During the Greater Cleveland Chambers of Commerce First Responder luncheon, the Dayton Police Department was honored to present Officer Refugio Gonzalez with the Excellence in Policing and Community Engagement award. Officer Gonzalez played a key role in locating a vehicle involved in a high-profile case, helping solve it. He has also been instrumental in establishing the Dayton Police Department Officers Association, a nonprofit community policing organization.

In addition, Lieutenant Tyler Head received the Officer of the Year award from the Liberty County District Attorney's Office. Recently promoted to Patrol Lieutenant, Lt. Head has maintained his rigorous training alongside the Liberty County Sheriff’s Office Special Response Team (SRT)—where he serves as a member—while seamlessly adapting to his new supervisory duties.

Thank you, Lt. Head and Officer Gonzalez, for your professionalism, dedication, and continued commitment to making Dayton a better place to live, work, and play!

As we celebrate National Animal Shelter Week, we’re pleased to announce the grand opening of the City of Dayton’s new Animal Shelter at 2111 Waco Street.

This is an exciting day for our community and the beginning of a brighter chapter—not only for our staff, but for every animal that comes through our doors. As we open the shelter, let us remember that a community is measured by how it treats its most vulnerable members, including our four-legged residents.

A project of this scale doesn’t happen overnight. We want to extend our sincere thanks to city leadership, the Dayton City Council, and the citizens of Dayton.

Animal Control Supervisor Danyell Trousdale and Animal Control Officer Mykala Darbonne lead our dedicated Animal Control Team.
