Officer Ingram began his law enforcement career in 2001 with the Onondaga County Sheriff's Department in Syracuse, New York, where he served with distinction for 20 years. During his tenure at OCSD, he worked in road patrol before being promoted to Detective, serving in the Abused Persons Unit.
After retiring in 2021, Officer Ingram relocated to Florida—trading snow for sand—and TIPD is proud to have him join the team. We look forward to the experience, dedication, and professionalism he brings to the Treasure Island Police Department.
Welcome aboard, Officer Ingram!

In our ongoing commitment to transparency, the City of Treasure Island would like to update the community on the rebuilding efforts following Hurricanes Helene and Milton.
from City of Treasure Island
Like residents and businesses, the City must follow a detailed and structured process when handling insurance claims and assessing substantial damage. While this process is essential, it can be lengthy, especially since many coastal communities across Florida are also recovering from storm impacts.
Insurance assessments are complex and subject to change. Figures and determinations shift often as new information becomes available. This is why some city facilities remain temporarily closed, such as the Sunset Beach Pavilion and the Treasure Bay Clubhouse.
The former Public Safety Facility on 108th Avenue, which once housed both the Treasure Island Police Department and Fire Rescue, is currently under evaluation. Insurance adjusters are assessing the cost of restoring the building to its pre-storm condition. However, any necessary updates to ensure the building complies with current building codes, including Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements, are not included in these initial estimates.
Given that the building is over 68 years old, substantial modifications, such as widening hallways and modernizing facilities, will be required. This adds complexity to the decision-making process regarding rebuilding and substantial damage.
What’s Next
FEMA and insurance teams are still conducting thorough assessments across several city sites. The city will share these findings with the public once all evaluations are completed and reports are finalized.
We appreciate your patience and understanding as we navigate this necessary process, and we remain committed to keeping our community informed every step of the way.

On this Earth Day, let’s take a moment to reflect on and cherish the natural beauty that surrounds us daily.
from City of Treasure Island
Treasure Island is truly a paradise; with this gift comes a shared responsibility to care for it. We’re proud to see our community continuously rise to the challenge.
A heartfelt thank you to all volunteers working year-round to protect and preserve our environment. Whether picking up litter, raising funds, or simply leading by example, your efforts make a real difference. A perfect example of what’s possible when we work together is the new refillable water cooler at Gulf Front Park, which was made possible by funds raised from community members who care. It’s a small but powerful step toward reducing single-use plastic and keeping our beaches clean.
Looking to get involved? Mark your calendars for next month’s volunteer planting event at Treasure Bay on May 17 and 18, where we’ll restore pond shorelines with native vegetation. It’s a hands-on way to make a lasting impact and connect with others who care about our community and environment. Sign up here: https://www.mytreasureisland.org/residen...
Coming Soon! The city will announce a public presentation focused on native and Florida-friendly plants that withstood recent saltwater flooding. This is a great opportunity to learn more about what thrives here and how we can all support sustainable landscaping.
Together, we are building a more resilient and beautiful Treasure Island for today and for future generations.

Volunteers spent the morning planting 3,000 sea oats on Treasure Island Beach in the area behind the Jamaican on the Gulf Beach Resort. Sea oats are crucial for beaches because their strong root systems stabilize sand dunes, protecting coastlines from erosion and extreme weather events like hurricanes. They also trap wind-blown sand, which helps build and expand dunes, further bolstering shoreline protection. Additionally, sea oats provide food and shelter for various wildlife.
