About the DepartmentPolice Department Exterior Night

The Moline Police Department, which was first established in 1872, serves and protects the citizens and visitors of the City of Moline. We strive to maintain the highest level of professionalism and integrity. Our agency employs up to 81 full-time, sworn police officers and 20 civilian/non-sworn employees.

In 2007, construction was completed on a 67,000 sq. ft. building to house the police department. In addition to dozens of offices and meeting rooms, the new police station boasts a secured, climate-controlled parking garage, a weight/exercise room, and its own indoor firing range. The Illinois State Police Crime Scene Investigations Unit also has an office in the building.

Our agency handled handles approximately 60,000 calls for service annually. We serve over 43,000 residents in an area of roughly 16.6 square miles.

The Moline Police Department is an accredited agency through the Illinois Law Enforcement Accreditation Program.  The department first received accreditation in March 2023.
