Citizen Comments: None Minutes for Correction/Approval: January 2, 2025 The minutes were approved as presented. New Business: 1. PS 2025-05 Monthly Report Review for January 2025 Chief Jensen presented this report. He said the department is fully staffed at this time. He reported the overtime hours, the community police initiatives--particularly in the downtown area and Sgt. Stroup was installed as Sergeant-in Arms in the Kendall Chiefs Association. The Chief also reported the training hours, number of crashes, the mobile speed sign was placed in the downtown area for a 2-week study and the directed patrol efforts. In addition, he said the number of citations were up, warnings were down and many background checks were done. A second School Resource Officer may be requested, so the school activities are being tracked. At the present time, the only Resource Officer travels to all the schools. The Chief discussed the Nybers reports and also said there were fewer motorist assists and lockouts. Alderman Soling asked if a liability waiver is signed for lockouts. A waiver is signed and Chief Jensen noted that many departments no longer do lockouts, however, he feels it is a public service. 2. PS 2025-06 Adjudication Reports for January and February 2025 In January, there were solicitors who had no permits and they are warned first, then citations are issued. A few cases for vape pens and cannabis were also noted. The Chief had questions on the parking violations and “no registration” citations and will clarify. Page 2 of 3 3. PS 2025-07 2024 Annual Report Review Chief Jensen said the 2024 goal was to challenge the staff to make a certain number of daily stops. That goal was divided into 9 smaller goals for expectations and standards. The department also challenged officers to identify and solve problems. He noted a 155% increase in traffic stops for cell phone use/distracted driving and he detailed the overall number of calls for service for the year. The Chief said the CSO program has proved to be valuable and he likes to hire the CSO's as full-time officers. The Chief reported the number of FOIA requests and also the crimes handled by the School Resource Officer. DUI's and crashes were up, but the overall crime rate was down. He noted that in 2024, the department was using the Nybers reporting system exclusively. The Chief also discussed that de-escalation and transparency are very important strategies The Police Department also partners with the health department on mental health incidents and they provide a social worker 1 day a week who follows up with persons in need of their services. Chief Jensen said in the future he may ask for funding for increased hours of a social worker. The department has two drones which are used every shift. There are 6 trained drone pilots and they also assist other agencies with this program. The department also has a therapy dog for use at special events and other needs. 4. PS 2025-08 U.S. Department of Justice COPS Grant - Discussion Chief Jensen said he did not request extra staffing in this budget year, however, in the 5-year plan, additional staff will be needed. The Mayor has given permission to start writing a grant through the U.S. Department of Justice, for two additional employees. If the grant is received, it would provide $250,000 total for 2 persons. The Chief said he is challenging two other staff members to learn the grant writing process. Alderman Soling noted that Waubonsee College offers grant-writing classes. 5. PS 2025-09 Regulation of Time-Restricted Parking - Grande Trail by Grande Reserve Elementary Phone calls were received from parents regarding parking problems during drop-off and pick-up times at the school. A drone was sent up and identified some of the major issues. In particular, the issue is students walking between cars and in front of vehicles. Chief Jensen showed the committee photos of the problem areas. Nearer to the school, cars are parked on both sides of the street. The school proposes to allow parking only on one side of the street, however, residents who live there object. His recommendation is no parking on the opposite side of the street from the school, from Freedom Place all the way around to Matlock Dr. when school is in session, for 1.5 hours both in the morning and afternoon. Chairman Transier suggested putting the restriction on Grande Trail from Matlock around the curve. The Chief also suggested a crossing guard at Constitution and Grande Trail. Chief Jensen asked to bring this matter to the entire City Council. If they approve of the proposal, letters would be sent to nearby residents, seeking their input. The school has asked police to be there each day and Officers have asked parents to move, but the parents sometimes refuse. Page 3 of 3 Old Business: 1. PS 2025-01 Route 47 Downtown Traffic Activity Update - Discussion Sgt. Stroup had provided an update of the downtown traffic efforts which showed the numbers for monthly details, stops, citations and warnings. This update will also be presented to the police staff and enforcement efforts will continue. They will also evaluate if violators have gotten multiple warnings, etc. The Chief also feels that people in the downtown see and hear the trucks. He said that Officer Kyle Davis has expressed a desire to do a truck enforcement program. Chief Jensen said certified scales would be needed, preferably on both ends of town. He suggested that when tickets are written, the fines be placed into a truck enforcement fund to buy equipment for these efforts. He will look into the legalities of a separate fund. He said there will be much future construction and several data centers with the possibility of speeding and overweight trucks. Complaints have also been received about trucks on Corneils Rd. Additional Business: None There was no further business and the meeting was adjourned at 6:56pm.

