What is the department motto?

• A. Integrity, Accountability, Service
• B. Courtesy, Loyalty, and Service
• C. Courtesy and Honor
• D. Service, Respect, and Honor

Answer: (B)

The motto communicates the values guiding how department members interact with the public and carry out their duties: treat people with courtesy, show loyalty to the department and community, and commit to serving others.

That triad is the best fit because it covers both interpersonal conduct (courtesy), internal commitment (loyalty), and public purpose (service). The other options drop or replace one of these essential elements—for example, focusing on integrity or accountability without the public-facing tone, or substituting honor or respect for loyalty—so they don’t capture the same balanced message of how staff should behave and why they serve.
