Retirement
Congratulations |
|
North To Alaska |
Captain
Mike Hughes has announced his retirement, after serving
nearly 20 years with the Saginaw Police Department. Mike
recently accepted the position of Chief of Police for
the city of Wasilla, Alaska and is leaving us on April
30th. During his
career in Saginaw, Mike was instrumental in facilitating
countless policies, practices and procedures, and worked
on several high profile cases, including the Opal Jo
Jennings kidnapping. He was also very active in the
training community, teaching at Tarrant County College,
Columbia College, and the North Central Texas COG Police
Academy.
We'll miss Mike's wit,
leadership and expertise, and wish him all the best in
his new adventure!

Tired Of Graffiti?
So Are We! |
|
Click
HERE
for online reporting of existing graffiti. |
|
Here
in Saginaw, we've seen an increase in graffiti in a few sections
of the city. And while it is certainly not "out of
control," no one likes the resulting eye sore this activity
produces. Cities throughout our country have discovered
that rapid abatement goes a long way toward minimizing the impact
that graffiti has on a community. Unchecked, however, it
often increases. This is NOT what we want to see here.
How can you help? By
reporting the problem. If you see graffiti, let us know.
If you see someone committing the crime, call 911.
Community involvement is essential to successful reduction
efforts. Help us help you! |
