We currently have two openings for police officers, but we anticipate additional vacancies throughout 2025. This is likely the only opportunity to get your name on the hiring list this calendar year. The next opportunity will be in 2026.
We are incredibly proud of Lieutenants Rachael Ahart and Laura Tison, who graduated from the prestigious Northwestern Center of Public Safety School of Police Staff & Command this afternoon!
