The Ayer Police Department provides municipal law enforcement services for the Town of Ayer, Massachusetts, focusing on reducing crime opportunities and fear while safeguarding residents’ lives, dignity, and property. The department operates as a small-to-mid-sized agency based at 54 Park Street in Ayer, delivering traditional policing and public-safety functions to the community. Its stated aim is to work with the public to enhance overall safety in the town. In addition to local policing, the department serves as the host agency for the Ayer Shirley Regional Emergency Communications Center, with a dedicated full-time staff supporting 24-hour emergency response. A notable recent development is the launch of CodeRED, a rapid emergency notification system introduced in June 2023. The department has also implemented administrative service enhancements, such as a miscellaneous payment option introduced in 2020 to streamline overdue-bill processing.
