Online Camera Registration

Residents and businesses can now register the locations of their outdoor video surveillance systems with the Springfield Police Department. When an incident occurs, police will be able to identify the locations of nearby video cameras and enlist the assistance of the community to help officers collect video evidence and follow up on leads. The police will not have access to your cameras or security system. If footage is needed, a secure link will be provided to the resident by a third party vendor working with the department.

E-commerce Exchange Zone

If you use online sites to buy or sell items and the transaction requires you to meet face-to-face with a stranger, the Springfield Police Department would like to remind residents to meet in a safe and public location. The City of Springfield offers an E-Commerce Exchange Zone in the lobby of the Police Department located at 800 E. Monroe. Transactions are encouraged during regular business hours but the lobby is open from 8:00 a.m.-10:00 p.m. The inside lobby is monitored by surveillance cameras. No weapons, guns or knives may be exchanged.
