Arrested in Lantana? All Palm Beach County bookings process through the Main Detention Center. We connect you with licensed local bondsmen.
Lantana has its own police department (LPD) serving this coastal town in central Palm Beach County. LPD also provides contracted police services to the neighboring town of Hypoluxo. All arrests transport to the Main Detention Center, about 15 minutes north. LPD operates from 901 N. 8th Street.
The town is bisected by the Florida East Coast Railway, with Dixie Highway and US-1 acting as the primary commercial corridors. The dense mix of older residential neighborhoods and commercial strips generates a high volume of traffic enforcement, property crime, and community policing calls.
Lantana maintains a working waterfront and commercial fishing presence along the Intracoastal Waterway. The marinas and waterfront restaurants generate alcohol-related enforcement and marine issues. FWC and LPD coordinate closely on incidents occurring at the public boat ramps and Lantana Nature Preserve.
Lantana Road is a major east-west artery connecting the coast to the western suburbs. The heavy commuter traffic funneling over the bridge to the barrier island (Ocean Avenue) requires constant traffic management. LPD is highly active during rush hours to prevent intersection gridlock.
The Palm Beach County Clerk at (561) 355-2996 handles case lookups. The 15th Circuit courthouse is in downtown West Palm Beach. The central location of the town makes the judicial and booking process highly efficient.
The site of the former A.G. Holley State Hospital (now redeveloped into a massive commercial and residential complex called Water Tower Commons) has dramatically changed Lantana's demographics. LPD has expanded its patrol strategies to manage the influx of new residents and retail traffic at this central location. The department's independence allows it to tailor its response to both the wealthy waterfront and the working-class inland neighborhoods.
Surety bonds (10% non-refundable premium) and cash bonds are accepted. Bonding agents must be registered with the Palm Beach County Clerk of Court. Call (941) 477-6888 to reach a registered Palm Beach County bondsman who can post at the facility.
All arrests in these cities are processed through the county jail. The booking and bail process described above applies to every one of them.
