A Message from Ventura Police Chief Ken Corney
Our department prides itself on being a partner in the community and I am honored to serve as your Chief.
I firmly believe the greatness of this department is based on the foundation of our people and all of the dedicated 161 men and women who serve this department and the commitment each brings to work on a daily basis to make Ventura even better.
I became Police Chief in December of 2009 and from my first day I implemented a very simple management philosophy by which we adhere to:
- Develop and retain a winning team
- Communicate and execute a shared mission with clear goals and objectives
- Relentlessly pursue success
I know that when we work together, not only as a department but as a community, we truly do make a difference.
