The Police Log is available to the public, free of charge, during Kirkland Police Department business hours Monday through Friday. A small number of the calls to police on a weekly basis are excerpted in the Kirkland Courier-Reporter. These summaries are prefaced by a brief synopsis describing significant numbers or important types of calls received.
The Police Log is a record of calls received by police dispatchers that require immediate police action. These records are usually held for public review for seven days.
Not all calls are recorded in the log, and occasionally, information is blacked out. This to protect the identity of the reporting party, victim or a juvenile in certain types of crime such as rape, sexual assault or child abuse.
