Kittitas (pronounced 'kit-i-tass') County is located in central Washington State. It spans from the lush forested Cascade Mountains to the upper Yakima River Valley plains and the Columbia River.
It is an honor to serve as Sheriff of Kittitas County.
The Sheriff's Office is a dedicated team, approachable and responsive. We are committed to safeguarding our diverse communities and those visiting our area.
I welcome everyone to enjoy what our county has to offer but remember to respect the property and rights of others. Playing by the rules and using good common sense will ensure you have a great time.
The citizens of Kittitas County approved a 3/10th of a penny sales tax to fund seven additional deputies, courthouse security and a law clerk. Today we have better visibility, quicker response times and a safer courthouse.
Through intelligence led/problem oriented policing we have kept a lid on property and violent crimes. Thanks to the citizens and law enforcement working together, we continue to have one of the lowest crime rates in the State.
