FILING A COMPLAINT IN-PERSON AT APD FRONT DESK

A personnel complaint against any employee of the Aurora Police Department may be taken by any police department supervisor. 

If you would like to file a complaint against an employee of the Aurora Police Department, go to the front desk of the Aurora Police Department Headquarters. Ask the officer to speak with a supervisor about a personnel complaint. 

The supervisor will listen to your complaint to see what, if any, laws, policies or procedures may have been violated. Upon making such a determination, the supervisor will complete a performance complaint.

If a supervisor is not available, you may take a complaint form with you, fill it out with as much detail as possible, and return it to the Aurora Police Department’s Office of Professional Standards. You will be contacted when the complaint is received.