PS 2025-09 Regulations of Time-Restricted Parking – Grande Trail by Grande Reserve Elementary The purpose of this meeting was to discuss proposed parking restrictions on the streets by Grande Reserve School in an effort to make it safer for children at arrival and pick-up times. Isaac Mendoza of 3029 McLellan said his family frequently uses the street for parking since there are multiple drivers in the household. When they have their vehicles parked there, he said it does not block the flow of traffic as he has observed from his Ring camera system. He asked how it would help the situation to revoke parking during the specified hours. Chairman Transier said the restriction would only be a few hours during the day and parking is still allowed on the opposite side of the street from the school. The suggested restricted hours are 7:30am to 9:00am and 2:30pm to 4:00 pm on school attendance days. Chief Jensen said parents now park on both sides of the street and kids run across the street to their waiting ride which creates a dangerous situation. Mr. Mendoza noted that parents block his driveway. Chief Jensen clarified that the parking restriction would only be on Grande Trail from Matlock to McLellan. Ms. Michele Breyne, the Principal of Grande Reserve Elementary, said she sends messages to parents about the parking and asks them to not block driveways. As the population grew in that area, she began to hear complaints from the residents. Mr. Eduardo Mendiola said the bus stop across from him is perfect because there is no nearby driveway. He said the safety of the children is the most important. Mr. Von Mendiola added that he also has a big family with many cars. Chief of Police Jim Jensen will speak with City Administrator to see if any comments were received at city hall and this proposal will be forwarded to the City Council. If approved, an Page 2 of 2 ordinance will be drafted, signs posted and enforcement will begin. Violators will be asked to move their cars first and the next step after a warning, is a ticket if there is non-compliance. He said most comments come from the residents through the HOA in the area and they want the restrictions due to the danger for the kids. Chairman Transier asked Principal Breyne to inform the parents. She said she serves as a crossing guard in the mornings and takes the kids across Constitution to Grande Trail. She tries to encourage the proper places to cross. Chief Jensen asked Ms. Breyne to work with his command staff on a map that indicates where there is no parking and also the suggested crossing routes. The police will post the map on social media. Mr. Eduardo Mendiola asked if there is a group of volunteer parents to help with the crossing. There currently is not and the schools just took over the crossing duties. He said the most dangerous entrance to Grande Reserve is the busy one next to the school. Mr. Mendoza said there is a stop sign by his residence and he suggested a possible 3-way stop due to the number of cars. Chief Jensen asked him to send an email to the Chief so he can forward it to other city staff for consideration. This matter will be forwarded to City Council.

Facebook Post (2/10/25): We kicked off the weekend with a good cause! Officer Goldsmith and Officer Reyes participated in the Hoops for Hope three-point contest to raise money for pediatric cancer research. We are very proud of Ryan and Leo. If any of our Y.H.S. basketball crew see Officer Goldsmith around the school, looks like he could use some pointers for next year!!!

Just a friendly reminder during your commute, please be aware of your surroundings, so the school buses may get the children to school safely.

