New year, new officers! In this episode, the first of 2026, new solo officers Lily Talley and Josh Dobson. They begin their careers together, but their paths to get here were vastly different.

As we look forward, Interim Chief Jackie Stepp looks back as we see where 2025 ranked in several important categories.

And from Community Engagement, one more chance to hear from Senior Police Officer Isaiah Senyak, who’s changing job titles soon. Find out more about his new role.
