Police chief search continues in Libby, Montana

The City of Libby will more-than-likely set a new deadline for chief of police applicants, as only one person has shown interest so far after a month of local and statewide advertising.

“I think we’ll probably re-open and put it out there again,” Mayor Doug Roll said, “see if we can beat the bushes a little more.”

The department http://www.libbypolice.org/lpdp2.htm is currently carrying on with just three officers – one recently hired – since former chief of police Clay Coker left to pursue a law degree and two other officers resigned.

Young, less experienced officer candidates usually apply in small towns like Libby, Roll said, but a potential chief of police is harder for the city to appeal to.
