John,

Are we replacing two officers or adding two new positions?

Rick the 2010 budget called for one narcotics officer and two patrolmen and the Council approved the additional patrolmen with the stipulation that they not start until the second half of the fiscal year. These are the two additional patrolmen that you are seeing advertised.

Becoming a police officer is a very rewarding career as you are able to help people on a daily basis and give something back to the community. You will also get to work with some of the most challenging people imaginable who constantly test your skills as an Officer.
