"SERVING BUFFALO COUNTY WITH THE ASSISTANCE OF OUR CITIZENS!"
Mission Statement:
"The mission of the Buffalo County Sheriff's Department
is to enhance the quality of life in our county by working
cooperatively with the public and within the framework of
the U.S. Constitution to enforce the law, preserve the peace,
reduce fear and provide for a safe environment for all of
our citizens."
Department Structure:
The Buffalo County Sheriff's Office is organized into two
divisions, Operations and Support Services, under the direction
of the Sheriff who is elected for a four (4) year term. The
Operations Division consists of Civil Process, Warrant Section,
Investigative Section, and Patrol Section and is currently
managed by a Captain. The Support Services Section consists
of the Sheriff's Staff Section, Community Services Section,
Training Section, Communications Section, and Detention Center
Section and is currently managed by the Chief Deputy.
LOCATION:
The department offices are located at 2025 Avenue A in Kearney,
Buffalo County, Nebraska.
Regular business hours are 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday
- Friday.
A unique joint venture with the Buffalo County Sheriff's
Office and the Kearney
Police Department was formed in July
1993 when both agencies co-located to a remodeled building
in downtown Kearney. By sharing resources, both agencies save
taxpayers' money as well as establishing a good working relationship
between the agencies and their employees.
The Sheriff's office oversees the dispatch duties and answers
911 calls for officers of both agencies.
The Police Department oversees the records and data processing
functions for both agencies.
The Buffalo County Sheriff's Office responds calls that occur
in the county (outside of Kearney city limits). The Kearney
Police Department responds to calls that occur within the
city limits.
Both agencies assist each other as needed as well as working
with law enforcement officers from other local jurisdictions
in Buffalo County, Public Safety at the University of Nebraska
at Kearney, and the Nebraska State Patrol.
