The Avon Police Department would like to congratulate our recently retired police officers and wish them the best on their new adventures. Officers Jennifer Brahaum, Tony Fite, and Greg Schuster all served our community for many years and will be missed dearly. We thank each of them for their commitment and dedication to providing public safety to our community and making Avon a wonderful safe place to live.

The Avon Police Department and the Avon Police Department Merit Commission recently certified our latest hiring list. After all the testing and scoring, we finished with a final list of 30 potential police officer candidates. Our goal was to fulfill six (6) vacancies from this hiring list by the end of 2022. So far, we have been able to fill two of the six vacancies, and our detectives continue to conduct background investigations on the remaining candidates. The 14th annual Avon Police Department Citizens Police Academy is wrapping up this year as our “cadets” complete the course by participating in a ride-along with our police officers. The course has been a fan favorite for many years now and has been instrumental in developing and maintaining community relations among our officers and the community. The course is one night a week for 8 weeks, and attendees receive an in-depth look at real policing. The course allows our participants to learn about all the working parts of the police department, operate a police vehicle, fire training weapons, how to use a Taser, K9 demonstrations, and the proper way to make vehicle stops just to name a few.
