Rochdale Village Public Safety Department
A safe and secure community depends on the cooperation and assistance of every cooperator and all staff to be aware of possible safety hazards and of the potential for crime in the community. Crime prevention and prompt reporting of unsafe conditions should be the objectives of every resident and employer/employee in the Rochdale community.
Rochdale’s policy is that residents and employees must report safety hazards, crimes, loss of property, illness, or injury. Incidents can be reported to any officer or by calling or visiting the Office of Public Safety.
You can also email complaints to egaither@rochdalevillage.com to be forwarded to the proper authority. Please write “complaint” in subject line. Please include date, time, and location of incident. Emergencies should not be emailed; emails are read and forwarded Monday thru Friday 8am to 4pm.
