Welcome to the Glenwood Springs Police Department
website. This website was designed and is maintained by one of
our Detectives, Matt Gronbeck. I think it demonstrates that our
personnel are young, energetic, technically proficient, and
enjoy opportunities to provide information and service to our
community and visitors.
In this time of national financial downturn we
find that technology can provide some relief to constrained
budgets through systems like our on-line reporting for certain
incidents. The balancing act becomes how to maximize ease of
access and the convenience of reporting through phone or website
with the basic premise that each call for service is important
and deserves personal attention and contact. GSPD is committed
to maintaining high-quality customer service, proactive Patrol,
strong traffic enforcement and a cooperative approach to problem
solving with citizens, businesses and visitors.
The methods involved in our day-to-day
operations have certainly changed a lot since I began my career
here in 1984, but the basic premise of protecting people and
property still applies. Our Department strives to provide
extensive training for all of our Officers, and commits to
mentoring each Officer to a level of investigative competence
that is often reserved for full-time Detectives. We take pride
in an Officer’s ability to handle calls from “a barking dog to a
burglary in progress”, and we work to provide them the tools and
assistance to be successful in all the services we provide. It
is a pleasure each day to work with the dedicated men and women
of GSPD and do our part for the City of Glenwood Springs.