Looking back at YPD over the years always brings a smile—bigger squads, bulkier equipment, and wow… we sure looked young! We thought it would be fun to share some of those memories and laughs with you. Here’s a sneak peek—stay tuned for our weekly #ThrowbackThursday! Facebook Post (2/19/25): Good morning everyone, unfortunately it’s going to be another cold day. Keep in mind that it’s Wednesday, another day closer to the weekend, with Sunday being in the high 30s! Please have a wonderful day! Facebook Post (2/20/25): We have to start our first official Throwback Thursday in black-and- white. It is an honor to serve Yorkville following a long line of others who answered the call and paved the way. We have to admit, plenty of style back then.......good or bad? We will let you be the judge! Facebook Post (2/20/25): Our friends at North Aurora P.D. have shared some excellent information about how to avoid an IRS scam that is going around. We have had several citizens notify us of this scam as well. Here are some good tips to avoid becoming a victim. Facebook Post (2/21/25): This week, we were honored to welcome the Patel family, owners of Fox Hill Pantry here in Yorkville. They generously donated to YPD in support of our community programs throughout the year. The Patels specifically asked for Commander McMahon, noting that he has always made a point to stop by their business to check in on them. A heartfelt thank you to Fox Hill Pantry and the Patel family for their generosity! And a big shoutout to Commander McMahon for being our friendly neighborhood spider-man!

Thankfully it is not white fluffy snow (the kind you can sled in or build a snowman).........(insert sarcasm here ).....but the BE CAREFUL WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING kind. We hope everyone has a safe and fun filled Super Bowl weekend. Facebook Post (2/11/25): We are kind of regretting our joke last week about not having snow.....Looks like we will be getting what we wished for! NWS is projecting 4"-8" of snow area wide starting Wednesday morning. YPD is reminding everyone there is NO PARKING ON CITY STREETS after 2" of snowfall. Please help our plow trucks keep the roads clear by moving vehicles off the roadway once the snow starts falling. We would sincerely appreciate your cooperation for our first big snow event of the year. Safe travels. Enjoy the snow. Have a great day! ttttt Facebook Post (2/11/25): Good morning everyone and a Happy Tuesday. Looks like we were found again!

Facebook Post (2/19/25): A huge thank you to Officers Shepherd and Gerlach for putting on an excellent training this month! We focused on emergency medical tactics with some unique hands- on exercises. The 3.5 minutes in the ice bucket was an intense but effective way to simulate shock while applying tourniquets, really driving home the importance of staying calm and effective under stress. Check out the short video from the day! Facebook Post (2/24/25): Good morning! We’ll be out this morning conducting a Directed Patrol in the downtown area monitoring for speeding and cell phone use violations.

These concerns were established through both citizen concerns and areas of concern for the department. All citizen concerns were tracked for potential issues. In some cases to verify that the concerns needed to be further addressed, (5) five years of crash data was researched. In addition, these locations were further researched by utilizing the department’s speed signs. These speed signs were able to collect traffic data related to traffic counts, speed data, and various times of day of violations. In addition, the department also relied upon its partnership with EEI.

SRO Goldsmith had a busy month in February with five juveniles’ arrests stemming from incidents inside the school district. Primarily, these arrests stemmed from students being in possession of tobacco or illicit materials. With the change of the legal age to possess and consume tobacco products, please remind juveniles that simply possessing tobacco products could end with a criminal charge.

