Hello, my name is Dominic Varacallo, and I am honored to serve as the Chief of Police for the Upper Southampton Township Police Department. It is both exciting and humbling to have the opportunity to work alongside the residents, businesses, and community partners of Upper Southampton.

I began my law enforcement career in 1994 with the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA) as a Transit Police Officer. In 1997, I joined the Warminster Township Police Department, where I proudly served for 25 years. During my career, I held the ranks of Corporal, Sergeant, and Lieutenant. These experiences allowed me to grow as a leader while having the privilege of supervising and working with many dedicated professionals. They also prepared me to take on the responsibility of serving and protecting the Upper Southampton community.

I hold a Master’s Degree in Public Safety from Saint Joseph’s University and am a 2008 graduate of the Northwestern University School of Police Staff and Command.

My philosophy on policing is simple: our department, residents, businesses, and community partners are all part of one team. By working together and communicating openly, we      can ensure the safety and security of Upper Southampton.

I am grateful for the trust placed in me and look forward to serving with integrity and respect. Should you ever need assistance, please do not hesitate to contact my office.
