EVERSON POLICE DEPARTMENT MISSION STATEMENT
The primary mission of the Everson Police Department is to coordinate and
lead the efforts within the boundaries to preserve the public peace, protect the
rights of persons and property, prevent crime and generally provide assistance
to citizens in urgent situations. The Department is responsible for the
enforcement of all Federal Laws, Washington State Laws, and City Ordinances
within the boundaries of the City of Everson and the City of Nooksack.
The Department must enforce the law in a fair and impartial manner, recognizing
both the statutory and judicial limitation of police authority and the
constitutional rights of all persons. It is not the role of the Department to
legislate, render legal judgements, or punish.
The Department serves the people of Everson and Nooksack by providing law
enforcement service in a professional and courteous manner and it is to these
people that the Department is ultimately responsible.
