Neibert appointed

Pat Neibert will assume the newly created position at the Nappanee Police Department as Communications Supervisor, as announced by Mayor Robert Callander earlier last week. “I will be a liaison person between the fire, police and EMS departments,” said Neibert. “I am the training officer for the fire department, and I hope to further the training of the dispatchers,” he continued. “We do a good job, and I’m proud of that. We want to keep on improving,” he said. With the new position, it is hoped that this will take some of the work load off of the Chief of Police. (AN photo by Marie Dobecki)
