About the Department

Welcome Message from Chief Sylvester

The Men and Women of the Richland Hills Police Department are proud to serve this community and welcome you to our website. We have put together a snapshot into our Department and the employees who are dedicated to creating a safe and enjoyable community for you to live, work and raise your family. We are committed to achieving community engagement with our citizens through forming partnerships, being transparent and inclusive in our policing models and standards.

I invite you to learn more about your department, our services, and our opportunities. Connect with us on social media through Facebook, attend one of our community events or stop by the Police Department and meet with our staff.

My commitment to you, as your Police Chief, is to strive to attain our defined Mission Statement in our everyday policing philosophies as well as working towards enhancing those standards for our future.
