The policies and procedures of the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department are living documents that set forth the standards, values, and expectations of commissioned officers and civilian employees. The policies and procedures must be continuously reviewed and updated.
The department has started to share and publish its policies and procedures online, as the SLMPD builds trust with its community. Our goal, is to have most of the policies and procedures online and available for everyone to view.
