Granville Police Department

The Patrol Division is the backbone of any Police Department. These officers are available 24 hours per day seven days a week. They handle all types of calls ranging from minor informational complaints (such as directions) all the way up through life threatening situations. All emergency dispatches come through our Dispatch Center (Northampton State Police Dispatch Center). So whether you have a minor problem, or an emergency, when you call either our dispatch center or our Department directly your initial contact will most likely be with a member of the Patrol Division.  

The Patrol Division performs all the traditional functions of a motorized patrol force. In addition, the Division is extremely service oriented. The philosophy of the Patrol Division is high visibility and proactive policing through officer initiated activity.

 The Patrol Division's fleet consists of one marked police cruiser (Cheverolet Tahoe) and one unmarked (Ford Crown Victoria). All cruisers are equipped radar units, and various other equipment.  At the current time the Granville Police Department is working towards adding mobile computers unit's.  The computers will allows access to departmental information as well as motor vehicle records, and NCIC information. When the Granville Police Department gets the mobile computer unit's officers will be able to write reports from the cruisers allowing them to stay out on patrol.

The Granville Police Department Records Divison is operated by Lt. Scott Flebotte. Available by appointment.
