is responsible for administering the Department in accordance with applicable laws and regulations and ensuring that organizational objectives are met.
The City of Ontario’s unique diversity shapes our public safety mission. With the City’s increasing residential population, major events held throughout the City, and a rise in calls for service, the Ontario Police Department faces ever-evolving challenges and exciting opportunities. The Ontario Police Department continues to build strong partnerships with neighborhoods, City Council, City Departments, Social Service agencies, School Districts, Ontario Businesses, Faith Establishments, and the many diverse people who call Ontario home.
The Office of the Chief is comprised of the Chief of Police, Deputy Chief of Police, five Bureau Commanders, Internal Affairs, Intel, and Media Relations/Public Information Office. Each Bureau Commander is responsible for operations, functions, productivity, and accountability of each division.
