A Historical Perspective of the St. Anne Police Department

In September of 1994 the St. Anne Police Department moved from the Village Hall to the front of the Civic Center. Rudy Abrassart and Steve Abrassart did most of the remodeling work and created two offices, a walk in evidence locker, and a conference room. This was a vast improvement over the one small room that served as an office and a small closet that was the evidence room. This had been home to the police department since the St. Anne Village Hall was built in 1950.

Over the years the following policemen have served the Village of St Anne.
