Citizens Police Academy

The Dublin Police annually hosts the Citizens Police Academy, a 12-week program that gives participants insight into the profession of law enforcement and the operations of the Dublin Police Department.

Topics during academy sessions focus on a wide variety of policing activities, including criminal investigations, dispatching for 911 services, community outreach and engagement, the arrest process, search and seizure, traffic stops and more.

The class is open to Dublin residents and non-residents; however, residents are given preference when the class roster is being selected. All applicants must be 18 years or older.

Classes held Thursday evenings | Aug. 21 to Nov. 6, 2025

Public Records Request Overview

In order to support faster response and better tracking of requests, the City of Dublin uses JustFOIA to collect, respond to and manage public information requests.

Why JustFOIA?

JustFOIA is a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) online application that helps streamline the open records request process for the community and improve efficiencies in getting requested information quickly and accurately.

The application lets community members submit requests for all city records, including police reports. Commonly requested information includes accident reports, copies of resolutions and body-camera video.
