About the Pleasant Valley Police Department

The Pleasant Valley Police Department serves the residents and businesses of Pleasant Valley with a commitment to professionalism, transparency, and community safety.

The Village of Pleasant Valley was founded in 1961 and became a fourth-class city in 1963. At that time, the police department consisted of an elected Marshal and three police officers who provided law enforcement services to the growing community.

Today, the department has expanded to include twenty-five positions and is led by a professional Chief of Police. The Chief is appointed annually by the Mayor with the consent of the Board of Aldermen. The department is currently led by Chief Jared McGinley, who oversees the department’s operations and commitment to public safety.

In addition to traditional law enforcement services, the department prioritizes communication with the community. In 2020, the Pleasant Valley Police Department began actively utilizing Facebook to share important information with residents, including crime updates, public service announcements, severe weather alerts, traffic incidents, road closures, and other important community notifications.

Through professional policing and open communication, the Pleasant Valley Police Department continues to work closely with residents to maintain a safe and informed community.
