Police Records Requests

The Trotwood Police Department’s Records Division is staffed by four Records Clerks, 1 Full-time and 3 Part-Time.  In an effort to help ensure accountability and transparency in the conduct of public business, the Records Clerks are trained in current applicable laws and regulations regarding records management and they process police incident and collision report requests for information in compliance with current Ohio Sunshine Laws.

Some police reports may be exempt from disclosure by law and may have information redacted (blacked out) prior to public release.

Requests for police reports may take up to ten (10) days to process depending on the complexity of the request and the availability of the record(s) requested.  The public can call the Records Division at (937) 854-7200 to confirm report availability.
