Flagstaff Booking Quick Facts
Flagstaff Police Records
The consolidated records program at flagstaff.az.gov/3594/Records serves as the central repository for Flagstaff Police, Coconino County Sheriff, and the county detention facility reports. This unique arrangement means one office handles records for multiple agencies. You can request records from any of these sources through one location.
Flagstaff Police reports cost $8, then 10 cents per page over 20 pages. County sheriff reports are $1 per page for the first nine pages, then 10 cents each after. Body camera video runs $46 per hour reviewed plus $30 for digital storage. This fee covers the time staff spend reviewing and redacting video before release. Personal background checks cost $7. Victims of UCR Part 1 crimes get one free copy of the report related to their case.
Contact records at 928-214-2530. The office is at 911 E. Sawmill Road, Flagstaff, AZ 86001. Staff can answer questions about what records are available and current fees. Submit requests at the office or through the online form at flagstaff.az.gov.
Flagstaff and Coconino County Booking
Flagstaff arrests go to the Coconino County Detention Facility. The county operates two jail facilities. The main jail is in Flagstaff. A second facility operates in Page in the northern part of the county. The county does not publish an online inmate roster. Phone inquiries are the primary way to check custody status.
Call (928) 226-5200 to check on someone in the Flagstaff jail. Page jail is at (928) 645-8873. Staff at these numbers can confirm if someone is in custody and provide basic booking information. They can also tell you about bond amounts and scheduled court appearances. Keep the person's full name and date of birth ready when you call.
The county uses GettingOut and Telmate for inmate communications. These platforms handle video visitation and messaging. Family members can set up accounts to communicate with people in custody. See the Coconino County page for more detention details and contact information.
Arizona Booking Records Law
Flagstaff booking records fall under Arizona's public records statutes. ARS 39-121 requires that public records be open for inspection during office hours. This applies to police reports, arrest logs, and booking documents. The consolidated records program must provide access to these records upon request.
The statute at ARS 41-1750 addresses criminal history records. It exempts police blotters and daily arrest logs from stricter restrictions. This means booking information can be released shortly after an arrest occurs. Flagstaff follows these state requirements just like agencies elsewhere in Arizona.
Some information gets redacted. Victim names and contact details are removed under ARS 13-4434. Juvenile records remain confidential. Active investigation files may be withheld until cases close. These rules protect privacy while allowing public access to most booking records.
VINE Custody Notification
The Arizona VINE system provides custody notifications statewide. VINE tracks inmates in Coconino County detention facilities. Crime victims can register to receive alerts when an offender's custody status changes. This includes releases, transfers, and escapes from any Arizona jail.
Register at vinelink.com or call the Arizona VINE hotline at 1-800-247-9763. Choose how you want to receive alerts: phone, email, text, or through the VINE mobile app. The service operates 24 hours a day, every day of the year. Registration is free and confidential. VINE helps victims stay informed without manually checking jail records.
Note: Since Coconino County does not have online inmate search, VINE is especially useful for tracking custody status.
Getting Flagstaff Arrest Reports
For complete arrest information, you may need records from multiple sources. The consolidated records office handles both police reports and jail records. This makes Flagstaff simpler than some jurisdictions where you must contact separate agencies. Start at the records office for both the arrest report and booking information.
Include as much detail as possible when requesting records. The date of incident, names involved, and case numbers help staff locate files faster. Vague requests take longer to process. The records office number is 928-214-2530 for questions about availability and fees before submitting your request.
