Kent County Parks Police

![]() ![]() |
The park police unit was established in 2003 with the formation of Millennium Park which runs along the Grand River on the county’s west side. This unit consists of a fulltime sergeant and up to 10 part-time seasonal park officers. All of the officers have full police authority to enforce the county park ordinances, conservation laws, and state and federal laws. |

Park officers use a variety of patrol methods within the park from the primary foot patrol, bicycle, all-terrain vehicle, off-road vehicle, patrol car, and boat. Officers are primarily concerned with the safety and security of the park patrons. You can find a park officer patrolling the Millennium Park almost all of the time when it is open to the public.
Below are a few of the statistics for the park officers over the last few years.

These are the combined patrols within Millennium Park for the areas of the beach, parking lots, playground, and fishing areas. Note: In 2003 the park opened in August so a full park season was not realized until 2004.
