SCOTT CITY RESTRUCTURES ITS POLICE DEPARTMENT

SCOTT CITY -- Several appointments have been made at the Scott City Police Department, the result of a restructuring of the department, according to Mayor Shirley Young.

The appointments were made during a closed meeting of the City Council Monday. The restructuring means no new positions in the department, Young said.

Appointed to the position of road sergeant was Rob Elledge, a former corporal with the department. James Odom was appointed administrative sergeant, Young said. Odom formerly worked for the department but resigned in April, 1990.

Bobby Wooten, a former reserve officer with the department, was named senior patrolman.

Hired as a dispatcher was Anita Beth Smith, a former reserve dispatcher, Young said, and Jeff Schwettman was appointed the reserve force as a patrolman.

The council also accepted the resignation of Sgt. Mark Bertolina.

Others remaining in the same positions are Chief David Beck and patrolmen Randy Zimmerman, Danny Club and Eric Schafer.
