Welcome to the Denville Township Police Department's website.  This site was designed as another means for our Department to interact with our community and to provide you with important and useful information.  We appreciate your interest in our Department and welcome any comments or suggestions that you may have.

The Department is currently staffed by 35 full time sworn law enforcement officers and 10 full time civilian employees (this includes dispatchers, secretaries, parking enforcement officers and an animal control officer), as well as several part time civilian employees (dispatchers).  The department serves 16,000+ residents over a 12.6 square mile area in north central New Jersey.  Due to it's central location in Morris County, as well as the fact that the Township is bisected by several highways (Rt. 80, Rt. 46, Rt. 10 and Rt. 53) and passenger rail lines (NJ Transit's Morris & Essex and Boonton Lines), it has been dubbed "The Hub of Morris County".
