12 members of the police department were promoted, and were honored during a Promotion Ceremony held at the Rialto Playhouse on January 22. By David Phillips
O
n January 22nd at the Rialto Playhouse, 12 staff members with the Rialto Police Department were
promoted. These promotions were made possible by opening up positions that were closed or frozen, as well as recent retirements. The Rialto City Council has looked at staffing levels and
is looking for areas where increasing staff in the Police Department will have the greatest impact on the community and residents. One thing that has changed with
these promotions is that the Police Department now has 5 lieutenants and there are plans to go back to having four area commands instead of splitting the city Promotions, cont. on next pg.
