Service award recipients included police department employees (police officers and non-sworn staff) as well as residents who have helped to advance the ideals of law enforcement and public safety in extraordinary ways.

This year, specific awards included three Community Service Medals; five Distinguished Service Medals; 14 Certificates of Merit; Civilian Employee of the Year; Officer of the Year; and one Police Medal.
