SWORN TO SERVE MEET ALLEN’S NEW POLICE CHIEF Steve Dye was sworn in as Allen’s sixth chief of police on Feb. 1 following the retirement of former chief Brian Harvey. Chief Dye brings more than 35 years of law enforcement experience, including recent roles as the police chief and then city manager for the City of Grand Prairie. He decided to return to law enforcement to further his commitment to community policing, organizational transparency and partnerships based on mutual trust. Chief Dye is the recipient of numerous awards and recognitions in his career including two Community Policing awards from the International Association of Chiefs of Police. He looks forward to getting to know Allen residents, speaking to local civic organizations and working alongside officers to continue improving and innovating the services provided by the Allen Police Department.
