Closter Police Department

Reported as: Closter PDMunicipal police

Jurisdiction context

Not a civil service jurisdiction

This department is not among the NJCSC Appendix A jurisdictions, so major discipline here follows a different statutory track (generally N.J.S.A. 40A:14 for municipal police), with appeals that usually go to the Superior Court rather than the Civil Service Commission.

See the context on non-civil-service departments.

Reflects the NJCSC Appendix A roster as of 2026-07-04. Context only, not legal advice.

In brief

Closter Police Department is a municipal police agency in Bergen County. It named 7 officers in internal affairs cases in 2025 and logged 7 investigations, a rate of 100 per 100 officers, under the Bergen County median of 125.3 and the 125.9 municipal median statewide. A rate below the median can mean less misconduct or a department that records fewer of the complaints brought to it. Of the 7 investigations detailed for 2025, 1 reported sustained complaints. Differential Treatment was the leading allegation category, ahead of Demeanor and Other Departmental Rule Violation.

No major discipline records appear in the 2020-2025 releases, and the absence of records is not a finding. Closter received an A on the report card, at the 18th percentile among 171 peers in the 15-29 officers group, a medium-confidence grade.

Military surplus equipment (1033 program)

In brief

Written by this site from the figures below.

Closter Police Department received four recorded line items of federal surplus equipment in 2017 and 2018, with a recorded value of $212,295 in original Department of Defense acquisition cost rather than current or market value. All four are in categories this site classes as tactical. Trucks and truck tractors, wheeled accounts for $198,480 across two line items, with Night vision equipment, emitted and reflected radiation at $8,730 and Optical sighting and ranging equipment at $5,085. These are transfers received, not a current inventory, because non-controlled items may be disposed of after one year. Receiving surplus equipment through the federal program is not misconduct, and this data is separate in origin from the Attorney General discipline records. This site's Militarization Index, an analysis and not an official measure, puts Closter PD at $9,650 per officer, in the 96th percentile among 167 agencies in the 15-29 officers band; a higher index is not automatically worse.

AnalysisMilitarization Index: computed by this site, not an official statistic.

Closter Police Department received $9,650 of tactical 1033 equipment value per sworn officer (original cost, divided by its latest FBI-reported staffing): the 96th percentile among municipal police agencies of similar size (15-29 officers, n=167).

Investigations per 100 officers named in that year's IA investigations (the Attorney General's own "Number of Officers" field, a distinct-officer count drawn from the IA case data itself, not a department headcount). A higher number is ambiguous on its own: it can reflect more misconduct, or a stronger internal reporting culture. Medians are computed within the same agency type only.

AnalysisA second, independent rate using FBI-reported staffing instead.

7 investigations reported for 2025[1] ÷ 22 sworn officers the department reported to the FBI for 2025[23] = 31.8 per 100 FBI-reported sworn officers. This is a genuinely different denominator from the rate above, not a correction of it; the two should not be added or averaged together. See the methodology for why these two officer counts diverge.

What this grade can and can't tell you

  • The underlying data is self-reported by agencies, one yearly snapshot at a time.
  • Allegations are not findings; many complaints end unfounded, exonerated, or not sustained.
  • There is no arrest or call-volume denominator in this data, so nothing here is a per-capita misconduct rate. A genuinely independent staffing-based rate, sourced from the FBI rather than this grade's own data, appears above when available. It is a different measurement, not a more accurate version of the grade.
  • A higher internal affairs volume is ambiguous: it can indicate more misconduct, or a more robust oversight and reporting culture. The grade weighs it anyway, because volume is what the record offers; that choice is published, not hidden.
  • The grade is one lens. The records it reads are on this page above.

Fatal encounters recorded involving this agency

From the independent Fatal Encounters dataset, 2000-2021

In brief (written by this site from the records below)

A single record in the Fatal Encounters dataset names Closter Police Department, dated 2018. The dataset gives the force label, as recorded, as Vehicle. Fatal Encounters is an independent, crowdsourced journalism project that documented deaths occurring during police encounters of any kind, including vehicle pursuits, deaths in police presence, and medical emergencies. A record is not a finding of fault against the agency or any officer, and it is not connected to the Attorney General discipline records elsewhere on this page. The project stopped collecting in December 2021, so the dataset is frozen and nothing after that date appears here.

