City of Charlack Police Department
History:
The City of Charlack started out a village which was named for the crossing streets of St. Charles
Rock Road and Lackland. Prior to the incorporation in 1945, the Village had alternating patrols
provided by three different Police agencies, St. Louis County, St. Ann and Overland. In 1945, the
Village was patrolled by Charlack's first own Sheriff accompanied by 2 deputies. The Police Station
for these three officers was located in a 10 foot by 4 foot building located behind a gas station at the
intersection of St. Charles Rock Road and Lackland. In the late 1950's, the Village purchased a new
City Hall and Police Department from Mr. Bob Pingle, who was using the front of the building as a
grocery store and the rear of the building for his family home.
Current:
Our current Police Department employees eight full time officers, which include the Chief, two
Sergeants and 6 patrolmen. The Police Department also has 5 certified reserve officers.
All of the officers have received their training from the St. Louis County and Municipal Training
Academy or from the Eastern Missouri Law Enforcement Training Academy. Each officer continues
to receive ongoing training from both of these Academies. Our Police Department also belongs to
several Law Enforcement organizations including the Missouri Police Chiefs Association, the
International Police Chiefs Association and the North County Municipal Police Chiefs Association
and the Major Case Squad.
The main goal of the Charlack Police Department is to continue to provide for its residents, a safe
environment to live, work and play.
