The Mesquite Police Department is on a continual quest for qualified applicants who desire to do something special with their lives.   A Mesquite Police Officer is a professional police officer.  Our officers were selected because:

they believe in being honest with themselves, their family, their friends, and all others;

they believe they are accountable for their actions and they readily accept responsibility for them;

they believe a challenge is an opportunity and they are excited about the possibilities before them;

they believe policing is a noble cause and it can be accomplished in an exemplary manner; and,

they believe our community deserves their best efforts every day and they are committed to providing it.

These are the qualities of our personnel, whether civilian or sworn.  Are they your qualities?  Will you be the next Mesquite Police Officer?