Fatal Encounters is an independent, crowdsourced dataset that documented deaths during police encounters nationwide from 2000 until its collection ended in December 2021.[4] It records all deaths that occurred during a police encounter of any kind: vehicle pursuits, suicides in police presence, and medical emergencies are included alongside uses of force. A record appears here because Closter Police Departmentis named in the record's as-reported agency field. A listing is not a misconduct finding, and it is not connected to the Attorney General discipline records above. See the methodology. Each record links to its own page with the full as-reported details.

Public records requests

Records requests about this department filed through OPRAmachine, an independent site that files Open Public Records Act requests in public and publishes the responses.[5] This is a third-party, user-generated source, separate in origin from the Attorney General records elsewhere on this page.

Current as of 12 July 2026. These figures are a point-in-time snapshot and do not update: requests filed to OPRAmachine after that date do not appear here. For live activity, see this body on OPRAmachine.

This department has no separate listing on OPRAmachine. Records requests for it are handled through Closter Borough, the municipal records custodian, which also fields requests about permits, property, and code enforcement. Only the 14 requests whose subject line indicates it concerns the police department are counted below. The other 45 filed to Closter Borough are about something else and are not shown.

What this section can and can't tell you

  • A request is not a finding. Every entry records what a member of the public asked for. None of it establishes that an agency did anything, and none of it is an allegation this site is making.
  • Statuses come from the requester, not the agency. On OPRAmachine the person who filed the request classifies the response they got, so “successful” means they said they got what they asked for. It is not the agency's word and not an adjudication.
  • Request volume is not a measure of misconduct. A long list usually reflects public interest, local journalism, or one determined requester. A short list usually means few people have asked.
  • This covers OPRAmachine only. Most OPRA requests in New Jersey are filed directly with agencies and never appear here, so this is a floor, not a total.
  • It is frozen at 12 July 2026. The figures come from a snapshot of OPRAmachine taken on that date and nothing refreshes them, so anything filed since is missing. Treat every number here as a lower bound that is only getting further out of date.
  • The count is an undercount, by design. Requests to Closter Borough are sorted by subject line, because that custodian also handles permits, property, and code enforcement. A request that is genuinely about the police but carries a vague subject line, and many do read only “OPRA Request,” is not counted here. The sorting is this site's own reading of the request titles, not a fact from the source, and it is deliberately cautious: it would rather miss a police request than show you somebody's building permit.

The match between this OPRAmachine body and this department is this site's inference, not a certified mapping. If it is wrong, we will remove it: corrections.

Questions and answers

What is a summary of Closter Police Department's internal affairs and discipline record?

Closter Police Department is a municipal police agency in Bergen County. It named 7 officers in internal affairs cases in 2025 and logged 7 investigations, a rate of 100 per 100 officers, under the Bergen County median of 125.3 and the 125.9 municipal median statewide. A rate below the median can mean less misconduct or a department that records fewer of the complaints brought to it. Of the 7 investigations detailed for 2025, 1 reported sustained complaints. Differential Treatment was the leading allegation category, ahead of Demeanor and Other Departmental Rule Violation. No major discipline records appear in the 2020-2025 releases, and the absence of records is not a finding. Closter received an A on the report card, at the 18th percentile among 171 peers in the 15-29 officers group, a medium-confidence grade.

How many internal affairs investigations did Closter Police Department report in 2025?

How many deaths during police encounters are recorded for Closter Police Department?

The independent Fatal Encounters dataset contains 1 record naming Closter Police Department, from 2018 through 2018. Fatal Encounters is a crowdsourced journalism project, not a government source, and it documented deaths that occurred during police encounters of any kind.

The median pensionable salary for the 21 active Closter Police Department officers in the NJ Treasury pension file is $169,288. The median for the 128 TPAF-enrolled staff at CLOSTER BOARD OF EDUCATION is $96,363, a ratio of 1.76x. Against the Bergen County school-staff median the ratio is 1.85x. These are pensionable base salaries: they exclude overtime, stipends, longevity and leave payouts for both groups, and a school contract year and a police work year are different lengths. TPAF covers certificated school staff, not only classroom teachers.
