DID YOU KNOW.....that Grand Haven Police Officers put the SAFE in safety??? They are not just cops cruzing the streets. They are human beings that care. I know, I have experienced their awesomeness on numerous occasions. Grand Haven is fortunate to have these dedicated men and women protecting us. The future director must appreciate his or her responsibilities to his/her officers and the city of Grand Haven. 'Nuff said.
