Mike Brower was sworn in as Lindonâs new police chief on Dec. 21. Brower comes to Lindon with more than two decades of public safety experience.
Former police chief Josh Adams left his position in Lindon in October to take over as Orem Police Departmentâs chief of police. At that time, Lindon began a search for someone to take over heading up the department.
According to City Administrator Adam Cowie, Lindon City received 43 applications for the position.
âThere were many very qualified applicants,â he said. âAll of our finalists were very capable of filling the role as chief. Having so many great applicants was a good problem to have. We believe it shows that Lindon Police Department has a good reputation with excellent officers and civilian employees that help make it a great police department. Weâre confident Chief Brower will lift our police department to even higher levels of excellence.
