Tioga County Sheriff

In conjunction with the Governor's Traffic Safety Council, the Tioga County Sheriff's Office is now accepting reservations for Child Passenger Seat Inspections. A trained Deputy Sheriff will inspect and provide one-on-one instruction for properly installing a Child Safety Seat. Seats which are deemed unsafe or which appear on a factory recall list will be replaced, free of charge at the time of the inspection. The number of seats are limited, so anyone interested in participating in this program should call 687-1010 and ask for Deputy Chris Lupo.

Sheriff Gary W. Howard

Welcome to the official website of the Tioga County Sheriff's Office. Since 1791, when James McMaster was appointed the first Sheriff of Tioga County, the Sheriff's Office has remained committed to providing efficient and effective public safety services to the citizens of Tioga County. In keeping with this continuing commitment, I am proud to provide this website as a source of public safety information.

I encourage you to explore our site and learn more about the day-to-day operations of your Sheriff's Office, as well as taking advantage of the informational links, such as Offender Watch. The Offender Watch program provides current information about the identity and whereabouts of registered sex offenders residing throughout Tioga County. Safety tips are also provided to share with your family, and for those who pre-register with this free service, Offender Watch will notify you by e-mail when a known sex offender moves into your neighborhood.

I hope you find the website informational and useful. I strongly encourage all citizens to be proactive in keeping our communities safe. If you have information which can help us in solving a crime or further promote public safety, then please call us. If you wish to remain anonymous, then please send us an e-mail message using our free "Tip Line". I take great pride serving as your Sheriff and will continue to do so faithfully.
