The award will be presented during the California Police Chiefs Association Annual Training Symposium Luncheon on March 19, 2018. Chief Scott Whitney plans for the agency to be well-represented on this date, and will have a number of officers present from every level of the department, in addition to community members:
Jefe Scott Whitney: “I am very proud of our officers and civilian staff at every level of the department. We are also very grateful for all of our community members that are willing to step up, partner with us and help make our city safer.”
Chief Whitney added in an email message to all members of the Police Department: “Most importantly, this award was based upon the work that you all do every day. I am very proud of this agency and everyone in it, and am very grateful for not only what you do, but how well you do it!”
