How do I complain about police service?
You start by speaking with a supervisor at the Police Department. With the assistance of the supervisor, you will figure out the problem. The immediate supervisor of the officer will attempt to resolve the conflict to your satisfaction according to departmental policy. If it cannot be resolved at that level, the supervisor will provide you with a citizen complaint package. You will be requested to fill out a complaint form. If you are unable to do so, the supervisor will complete one for you and forward it to office of the Chief of Police. An investigation will be conducted and you will be notified of the outcome by the Chief of Police.
Can I make a report with the Holly Police Department if the crime or accident occurred outside the village?
No. Even though you may live here, we can only take reports of crimes or accidents that occur within the village limits. You will have to contact the jurisdiction where the incident occurred to file a police report. If it is an incident that is not serious in nature, the police department in the jurisdiction in which it occurred may have a program similar to the Holly Police Department’s in which you can file the report right over the telephone.
How much will my bond be?

Can you tell me if someone I know has been arrested?
We can tell you if they are in the police station, at the court, or if we transported them to the Oakland County Jail. In certain situations, we will release what charges they are facing, but for specific information we may refer you to the Freedom of Information Act.
I let my friend stay with me for a few days and now he/she won’t leave! Can you throw him/her out for me?
