Assault Defense for Women

The Layton Police Department teaches an Assault Defense for Women class several times each year. The free class is for women and girls only, and attendees must be 16 years of age or older due to some of the content discussed in the class. Those attending will learn the dynamics of various types of assaults in a classroom setting, and then practice some basic strikes and physical techniques to defend themselves. The class is capped at 20 participants each session, and dates are announced periodically on the Layton City Police Department Facebook page.

Contact Lt. Travis Lyman at (801) 336-3443 for more details.


Child Identification Kits

The Child ID Kits contain personal information as well as a current image and fingerprints for your child. A digital image is taken and fingerprints are scanned into a computer to produce the final product. The images and the fingerprints taken are NOT kept on file at the Police Department. Once the information is printed the record is erased. The printout of your child’s information should be kept in a safe place and updated yearly. To find out when the next child identification event will be held, contact the Layton Police Department at (801) 336-3443.


Internet Safety Presentations

These presentations are age-appropriate and are tailored to the attention span and interest of the audience. Young children (Grades K-2) are introduced to the presence of online dangers and the importance of using the Internet with a trusted adult. Older children (Grades 3-6) learn what to watch out for online and how to avoid these dangers. Teens (Middle and High School) are shown the consequences of risky Internet behavior. Adults are taught basic Internet concepts and shown how easy it is for someone to find personal information about their children. They will also receive resources for communicating with children and teenagers about Internet concerns in a positive manner. To schedule an Internet Safety Presentation please call (801) 336-3462.

Alarm Permits

Businesses and residences having an alarm system are required to obtain a permit from the Police Department. Applications for the permit can be obtained from the company installing your alarm.

The application must be filled out completely and must bear signatures from the property owner, installer of the alarm, and authorized representative of the alarm company. The application must also list three responsible parties who will be available and willing to respond to the premise in case of an alarm. When the application is complete, your alarm company should send the application to the Police Department.

There are no fees associated with the alarm permit however, if more than two false alarms occur at the same premises within a three month period, the property owner will be assessed a fee. Additionally, on business premise alarms, if no responsible party responds, the owner of the business will be assessed a fee. For further information regarding fees and alarms see Chapter 5.28 of the Layton City Municipal Code.
