Boulder County Sheriff's Office
The Boulder County Sheriff's Office and the Town of Lyons entered into a contractual law enforcement agreement in 1989. The contract details the basic services to be provided by the Sheriff's Office including the provision of a Sheriff's substation in Town. Sergeant Cody Sears acts as the Town's law enforcement administrator, and there is also full-time deputies and investigative and animal control services. These resources are supplemented by additional deputies who work out of the Lyons substation, and who provide coverage to the unincorporated area surrounding Lyons.
