1. Who would I contact to get suggestions on security, or to get an inspection for my home, business, or church?

You may contact the Midland Police Department Community Relations Officer (Dan Keeler) at 989-839-4648 or via email.

2. How can I get a residential property inspection when I’m on vacation?

You may fill out a residential property sheet and submit it to the Midland Police Department. The police department will attempt to conduct cursory property checks sporadically during the time period that you are gone. It is still recommended that you have a relative, friend or neighbor periodically check on the property as well.

3. How do I obtain a Personal Protection Order (PPO)?

PPOs may be obtained by contacting the 42nd Circuit Court Clerk; this office is located on the 2nd floor of the Midland County Courthouse. There you may fill out a request for a PPO. If the PPO is granted, a Circuit Court judge will sign the PPO. It is the petitioner’s responsibility to see that the PPO is served on the person it is against. You may serve it yourself or have a third party serve it for you. The Midland County Sheriff’s Office offers assistance for a fee. Contact them for conditions and fees for that service at 989-836-4600.

4. Can the police department assist me in retrieving property from my former dwelling?

5. How do I set up a neighborhood watch?

You may contact the Midland Police Department Community Relations Officer Dan Keeler at 989-839-4648 or email.
