Magazine Police Department

The full-time police chief position is now the full-time Magazine Sergeant position who acts as the police chief, works out of the Police Department offices in City Hall, attends City Council meetings and works with the mayor, and provides law enforcement services within the corporate boundaries of the city. In August of 2025, Logan County and the City of Magazine entered into an Amended Agreement adding a full-time Magazine Deputy who patrols in the evenings and who splits School Resource Officer duties with the Magazine Sergeant. Magazine also has several part-time deputies who are paid for by the city and work out of the Police Department offices in City Hall. We are very excited about the Interlocal Agreement and we are honored with the trust that the Magazine Mayor and City Council put in us to sign this agreement. We also have an agreement with the Magazine School District that pays for a part-time deputy to work as a school resource officer. Non-emergency: (479) 963-3271. Dial 911 for emergencies.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau (ACS 2023), Magazine city, AR has an estimated population of 893.
