ST. AUGUSTINE BEACH, Fla. – Interim Police Chief Daniel Carswell has been selected to take on the permanent role for the city of St. Augustine Beach.
The City Commission voted unanimously Monday to appoint Carswell as the permanent chief. He has served as the interim chief since Nov. 9, 2020, following the departure of Rob Hardwick to become the St. Johns County Sheriff.
Hardwick was among those who spoke on Carswell’s behalf at the meeting, saying he strongly supports Carswell both as the sheriff and someone with family living in St. Augustine Beach.
