Los Banos Police Department

Los Banos Police Department

Welcome to the Los Banos Police Department’s webpage. As a life-long resident of Los Banos, I value the small town atmosphere of our close-knit community and I am excited about the thought of seeing Los Banos become a vibrant, larger city. I believe the Police Department’s role in our daily lives is to be professional, courteous, and respectful to all those we encounter. But, I also believe our role as law enforcement officers requires a strict adherence to the law and an uncompromising pursuit of those who desire to engage in criminal activity.

I am proud to work with a group of dedicated, professional men and women who share the same vision: maintaining the safety and security of the Los Banos community. However, we recognize the Police Department alone cannot achieve this goal. Your involvement is crucial to our success. Your observations, descriptions and prompt reporting of suspicious or criminal activity to the Police Department will go a long way in keeping Los Banos safe.

Our Department motto is simple, yet to the point: We have pride in the service we provide to everyone, and integrity in all our actions, more commonly referred to as:

“Pride in Service, Integrity in Action.”

Thank you for visiting our website. If you are not able to find the answer on our web page, please send a message to me using my email address gary.brizzee@losbanos.org. We’ll do our best to assist you.

Since inception approximately 15,000 kids and hundreds of volunteers and coaches have participated in PAL programs.

Objectives

Los Banos PAL has two objectives, the first is to provide quality, adult supervised programs that will foster a closer relationship between Law Enforcement Officers and the youth of Los Banos, encouraging a closer cooperation between the youth and the officers. This builds both understanding and respect.
