borough Hall and Police Department Improvement Plan

After receiving valuable community feedback on the initial facility proposal—including concerns about cost and the potential relocation off Speedwell Avenue—we went back to the drawing board.

The department leadership, together with a Borough Council Committee, has worked to scale the project down to its most essential elements so we can meet mandatory standards.


To ensure the community remains fully informed about our path forward, we are sharing the PowerPoint presentation from the Council meeting on 5/7/2026, that outlines the updated direction. This presentation details how the revised plan strengthens safety for our officers, victims, witnesses, and detainees while addressing the concerns raised during the first proposal.


We encourage you to review the presentation and join us to see how we’ve reduced costs while keeping the safety of our town—and everyone who relies on our police services—at the forefront.  You can find detailed plans for the improvements below!

Safe Online Reporting

Frontline Public Safety Solutions is a way to report non emergent events to the Morris Plains Police

Need to report a non-emergent event to our agency?

The purpose of this site is to allow Morris Plains citizens, customers or any victim of a crime that occurred within the township limits, to file police reports online. After completing all required information you will be able to print a copy of the information that you submitted. If the incident you wish to report is an emergency, a crime in progress, or involves any type of injury please do not submit the report online and dial 9-1-1. Domestic violence incidents do not qualify under the on line reporting criteria and must have an officer respond.

Morris County Seeks Public Input on Updated Hazard Mitigation Plan

Morris County and its communities have updated the 2020 Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan, ensuring that Morris County municipalities remain eligible to receive certain types of federal mitigation funding to reduce hazard risk. The plan identifies natural hazards and vulnerabilities, assesses risk, and identifies mitigation initiatives to reduce or eliminate future losses resulting from those hazards. This survey provides an opportunity for you to share your opinions and participate in the mitigation planning process. A significant component of the mitigation planning process is to ensure a final review opportunity for members of the public. 


The plan document can be accessed here:
