Welcome from Police Chief Potts

The men and women of the Ankeny Police Department take great pride in serving our citizens and community. Our goal is to build partnerships with the community we serve and provide safety and security to everyone in our community. The City of Ankeny is one of the fastest-growing cities in the country. Through community-based and intelligence-led policing, we are vigilant and committed to improving the quality of life as our city grows. As invested members of the community, the Ankeny Police Department understands how relationship-based policing can benefit and impact everyone.

Our department believes in extensive education and training in order to provide the best professional law enforcement services.

I am very proud to be a member of the Ankeny Police Department.
