Mission Statement
The mission of the Spring Garden Township Police Department is to enhance the quality of life of all people
by working in partnership with the community to protect life and property through the delivery of
professional law enforcement services while maintaining the highest level of integrity and assuring individual
constitutional rights.
Lets’ Send a Strong Message to the Criminal Element
Do you own a surveillance camera that records footage such as from home
camera systems like Blink, Arlo, and Ring?
When a crime takes place in a public area, we often spend a lot of time
going door to door to see if residents / business owners have security
cameras and asking them if they would allow us to review the footage. With
the Camera Registration Program, we are able to save time by reaching out to
our residents / business owners that we already know have cameras and are willing to
help-potentially aiding in the apprehension of the suspect(s) responsible for the crime
being investigated. Participation in the Program is completely voluntary.
The process for registering your camera is simple and takes only a few minutes. You will be asked to provide
basic information regarding your camera. The registration form can be found by going to the Spring Garden
Township Police Department’s website at www.sgtpd.org. Once on the website, go to the “Forms Tab” and
then to the “Camera Registration Form”.

Turn your camera into a crime-fighting tool and let us send a strong message to the criminal element that
the Spring Garden Community and Police Department are working together as a team to keep our
community safe.
