Ride-Along Program

This program allows civilian community members to ride with police personnel and observe 911 operations. It provides the opportunity for expanding understanding between the community and their police department. 

To request a ride-along please complete and return this waiver to the police department or return by email to Captain Christopher Jones at cjones@marshalltown-ia.gov.  

Extra-Duty Employment Services

Police Officers may be hired for contracted services such as traffic control and pedestrian safety, crowd control, security and protection or life and property, routine law enforcement for public authorities, and plainclothes assignments. Services are charged at $45 per hour, with a minimum of two hours.

Please call 641-754-5729 to request these services.

Emergency Snow Route

During the winter season the city will declare a winter storm emergency if there is a forecast of two or more inches of snow. 

During this time, an on-street parking ban will be put into effect on designated snow routes and all vehicles must be removed from the street at that time. The parking ban will be posted through local media, the City of Marshalltown website and Facebook page. Review the emergency snow route map (PDF). 

Keeping our roads clear is a citywide partnership to ensure safe travel for our community.
