As part of the Burlington Police Department's concern for the citizens of Burlington, we present the procedures you should follow in order to register a complaint against the Burlington Police Department or an employee of the agency. You can remain anonymous by submitting complaints through our feedback forms. View the Registering a Complaint Handout. You can also review some of the results of investigations.

How to Register a Complaint:

  • Contact the department either in person or by phone. Ask to speak with the on-duty supervisor.
