FLPD Update

FLPD Chief of Police Rick Maglione

I want to start by saying THANK YOU!!!
For what you may ask?

hank you for showing your love and support of your police department at
the polls on March 12. Thank you for understanding the need to have a
Tsafe, hurricane rated facility, equipped with energy efficient features and
modern technology so we can operate an effective and efficient law enforcement
agency that other agencies can only attempt to emulate. Thank you for
understanding the need to consider long term cost savings by minimizing the leases
of other properties that will no longer be necessary as well as reducing the countless
dollars spent on keeping your current facility operational. Lastly, thank you for
understanding the need for your police headquarters to reflect the quality of your
police department and the folks who work here.
I would also like to take a moment to brag about the quality of your new police
officers and extend the credit to our Recruiting Team, the Background Investigations
Rick Maglione Unit, the Training Unit and the Field Training Officers who have all went above and
beyond during this campaign. We just graduated seven more cadets from the
Chief of Police
Broward College Institute of Public Safety Police Academy on March 14, 2019, and I
think they are a shining example of the fine women and men who will be protecting
the City for years to come. A number of our cadets also held class offices and earned
numerous prestigious awards:
• Honor Medallion – Cadet R. Bouchelle
• Physical Fitness Award – Cadet J. Hoffman
• Firearms Proficiency Award – Cadet I. Peña
• Frankie Shivers Award – Cadet M. Sandelier
• Academy Class 321 President – Cadet A. Williams
• Academy Class 321 Treasurer – Cadet Q. Wright
• Academy Class 321 Company Commander – Cadet R. Bouchelle
Runner-Up Acknowledgements:
• Firearms Proficiency Award – Cadet R. Bouchelle
• Academic Award – Cadet R. Bouchelle

We only have a handful of police officer
vacancies remaining and have many in
various stages of training preparing to hit
the streets. So what does that mean for our
neighbors? It means we will be more
responsive. We will be more visible. We will
be able to fill the vacancies in our specialty
units that will allow us to provide those extra services that help reduce crime and build
community. For more information on employment with your police department, please

Thank you all for your continued partnerships and support of your police department.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any comments or concerns.
Yours in service,

Chief Rick Maglione
