Taylor Mill Police Department Receives Fifth Consecutive CALEA Accreditation: The Taylor Mill Police Department is proud to announce that it has been awarded its fifth accreditation from the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies, Inc. (CALEA). The CALEA accreditation is a rigorous process that involves meeting a comprehensive set of professional standards designed to enhance the delivery of public safety services. Achieving accreditation requires demonstrating compliance with policies and procedures across critical areas, including accountability, transparency, and community engagement. Chief James Mills emphasized the significance of this accomplishment, stating, “Earning our fifth CALEA accreditation is a reflection of the dedication and professionalism of our officers and staff. This process ensures that we uphold the highest standards in law enforcement, which translates to safer neighborhoods and stronger trust with the community we serve.” According to Chief Mills, maintaining CALEA accreditation is vital for the Taylor Mill Police Department because it provides a framework for continuous improvement. “Accreditation helps us align our practices with the best in the field, ensuring that we stay proactive and responsive to the evolving needs of our residents. It’s not just about recognition; it’s about delivering the quality of service our community deserves.” The Taylor Mill Police Department first achieved CALEA accreditation in 2010, and this milestone marks its fifth consecutive accreditation cycle. The department is among a select group of agencies nationwide to receive this distinction, and one of only three in the Commonwealth of Kentucky, reinforcing its position as a leader in law enforcement excellence. The Taylor Mill Police Department extends its gratitude to the community for their support and partnership, which are essential to achieving this honor. The department remains committed to fostering transparency, building trust, and ensuring public safety for all.

Save the Date: GoldStars Tribute Wall at Pride Park

The City of Taylor Mill is proud to announce the GoldStars Tribute Wall, a traveling memorial honoring heroes of the Gulf War, Iraq War, and Afghanistan War, will be visiting Pride Park in Taylor Mill, KY from Friday, May 4, 2018 through Monday, May 7, 2018.  The purpose of the GoldStars Tribute Wall is to bring healing to Veterans, and the family and friends of those who died or who remain missing as a result of war. It is our hope that the memorial will help heal some of the wounds of war, and help educate the community about the Gulf War, Iraq War, and Afghanistan War, and its impact on our nation and our Veterans.

The GoldStars Tribute Wall will be open to the public, 24 hours a day beginning with setup on the 4th of May, through disassembly on the 7th of May.  Within its time at Pride Park, we will hold daily events, which will include among other things an Opening and Closing Ceremony.  

The GoldStars Tribute Wall project is also seeking volunteers who are interested in providing security, guidance, and emotional support to visitors during the duration of its visit at Pride Park, which means we also have many volunteer opportunities for anyone wanting to be more intimately involved in the project.  The opportunities are endless for those of you wishing to be involved.
