Rangely police create Community Service Officer division; Lacey Coker named supervisor
Summary
The Rangely police chief outlined a reorganization that combines animal control and code enforcement into a new Community Service Officer division; Lacey Coker was introduced as the CSO supervisor and updated the council on shelter counts.
The Rangely Police Department has reorganized to create a Community Service Officer (CSO) division that groups animal control, code enforcement and other non-sworn tasks under a single, cross-trained team, the police chief said. The change adds personnel capacity for functions such as parade traffic control and animal shelter coverage.
Lacey Coker, who introduced herself to the council as the new CSO supervisor, said the division will expand coverage and cross-train staff. Coker reported the shelter population as “four dogs and zero cats” and noted that one dog was slated for adoption in May. The chief said the restructuring will improve continuity when individual employees are absent and will allow staff to “divide and conquer” routine responsibilities.
