Glen County names Brian Sap Cy as new chief of police

After convening an executive session March 19 to discuss personnel, property and potential litigation matters, the Glen County Board of Commissioners returned to open session and moved to appoint Brian Sap Cy as the county's new chief of police and approve an employment agreement.

Commissioner Rafalski made the motion and it was seconded and approved by the board; the chair called for applause and Sap Cy briefly addressed the commission, thanking them for the appointment and saying he looks forward to serving the community where he grew up.

The board also approved executive-session minutes for March 5 and accepted the county attorney's recommendations on potential litigation and the director of engineering's recommendations on property acquisition earlier in the meeting. No further personnel details or contract terms were read into the public record at the time of the vote.

Sap Cy said he was "eager to get to work" and expressed a goal of making Glen County "the safest place to live, play, and work." The board adjourned after the appointment.
