Chief Brockenbach awards state law‑enforcement certifications and announces promotions
Summary
Chief Brockenbach presented state general certifications to two officers and announced internal promotions—citing a career development plan that produced a series of recent promotions and transfers in the department.
Chief Brockenbach presented state general law‑enforcement certifications and recognized multiple internal promotions at a Whiteville City Council meeting.
"Upon due consideration, the commission finds that proper application certification has been submitted," Brockenbach said as he read the certification language and announced that officers Terry Wayne Whaley and Brad (last name unclear in transcript) were awarded general certification. He described the certification as remaining "in effect for the duration of their service." He also listed recent promotions: Scott Moody to lieutenant of the criminal and narcotics investigations division, Sergeant JT Ward to sergeant, and Adam Gore to lieutenant of patrol.
Brockenbach framed the promotions as part of a career development plan that includes education, training and service, and said the internal movement creates opportunities for advancement. The recognitions and promotions were presented as ceremonial agenda items and required no council vote.
Council members and the chief said the steps support continuity in department operations and succession planning. No formal actions or budget changes were recorded in the meeting minutes related to the certifications.
