The City of Oxford is pleased to announce the addition of Officer Gary Palmer as the newest full-time member of the Oxford Police Department.

Officer Palmer brings with him a strong commitment to public service and a passion for community-focused policing. He has already hit the ground running and is looking forward to getting to know the residents of Oxford and serving the city with professionalism and integrity.

The Oxford Police Department remains committed to keeping the community safe and fostering strong relationships with residents and local businesses. Please join us in welcoming Officer Palmer to the department—and be sure to say hello if you see him out and about in town!

Heads up, Oxford! Over the next few days, the Kansas Forest Service will be in town doing something tree-rific — taking inventory of the trees in our parks and along city easements!

You might spot their crews out and about, checking on our leafy neighbors and gathering info to help us keep Oxford green and gorgeous.

Thanks for your patience and understanding as they branch out through the community! 🌲🌿
