History
On May 4th, 1891, the City Council, by the approval of Ordinance Number: 2, established the Norway Police Department for the purpose of preserving the Peace and Good Order of the City of Norway. In the early years, police officers were responsible for seeing that domestic animals were kept off the sidewalks and residential property; and that roaming horses or foraging cows did not enter upon the streets and roadways, or consume the neighborhood gardens.

Today, the Norway Police Department continues its 24-7 service to its citizens and business population within the approximate nine (9) square miles of the City of Norway; and offers a full range of law enforcement services that include: patrol; accident investigation; criminal and juvenile investigations; community relations and crime prevention. The Officers have also been given specialized assignments to include: Crime Scene Investigations, Firearm instruction, tactical assignment of the Dickinson County’s Critical Incident Response Team (CIRT), member of the Dickinson County Domestic Violence Executive Board, participant member of the joint law enforcement drug team of Kingsford, Iron Mountain, Norway, and Dickinson County (KIND) assistance team.

Officers of the Norway Police Department also conduct initial screening for permits for weapon purchase and follow-up weapon safety inspections, as well as offers a "Citizen Ride-along Program." The Norway Police Department will conduct security surveys for business and residents, and provide handout materials to address the concerns of Burglary and Robbery prevention.
