Welcome from Chief of Police

Coin

To Our West Linn Community,

It continues to be an honor and privilege to serve as your Police Chief. Even after 30 years of police work experience, I still have an unwavering commitment to getting better every day. I place great value in building strong relationships with community members, business owners and regional partners to better serve our city.

I am proud to have been able to lead this organization through some of the most challenging times in our history. We have built an amazing team with people from many different backgrounds and different life stories. I believe it is our diversity of perspectives that sets us apart from other departments.

The men and women of the West Linn Police Department share my commitment to serving you with professionalism and compassion. We look forward to meeting and exceeding your expectations in every encounter we have with our community.

I would love to get to meet as many of our community members as possible during my tenure as your police chief. Please consider scheduling cup of coffee and a conversation  with me by contacting my Administrative Assistant Toni Swanberg either by phone - 03-742-6101 or email - tswanberg@westlinnoregon.gov.  

We look forward  to meeting you and earning your trust through transparent policies and unbiased practices.

With Much Aloha,

Peter E. Mahuna
Chief of Police
