Sylvania Police Division gets certified!
Because of the many incidents around the country, Ohio Governor Mike DeWine recently called for all police departments, approximately 800 in all, to become certified by the Ohio Police Collaborative. I am happy to report the Sylvania Police Division has been working on this certification process for over a year, and has now received Provisional Agency Certification.
Congratulations to Chief Rick Schnoor and the Sylvania Police Division for attaining these certifications. Further, the Ohio Collaborative featured the Sylvania Police Division in their June, 2020 monthly newsletter. Click here for more information!