Facebook Post (March 5, 2025): We've been made aware of multiple fraudulent calls from scammers posing as Yorkville Police officers alleging outstanding warrants for those receiving the call. Please note: - We are NOT making these calls. - We do not ask for nor do we share sensitive information over the telephone. - Our officers will always provide a name and badge number upon request and offer a legitimate avenue to verify our identity if you have concerns. We appreciate your vigilance and apologize for any inconvenience. Facebook Post (March 10, 2025): Good morning and a Happy Monday! Hope everyone had a great weekend and adjusting nicely to the time change!!! Facebook Post (March 10, 2025): SCAM ALERT This morning, we received a report from a local church about scammers using sophisticated tactics. These individuals are sending emails and utilizing AI-generated voices to request changes to direct deposit accounts, payment details, and even asking church staff to purchase gift cards. These messages and voice recordings are designed to appear highly authentic. Protect Yourself: Verify the identity of the sender or caller through trusted and independent means. NEVER share financial information, passwords, or account details online or over the phone. pppy NEVER purchase gift cards for online or phone requests. If something seems suspicious, trust your instincts and report it to local authorities immediately. Stay vigilant and protect yourself from scams! &ĂĐĞďŽŽŬWŽƐƚ;DĂƌĐŚϭϬ͕ϮϬϮϱͿ͗ Facebook Post (March 14, 2025): Keep an eye on the weather this evening and overnight! There's a chance for strong storms! Facebook Post (March 17, 2025): Yorkville Police Department seeks Illinois Law Enforcement Accreditation The Yorkville Police Department is pleased to announce details of our on-site assessment with the Illinois Law Enforcement Accreditation Program (ILEAP). ILEAP is a program designed to make police organizations better by evaluating policy and procedures against established criteria. Coupling the alignment of policy and written directives against best practices, is the process of having criteria certified by an independent, authoritative body, the ILEAP Council. The Yorkville Police Department is seeking tier 2 accreditation by an evaluation of our agency consisting of 181 professional standards in the areas of Training, Operations, Administration, and Personnel to ensure meaningful and professional standards within our organization. The On-Site Assessment is scheduled for March 20th and 21st. During this time, trained assessors from peer agencies across the state will arrive to conduct inspections, file review, and audits of the police department. These representatives of the Illinois Chiefs of Police Association will be examining the department to ensure the Yorkville Police Department is worthy of the Illinois Law Enforcement Accreditation Program’s (ILEAP) professional status. Chief James Jensen and the accreditation team invite the public to voice their opinions, experiences, and other information with the accreditation team. On March 20th from 4pm to 5pm, citizens may call in to 630-553-8582 to speak privately with the representatives from ILEAP. The assessment team wants to hear your experiences with the Yorkville Police Department and whether you, the citizens, feel your police department should be accredited. Once the on-site visit is completed, the assessment team confers, develops an on-site report, and meets at the Illinois Chiefs of Police Association’s ILEAP Council meeting to discuss their findings. The Council votes to determine if our agency has met the professional standards that form the esteemed title of accreditation. When you call in to 630-553-8582, you will be directly connected with the on-site assessment team. In the event the assessment team is speaking with another citizen, you will be placed on a brief hold. Calls will be answered in the order they are received. The assessment team will be working in a private area. Feel confident that your opinions and issues will be heard by the assessment team and forwarded to the Chief. Facebook Post (March 19, 2025): Good morning! Looks like we have some inclement weather coming our way, but rest assured, spring is around the corner! Have a great Wednesday!

As Yorkville continues to grow, it’s refreshing to have such positive and collaborative relationships with the businesses that make our town great. Today, we had the pleasure of meeting with Kendall Partners, where Kevin and Jeff introduced us to their inspiring “Partners in Purpose” program. Through this initiative, they generously donated to our Christmas Shop with a Cop event. Thank you, Kendall Partners, for your kindness and commitment to giving back.

Okay, maybe it still feels like Monday no matter how we say it—but here’s some actual great news!

We had a blast cannonballing into the icy water, all for a great cause. Thanks to our amazing supporters, YPD raised over $3,000 for Special Olympics Illinois!

These concerns were established through both citizen concerns and areas of concern for the department. All citizen concerns were tracked for potential issues. In some cases to verify that the concerns needed to be further addressed, (5) five years of crash data was researched. In addition, these locations were further researched by utilizing the department’s speed signs. These speed signs were able to collect traffic data related to traffic counts, speed data, and various times of day of violations. In addition, the department also relied upon its partnership with EEI.

The data includes activity reported to the State of Illinois monthly through the National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) as well as all other criminal and quasi-criminal activity that is not required to be reported to the State. For comparison purposes, the statistical reporting from the same reporting period one year ago is included.

