The Mar-Mac Police Department is an entity of the Mar-Mac Unified Law Enforcement District, which encompasses the cities of Marquette and McGregor, in northeast Clayton County, Iowa. The police department is currently funded for three full-time officers and part-time/reserve officers on an as needed basis.

The cities of Marquette and McGregor is located along the banks of the Mississippi River. The police department is the primary law enforcement agency to 1,163 (2020 census) year-round residence and thousands more during the summer months. Because of our geographical location, the police district experiences a significant growth in daily transient population and commuters. This growth is due to the neighboring city of Prairie du Chien, WI (2020 US Census
Population - 5,506), local employers, area attractions, nearby festivals, and a state and federal highway (approximately
4,500 vehicles average per day).

The police department patrols approximately 3.11 square miles, which is the largest geographical region patrolled by a police department in Clayton County, resulting in the highest calls for service amongst all police departments in the county. Also located within, or immediately bordering the police district, is the Mississippi River, Bloody Run Creek,
Pikes Peak State Park (approximately 300,000 annual visitors), Effigy Mounds National Monument, and Bloody Run
County Park/Wildlife Management Area.

We are seeking applicants who are collaborative and dedicated to serving the communities with dignity, integrity, and professionalism.

Application and employment details can be found on the department's website under "Employment Opportunities."
