Commander’s Message
Welcome to the California Highway Patrol (CHP) Solano Area
webpage. The Solano Area provides public
safety and law enforcement services throughout the Solano County region. Our officers patrol all freeways, state routes,
county roads, and state property within the county. The Solano Area works closely with local and
county law enforcement agencies to serve our community members.
As the commander of the Solano Area, I am proud to serve
alongside the talented and devoted members of this command. When fully staffed, the CHP Solano Area is
made up of 81 sworn uniformed personnel and seven professional staff. The Area also has a vibrant Senior Volunteer
Program and Explorer Program. Each
member of the command is committed to serving the public within their
respective role. Whether it’s responding
to a crash, investigating a crime, assisting a disabled motorist, or providing
in-view patrol on the roadways of our county, the uniformed members of the CHP
Solano Area are committed to providing the highest level of Safety, Service,
and Security to our community members.
Our professional staff also play a huge role in public safety by
providing the administrative and technical support for our patrol and law
enforcement mission.
As a lifetime resident of Solano County, I have a
personal/vested interest in ensuring CHP operations are running efficiently
within the county. I have worked for the
California Highway Patrol for over 22 years, having served previous assignments
in Solano, Marin, Sonoma, San Francisco, and Alameda Counties. I consider myself extremely fortunate to be a
member of the CHP. I am thankful of all
past and present members of this Department whose dedication, courage, and
integrity have upheld the trust and confidence placed upon them by the citizens
of California.
I value the diverse and unique contributions made by
employees, residents, and business owners towards a common goal of making Solano
County a safe place to live, work, and visit.