A Yorkville man has been arrested and charged in a murder-for-hire plot to kill his former wife. Mark A. Hellenthal (m/w 52 y.o.a. 2000 block Village View Dr. Yorkville, IL) was charged on April 10th, 2025, with Solicitation of Murder (Class X felony) and Solicitation of Murder for Hire (Class X felony) stemming from a Yorkville Police investigation that began on April 9th, 2025. On April 9th, 2025, The Yorkville Police Department was alerted of a murder-for-hire plot involving Hellenthal who had arranged with an individual to have his former wife killed. Hellenthal provided the individual with information about the victim, including the location of her residence and how to gain access. Once learning of the allegations, Yorkville Police launched an investigation and were able to locate the victim arranging for her safety until the situation could be resolved. On April 10th, 2025, Yorkville Police Investigations Division, with the assistance of Kendall County Cooperative Police Assistance Team (CPAT), secured authorization to record communications with Hellenthal. An undercover police officer posing as a hitman made contact with Hellenthal during which conversation, Hellenthal provided details on how to access the victim’s residence and offered the undercover officer U.S. currency and jewelry as payment for killing his former wife. After the arrangements were communicated to police, Hellenthal was located at his workplace with the assistance of the Downers Grove Police Department. Hellenthal was then taken into custody by Yorkville Police Investigators and members of Kendall County CPAT. Hellenthal was transported to the Kendall County Jail, where he remains in custody pending a detention hearing on April 11, 2025. Charges are not proof of guilt. The defendant listed in this release is presumed innocent and is entitled to a fair trial, at which it is the burden of the State to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.

Eli you have the heart of a hero (and the fluff to match!!) Erin, your kindness is just what we need to brighten the day. Here's a quick video celebrating our dynamic duo..... Facebook Post (04/17/25): It's Thursday...... Deputy Chief Ray Mikolasek has been serving both our community and this country for quite a while now. He came to YPD after his time in the Marine Corps and never looked back. Since then, he's worn just about every hat you can think of patrol officer, field training officer, school resource officer, commander of the Kendall County SRT, patrol sergeant, detective sergeant, and now Deputy Chief. Our community - and this agency - wouldn't be the same without your dedication and hard work. You deserve all the honor and credit for your years of service. You're alright Deputy Chief....not totally sure about the mustache though!! Facebook Post (04/21/25): It's Administrative Professionals Week, and we're celebrating the heart of our team! These five incredible women truly make our world go 'round - and somehow, they manage to put up with all of us in the process! We are sincerely grateful for their daily dedication, hard work, and the way they keep everything running smoothy behind the scenes. From managing every bit of paperwork to juggling the countless details that keep this agency functioning, they are truly the glue that holds it all together. This week we will be spotlighting each of them and giving them the appreciation they deserve. Thanks for kicking off the week in style, ladies! Facebook Post (04/22/25): Maggie Garcia!!!! Maggie serves in our Records Division, handling reports, citations, daily paperwork, and assisting the public at our front window. She is one of the most consistently positive and caring people we've ever had the privilege of working with - one of those people who just makes you smile! Maggie, your dedication, kindness, and genuine care for our community and everyone around here doesn't go unnoticed. We just wanted to take a moment to say THANK YOU. Our city and our agency are better because you are here! Facebook Post (04/23/25): Crystal Bieritz!! We know you don't like the spotlight, but today it's all yours! As we celebrate Administrative Professionals Week, we want to shine a well-earned light on Crystal. She serves in our Records Division - helping process everything that comes through this agency, assisting the public, and taking on daily side quests without missing a beat. What many don't see are the early mornings she spends opening the office, or the late nights dedicated to supporting our Police Commission. Crystal, we see the work you put in, and it DOES NOT go unnoticed. We are truly grateful for your dedication and consistent professionalism. "Thank you" doesn't seem like enough - but please know we are a stronger, better team because of you. Facebook Post (04/24/25): We're hitting pause on Throwback Thursday to keep the spotlight on Administrative Professionals Week. Great news today is all about you Kendall Harris!!! Kendall, since joining our team we've noticed two consistent things. You are always on task, and you always have a smile on your face. You might not realize how much of a difference those two things make, but what you bring to the table makes this agency better every single day. We're proud to have you on the team and truly VALUE everything you do for our citizens and YPD. THANK YOU for being you! Don't every change, no matter what Maggie Garcia says! Facebook Post (04/25/25): Friday is for Amy Densberger! As Administrative Professionals Week rolls on, today we honor Amy Densberger. How do we even begin to express our thanks for one of the most professional, hardworking, and kind individuals we’ve ever met? Amy serves as our training coordinator and handles all things training for our agency. And she does it with absolute excellence! Our training program has reached new heights under Amy's care. Training hours and opportunities have increased, new instructors have been added, we’ve begun hosting regional training classes right here in our building, and we’ve certified multiple in-house trainings with the Illinois Law Enforcement Training and Standards Board. Amy is the failsafe, ensuring that every one of us meets—and exceeds—the police training standards set by the state. It’s a massive responsibility, and if not done properly, it carries serious consequences. We are grateful that with Amy's oversight, we never have to worry. Amy, we’ve grown used to expecting greatness from you—and somehow, you continue to exceed even those expectations. And you still find time to feed Eli his doggie treats! THANK YOU for making sure we are always at our best. Your impact is felt every single day. Facebook Post (04/25/25): ***Scam Alert*** The Yorkville Police Department has been made aware of a person purporting to be a Sergeant with the Kendall County Sheriff’s Office and demanding payment via PayPal for missing jury duty. THIS IS A SCAM. No law enforcement agency will use PayPal or any other non-traditional forms of payment to resolve criminal matters. When in doubt hang up and contact our non-emergency number at (630)553-4340 to speak with a patrol officer. Facebook Post (04/26/25): As we wrap up Administrative Professionals Week, we’ve saved our Records Supervisor, Kirsten Balog, for last! Kirsten oversees our Records Division and manages countless essential tasks at YPD. From monthly and annual reports to purchasing documents, payroll, FOIA requests—you name it, she’s on it—all while jumping in to tackle the daily workload alongside her team. Honestly, we could keep going, but it is Saturday! Kirsten, your easygoing nature and great sense of humor make every day better. We might like to joke more often than we should, but please know we SEE your hard work and we HONOR all that you do. Your division runs smoothly because of your leadership, and that success reflects directly back to you. We are truly lucky to have you, Kirsten. Thank you for everything! Facebook Post (04/27/25): 700 Block of N Bridge St ***UPDATE*** Police are clear the scene thank you for everyone’s patience.

