MPD offers a Police Citizen Academy for 8 weeks generally during the fall months. The course consists of 2 hour classes one night per week. This program is designed to foster a spirit of cooperation between members of the community and the police department in a friendly learning environment. Those interested in exploring the inner mechanisms of the MPD will participate in many "hands on" topics such as CPR, riding in the police cruiser during an officer's shift and a gun safety course prior to a field trip to the gun range.
Each week, academy students will delve into a different aspect of police work. Students can participate as much or as little as they choose, making the academy a very stress-free and beneficial experience.
You are invited to join the Miami Police Department's 5th Annual Citizen's Academy September 7th to October 26th, 2017. The MPD and Chief "H.T." Anderson would like to invite area citizens to participate in the Academy.

Our Dispatch Center is operational 24 hours a day, seven days a week and is the answering point for all 9-1-1 calls in Ottawa County as well as the dispatch center for several other communities for police, fire, and ambulance. Our duties include telephone communications, radio dispatch, and operating the law enforcement teletype computer. The teletype is used to access information for law enforcement officers to use such as drivers license information, vehicle registration and to check if a vehicle is stolen, or if a person may be wanted by the police. Our job, primarily, is to receive calls for assistance, and then relay the information given to us to the appropriate service for response.
The Detective Division is comprised of five detectives. Three detectives are assigned to day shift, one to evening shift, and the fifth investigates drug crimes. The detectives have a scheduled rotation to provide coverage during off hours.
The Miami Police Department refers to its Patrol Division as the "Operations Division." Operations is the primary provider of police services for the residents of Miami. It deploys 21 officers to approximately 9.71 square miles of the city on a 24-hour basis. Operations personnel are prepared to respond to both emergency and non-emergency calls for service in each of the city's patrol districts. The patrol area is comprised of four districts. The division is commanded by a police captain and each shift is supervised by a police sergeant and corporal.
The records clerk has the responsibility of accurately processing and maintaining all departmental reports (i.e., traffic citations, offense complaints, accident reports to allow for easy access and review). The clerk must assure the safety and confidentiality of all law enforcement records. The records clerk also assists the public and other agencies in obtaining copies of the proper reports they request to see. The clerk also maintains accurate Uniform Crime Report (UCR) records that are sent in to the State of Oklahoma by keeping totals and types of crimes committed within the police department's jurisdiction.

Miami Police Chief Haralson initiated this program in 2011, as an outreach tool to the community. The purpose of the Citizen Police Academy is to foster a spirit of cooperation and understanding between members of the community and the police department in a friendly learning environment.
This class has been designed to build a bond of mutual trust and respect between the Police Department and our citizens and to bring the police and community closer together in a setting that offers both training and understanding to each participant. Additionally, the academy highlights the importance of citizen participation in public safety by educating the public about their own awareness as concerned citizens so that we may continue to work together towards making our community the safest possible.
Those interested in exploring the inner mechanisms of the Miami Police Department will participate in many "hands on" topics such as learning CPR, experience riding in a police cruiser, and how police respond to calls and motor vehicle accidents. Participation also includes one Saturday field trip to the gun range to learn firearms safety with live fire.
The Miami Police Department has established a Chaplain Corps to serve the men and women of the Police Department and the citizens of Miami by providing pastoral and/or support services to the department's personnel and city citizens in crisis situations. The Chaplain Corps seeks, as one of its goals, to promote a positive relationship between the Police Department, the City of Miami, and community members.
In order to supplement patrol forces, MPD trains, equips, and deploys reserve police officers to assist with the needs of the Police Department. These officers must work by the same guidelines and laws as regular full time officers. Reserve officers are generally not compensated; however, circumstances may allow payment for certain duties.
The Miami Police Department provides a Citizen Ride-a-Long Program to form a closer relationship and better understanding with the citizens of the community. Members of the community who meet certain minimal criteria may participate in the Ride-a-Long Program by accompanying participating officers on their shifts.

The Oklahoma State Legislature finds that sex offenders who commit predatory acts against children and persons who prey on others as a result of mental illness pose a high risk of re-offending after release from custody. The legislature further finds that the privacy interest of persons adjudicated guilty of these crimes is less important than the state's interest in public safety. The legislature additionally finds that a system of registration will permit law enforcement officials to identify and alert the public when necessary for protecting public safety.
All sex offenders, as defined in 57 O.S. Supp. 2008, Section 582, have a duty to register with the local law enforcement authority having jurisdiction in the area where the person intends to reside or to stay for more than seven days in accordance with Oklahoma State Statute 57 O.S. Supp 1997, Section 583. If a sex offender changes address, the offender shall notify the appropriate agencies in writing no later than three days before the offender establishes residence or is temporarily domiciled at the new address.
If the sex offender changes address to another state, the offender shall register the new address with the appropriate agencies in the new state not later than 10 days before the offender establishes residency or is temporarily domiciled in the new state, if the new state has a registration requirement.
The Miami Police Department only provides registration information for offenders living within the city limits of Miami, Oklahoma.

Stormwater pollution from point sources and nonpoint sources is a challenging water quality problem. Unlike pollution from industry or sewage treatment facilities, which is caused by a discrete number of sources, stormwater pollution is caused by the daily activities of people everywhere. Rainwater and snowmelt run off streets, lawns, farms, and construction and industrial sites and pick up fertilizers, dirt, pesticides, oil and grease, and many other pollutants on the way to our rivers, lakes, and coastal waters. Stormwater runoff is our most common cause of water pollution. Because stormwater pollution is caused by so many different activities, traditional regulatory controls will only go so far.
Education and outreach are key components to any successful stormwater program.
Below is a list of, but not limited to, Organizations that have constructed and supplied the Brochures and Flyers.

It has been established that Nonpoint Source Pollution (NPS Pollution) is the largest source of water pollution. Most nonpoint sources are related to land use activities. For example, rainwater washes over farmlands and carries topsoil and residues from farm chemicals into nearby streams. Primary nonpoint sources of water pollution include runoff from agriculture, urban areas, mining, forestry and construction activities. Pollution prevention, as it relates to NPS pollution, starts with understanding how everyday human activities affect the quality of air, land and water.
This has been intended to educate students in kindergarten through ninth grade to help them understand the definition of water pollution using the basic principles of science, mathematics, fun and games.
As new materials are produced, they will be added to the Kidz Korner.
