Police Department Promotes Officers On October 1, 2015 the Police Department promoted two officers to the rank of Lieutenant. Lieutenant Jeff Longo (on the left) a 23 year member of the Department has been a patrol Sergeant for seven years as well as a field training officer and an EMT. Lieutenant Jim Bostock (on the right) has been a patrol Sergeant for three years as well as a member of the Youth Services unit and a firearms range instructor. Both officers will be assigned to road patrol. “I am extremely proud of these guys” said Chief Hill- er. They were the top two finishers in the promotional process which was extensive. The dedication and com- mitment shown by these officers to accomplish this is another example of the outstanding officers that work for Grosse Pointe Park. Chief Dave Hiller (center) should also be mentioned as he will be retiring in December after 44 years of dedicated service. He began his career with the City of Grosse Pointe Park in 1972, earning promotions up through the Director’s position, becoming Sergeant in 1982, and then Chief in 1988. He is also the National Vice President of the Fraternal Order of Police. We wish him all the best and give him a heartfelt thank you for his years of hard work and dedication to our City. 2 Community Park Hours Park Pass Information Patterson Park It is the goal of the City of Grosse Pointe Park to continue to provide to you, the residents, 8:00 a.m. to Dusk the best possible service and recreational facilities.