These concerns were established through both citizen concerns and areas of concern for the department. All citizen concerns were tracked for potential issues. In some cases to verify that the concerns needed to be further addressed, (5) five years of crash data was researched. In addition, these locations were further researched by utilizing the department’s speed signs. These speed signs were able to collect traffic data related to traffic counts, speed data, and various times of day of violations. In addition, the department also relied upon its partnership with EEI.

An investigation immediately began into that allegation and contact was made with the would-be assassin and their attorney. After obtaining a statement and evidence from that person, the suspect was identified as Mark Hellenthal (52 years old) and it was determined that Mark was attempting to hire and/or induce two other people to murder his ex-wife. With that information, the Investigation’s Unit contacted the Kendall County Cooperative Police Assistance Team and utilized an undercover agent, which had contact with Hellenthal. Hellenthal then solicited the undercover officer to murder his ex-wife. With that information, Hellenthal was taken into custody at his work in Downers Grove, Illinois. Hellenthal was charged with Solicitation of Murder and Solicitation of Murder for Hire, both class X felonies. This investigation is currently ongoing. The Investigation’s Unit also responded and is currently investigating two Criminal Sexual Assaults, two Aggravated Batteries, and multiple financial crimes that were assigned to investigations during the month of April. On 04/05/2025, SRO Goldsmith was notified by the Yorkville High School that two juvenile students had made entry to the school after hours and without authorization.

Reports show conditions are prime for a significant chance of hail. It is probably our fault.....we washed squad cars today. Please be mindful of the weather and travel safely.

