Community Policing
The need to close the gap between the community and the Sheriffs that serve them has become increasingly important in recent years. Typically, law-abiding citizens only get to know the Deputies in their community through the lens of public spectacles or coverage in the press. The Montrose County Sheriff’s Office is committed to forming a more personal level of connectivity with our neighbors. By making contact with more of the people in town, we will form a relationship based on trust and respect for one another. This level of contact will make crime prevention and problem-solving easier. Working as a team, the Sheriffs and Citizens can make Cedar Creek a safer and more enjoyable place to live.
Career Information
The Montrose County Sheriff’s Office is seeking community-minded individuals with a strong sense of service. Though not all jobs are sworn officer positions, all applicants must be of the highest moral character, pass a criminal background check, and a pre-employment drug test. Deputies must pass the academy course, and will be subject to ongoing training. Officers must be 21 years or older to apply, have a current driver’s license, and a clean criminal record. Previous experience is a plus but is not required.
