Bismarck Police Department Accreditation Invites Public Comment

A 60-day period is now open for public comment on the Bismarck Police Department's performance and quality of service.

The Accreditation Public Comment Portal will be open from August 6th to October 7th. This is part of a new Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies (CALEA) process through which the Bismarck Police Department has been accredited since 1991. It is during this time we ask the public to leave comments or suggestions for the police department. Law enforcement agencies must comply with more than 350 public safety standards to maintain its accreditation status with CALEA.

The portal can be accessed at https://cimrs2.calea.org/678or through