Facebook Post (5/25/25): When on patrol, we never know what we might be dispatched to. In this case, our officers were tasked with saving a brood of ducklings from a storm drain. With some careful coordination (and a lot of quacking), our officers were able to safely rescue the ducklings and reunite them with their very grateful mother. It’s not every day we get to play duck wrangler, but we’re always ready to serve and protect -all creatures great and small! r Facebook Posts Facebook Post (5/1/25): It’s Throwback Thursday and we’re looking at you, Sergeant Hart! These really are “throwback” photos from over the years—but honestly, not much has changed. You’ve aged gracefully compared to the rest of us! It feels perfectly fitting that you’re graduating this weekend with your master’s degree in social work. Looking back at these moments, it’s clear you've always had passion, care, and dedication to our community. It's so important to have those relationships with the community and we couldn't be more proud of your work. THANK YOU for your continued service to Yorkville, and congratulations, a master's degree is no small feat. Just F.Y.I. When you finally start showing some grey hair, we’re reposting! Facebook Post (5/5/25): Please join us in celebrating Sgt. Robbie Hart on completing his Master of Social Work (MSW) program with Aurora University!

Facebook Post (5/8/25): It's Thursday.....Time to throw it back! Officer Jeff Johnson has proudly served our Yorkville community for an incredible 23 years. Throughout his career at YPD, he’s worn many hats: Field Training Officer, Kendall County SRT member, K-9 officer alongside his partner O’Neil, and most recently, Detective. Jeff has consistently demonstrated a commitment to excellence. He comes to work each day with high expectations and a genuine desire to see our agency continue to grow and succeed. Jeff, in two decades of service you have witnessed a lot, weathered challenges, mentored others, and helped shape YPD into what it is today. Detective Johnson, thank you for your unwavering service and dedication—to our agency and to the people of Yorkville. We’re very proud to work alongside you. And of course… we’ve always wondered what Ross Geller would look like as a police officer. Thanks to you, we have our answer!

Facebook Post (5/27/25): Any definition of a successful life must include serving others.” — George H.W. Bush As we have closed out Police Week and Memorial Day, we welcome the official start of summer with gratitude in our hearts. These past days have served as a somber reminder of those who made the selfless choice to serve and protect others. We honor their sacrifice—and as we move forward, we want to continue that spirit of service for our Yorkville community. Wishing everyone a safe, joyful week and a summer full of good times and great memories. Facebook Post (5/27/25): Thank you to everyone that came out to honor and remember our fallen service members yesterday. This moving tribute would not have been possible without the American Legion, Boy Scouts, our Parks and Recreation Department, our citizens, and of course, our veterans that turned out to honor their fallen comrades. Facebook Post (5/29/25): We're pressing pause on Throwback Thursday for the summer, so we thought this one would be a good send-off. If Pictures could talk, this one could tell some stories! In this photo we see faces of those who have retired, other who are serving with federal agencies, and still others who have received several promotions, but what makes us most proud is that each one has served our community with enthusiasm. As we approach summer, we look forward to a new generation of YPD stepping in - sharing in the summer fun and continuing to partner with our community to keep Yorkville a great place to be.

These concerns were established through both citizen concerns and areas of concern for the department. All citizen concerns were tracked for potential issues.

Background The Yorkville Police Department's Truck Enforcement Program will be dedicated to promoting roadway safety and protecting infrastructure by ensuring that commercial vehicles comply with state and federal safety regulations. This program will include comprehensive inspections of commercial vehicles, focusing on key areas such as weight compliance, proper load securement, equipment functionality, and operator licensing standards. Through targeted enforcement, the program addresses issues like overweight vehicles, unsafe equipment, and improperly trained drivers, which can lead to accidents or roadway damage. Additionally, the program plays a proactive role in educating commercial operators about safety requirements and compliance standards, fostering a culture of responsibility within the trucking industry. By maintaining strict oversight, the program not only prevents potential hazards but also contributes to preserving Yorkville's roads and highways for long-term use.
