Police report: busy July, officer leaving and recruitment plans
Summary
Harbor Springs police reported a busy July with 18 crashes and no serious injuries, noted one officer will transfer (Officer Steele), and said the department is recruiting licensed applicants and may sponsor recruits through the academy.
A police department representative updated council on July public-safety activity, reporting 18 crashes but no injuries and describing an otherwise productive month. The officer thanked the council for support of patrol vehicles and noted the department has four similar patrol cars.
The department said Officer Steele, who was sponsored through the academy and joined in 2023, will be leaving for a position in Holland; staff said they have a licensed applicant and additional candidates who could be sponsored to the academy if needed. The police representative encouraged residents to document incidents that could support misdemeanor enforcement under the new public-space ordinance.
