Due to numerous complaints of speeding on North Love Chapel Road, the Stanfield Police Department will be conducting heavy speed enforcement. The posted speed limit is 25 MPH. Please slow down, this stretch of road has a lot of pedestrian and bicycle traffic. Thank you.
Thank you to Riley Smith for organizing such a wonderful program here in Stanly County called "Baskets for Badges." Riley who is the daughter of the late Locust Police Chief Steven "Smitty" Smith, collected donations to provide officers in Stanly County with some awesome gifts! Today she dropped off gifts at our department for us! Thanks Riley! We know your Dad is looking down from Heaven and smiling at you!
