The Pittsburg Police Department Records Division is managed by the Police Services Administrator and is staffed with a Police Records Supervisor and Police Records Clerks.  The Records Division also participates in the Police Department’s Student Intern program and is occasionally assigned a rotating Student Intern.

The Records Division is responsible for all police records management and document control with the Department.  Access to all records information is governed by local, state, and federal laws.  The Division processes all warrants, traffic citations, subpoenas, restraining orders, requests for information including California Public Records Act requests, record seals, purging and document management, background checks, clearance letters, detention only certificates, data entry into local, state, and federal systems, and reporting of Uniform Crime Reporting statistics to the Department of Justice.

Our Records Division staff is often the first point of contact that the community has with the Pittsburg Police Department as our Records staff also answer the main telephone line, work our Police Department public front counter, and provide Live Scan fingerprint services. 

The Police Department front counter is open to assist the public Monday through Friday from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm.  The Police Department front counter is closed in observance of City of Pittsburg holidays.
