The Chula Vista Police Department serves the city of Chula Vista, California. The department is divided into three divisions: The Administrative Services Division, the Patrol Operations Division, and the Investigations Division.[1] The chief of police is Roxana Kennedy.[2]

The city's police department was threatened with layoffs to help stabilize the department's budget. Although budget cuts saved Chula Vista $18 million, about 100 employees (including 15 police officers) were eliminated.[3]

The department was the first in the country to use drone technology to respond to emergencies.[4]
