Police Chief Chad Dick told the board that JPD continues to have problems with its fleet and continuing repairs have been necessary. Dick thanked Assistant Police Chief Aaron Persohn for his work in ensuring that officers have working vehicles, even relinquishing his own patrol vehicle for use. He noted that Persohn’s work is often “behind the scenes” and critical to the department’s success.
