TO SERVE & PROTECT
Madisonville police Department
The mission of the Madisonville Police Department is to enhance the quality of life in our community by working in partnership with the community and in accordance with constitutional rights to enforce the laws, preserve the peace, reduce fear, and provide for a safe environment.
Citizen's Police Academy
The Citizen's Police Academy is a revolutionary concept in law enforcement that provides citizens with a better understanding of the role of law enforcement. The Citizen's Police Academy will offer citizens insight into how members of The Madisonville Police Department perform their duties and promote better police/community relations. To be considered for the Citizen's Police Academy, an applicant must be a resident of or work in the City of Madisonville or Hopkins County, pass a criminal history check, possess a valid Kentucky driver’s license, be at least 18 years of age and have no prior felony convictions.
Safe Exchange Zone
MPD has created a "Safe Exchange Zone" to provide an exchange location for Internet purchase exchanges, as well as, child custody exchanges. The two spaces are just outside the main entrance to the Police Department and under 24-hour video surveillance. There are no time restrictions when transactions are to occur, but we advise for exchanges to take place during daylight hours. You do not need to make an appointment to make transactions.
