Police Commissions were authorized by the Montana legislature to assist Mayors with the operation of police departments. A Police Commission is very limited in its powers and duties. It is not authorized to run a police department or even to suggest what policies should be followed by the department. Neither is the Police Commission a branch of the police department nor is it subject in any way to the control of the police department.

The Police Commission is limited by state law to very specific duties outlined under Montana Statutes. Refer to Title 7, Chapter 32 for the specific guidelines.
