Sugar Land Police Department

Beat managers, each a lieutenant, and assigned crime prevention officers anchor the Sugar Land Police Department's work in Fort Bend County, Texas, and staff hold monthly beat accountability meetings plus weekly crime focus meetings to track crime trends and quality-of-life problems. The Patrol Division gives the initial response to incidents and offenses. A bike patrol team rides through parks, neighborhoods, special events and around Sugar Land Town Center on standard and electric mountain bikes. Within the Administration and Technical Services Bureau, the Support Division oversees crime prevention, records, recruiting, training and a Crisis Intervention Team. Dispatchers can send CIT officers trained in crisis techniques to people in a mental health crisis, and the team works with mental health professionals and trains other officers. The Training Division instructs new and veteran officers, offers courses to other agencies and is working toward approval as a TCOLE training provider. Under the city's alarm ordinance, a fee applies after the fifth alarm call in a calendar year. Crash reports come from TxDOT, and the City Secretary's Office fields open records requests, which Texas Government Code chapter 552 governs.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau (ACS 2023), Sugar Land city, TX has an estimated population of 109,735.
