The Plainwell Department of Public Safety is on the job 24 hours a day, seven days a week to provide prompt police and fire emergency response and to maintain a safe and secure community. This is accomplished through actively patrolling streets, responding to calls for assistance and direct interaction with schools on a daily basis, with other organizations and with individual citizens when requested. More than 3,000 calls are received each year through Allegan Central Dispatch.
The public safety concept was implemented in 1992 with police and fire departments combining. This has proven beneficial for the City in providing professional services to the community and decreasing property owners insurance rates.
All department members are cross-trained as police officers, firefighters and medical first responders.
The Department of Public Safety consists of 9 full-time public safety officers, 2 part-time public safety officers, 10 paid on-call police/fire reserve officers and 3 support services personnel.
