WHAT SETS US APART

We do things a little differently than your average emergency services department. Unlike most jurisdictions, our services are not separated into different departments; police, fire and 911 are all part of a single, streamlined team. This allows each service to work more closely, train more efficiently, and communicate together to provide the optimal service to those in Alpharetta. For the community we serve, that translates into low crime rates, faster responses to emergency calls, and the lowest possible ISO rating so homeowners enjoy lower insurance rates.

WHO WE ARE

Our professional Public Safety Officials and civilian support staff are united by their concern for those who live, work, and play in Alpharetta and are connected through our core values:

 

Courageous Spirit

The risks of your job are real. Persevere in the face of adversity.

 

Selfless Service

Put the welfare of the public and your team above your own. Add value to others.

 

Excellence With Integrity

Do what is right and do it well.
