The Burnet Police Department is responsible for a coverage area through the City's Extra Territorial Jurisdiction (one mile outside the current City Limit). The City also maintains Mutual Aid Agreements with County, State and other local law enforcement agencies.

The administrative facility for police operations is located at 2000 S. Water Street, next to the Fire Department.
