Chief's Message

It is my pleasure to welcome you to the Beachwood Police Department website. Within this site, you will find helpful information about our police department, its structure, its services, and the men and women that make up our organization. 

The Borough of Beachwood is a great place to live in great part because of the relationship our police department has with its community. It is also a great place to work, as I have the honor and privilege of working alongside the talented men and women of the Beachwood Police Department who come to work daily with a collective commitment of making a difference in our community.

In addition to the hard work and diligence of our first responders, our greatest asset in the battle against crime is the watchful citizens who pay close attention to the happenings in their neighborhood. Having concerned and attentive community members who call the police when suspicious activity occurs in their neighborhood provides police with the BEST opportunity to prevent crimes, apprehend suspects, and keep our community safe. 

Becoming the Chief of Police in the town that I grew up in is one of the greatest honors of my life.  It is an honor and a privilege to continue to serve the residents in the Borough of Beachwood in this role.  I have not and will not take this privilege lightly.  I want to thank the residents for all your continued support of our department as we all work together to keep the Borough of Beachwood a safe place to live and raise a family.

Sincerely,
Daniel J. Altman
Chief of Police
