A violation of these could result in a large fine by the F.A.A. FIREWORKS - The City of Clinton municipal code 7-602 prohibits fireworks to be deployed anywhere within city limits. The city has made a significant investment in a permitted and controlled fireworks display for your enjoyment! Come to Lakefront Park to enjoy!!

The City of Clinton noise ordinance 11-201 and 11-202 specifically states between the hours of 11:00 pm and 7:00am that residents are to be respectful and not create unnecessary noise within city limits. Thank you for your respectful attention to these safety points! Let's all work together to make this celebration of our Nation's Independence a safe, courteous, and fun event for everyone!

Officer Jessica Daugherty and Officer Santino Gutierrez got ducked today by Moco Ducks! Moco Ducks is a FB group that encourages youth to initiate positive interactions with law enforcement by ducking them and grabbing a photo. These interactions lead to better partnerships and trust between the police and the communities they serve. Thank you Moco Ducks for this opportunity to serve! #ServiceBeforeSelf

Your friends and family need you alive more than they need a reply. 💬💔 #HandsFreeTN

We are proud to partner with Clinton City schools, Anderson County schools, and the Anderson County Sheriff's Office to be a part of the L.E.A.D. (Law Enforcement Against Drugs) program! L.E.A.D. is an educational program taught in schools that utilizes evidence based anti-drug and violence curriculum. It develops a framework of social and emotional skills that promote positive, pro social attitudes and behavior. The program fosters resistance to substance abuse and conflicts by providing real life scenarios to resist peer pressure and negative influences. Officer Kristopher Miville is the L.E.A.D. officer for Clinton City Schools. He brings genuine care, integrity, and a strong belief in our youth. His efforts are instrumental in building trust and promoting a safe, healthy future for our community. Officer Miville is pictured with his most recent graduates from the program. Lieutenant Scott Gregory attended the L.E.A.D. camp with CPD's crime scene response vehicle. He demonstrated several crime scene processing techniques for students. Sergeant Matthew Howell also attended L.E.A.D. camp with his K9 partner "Tonto". He demonstrated Tonto's abilities to students and even let them get a hug from Tonto afterwards. Partnerships such as this is what makes our community strong, safe, and the best place to live and work in East TN! #ServiceBeforeSelf
