“ABOUT US” – The Spring Lake Heights Police Department
The Borough of Spring Lake Heights and the Police Department were created in May of 1927 by an act of the NJ Legislature wherein the citizens of two historic village sections of Wall Township, known as Lake Como (north of Warren Avenue) and Villa Park (south of Warren Avenue) passed a Public Referendum to secede from Wall Township.
The Spring Lake Heights Police Department is a community oriented policing agency that is currently staffed by 15 full time sworn officers. The Police Department is led by Chief Edward Gunnell, a lifelong resident of Spring Lake Heights. Our rank structure consists of a Police Captain, Lieutenant, 3 Patrol Sergeants, 1 Detective Sergeant, and 8 Patrol Officers.
The Police Department is divided into three Branches, The Administrative Branch, The Operations Division and The Criminal Investigations Bureau. The Spring Lake Heights Police Department is stationed in the Spring Lake Heights Municipal Building located at 555 Brighton Avenue, Spring Lake Heights, NJ 07762.
