The Dansville Online
DANSVILLE The Village of Dansville made it official last week and appointed Shannon Griese Chief of the Dansville Police Department.
Griese has been serving as the Sergeant in Charge since the Oct. 1, 2019 retirement of Charles Perkins. The village board made the appointment on a provisional basis pending Griese passing a formal test for the position.
Mayor Peter Vogt said Griese’s tenure leading the department gave the village board every confidence it had the right candidate for the position in-house.
“He’s done a pretty good job as the Sergeant in Charge. He’s a go getter and we’re real happy with him,” Vogt said. “He has taken the bull by the horns and straightened quite a few things out. We’re on the right track.”
