In order to meet the policing challenges of the 21st century, Village officials authorized the construction of a new police station on part of a 29.2 acre parcel of land located on the north side of Route 30 at the intersection of Griffin Drive. Construction began in 2003 and the facility was completed in July 2005.

In 2005, the Village contracted with Northwestern University's Center for Public Safety to perform a Traffic Stop Statistical Study. The Village of Montgomery supports all efforts to eliminate discriminatory practices in government operations, including racial profiling in traffic stops.
