A little over a week after officially becoming the interim chief of police for the city’s police department, Michael Cochran was officially sworn in as the interim chief Tuesday night in front of family, friends, and city council by City Judge Jay Cranmer.
Cochran previously worked for the Moffat County Sheriff’s Office as the Emergency Management Coordinator before coming over to the police department once again, having previously worked as a Craig detective from October 2018 to January 2020.
Following Cochran’s official swearing in, City Manager Peter Brixius stated that the city is pleased to have Cochran in this new role for the department.

A little under a month after Craig’s city council appointed him to fill a vacant seat, David Bruce Cummings was sworn in during Tuesday night’s meeting by City Judge Jay Cranmer.
Cummings took the oath of office in front of fellow councilors, staff, family, friends and community members inside the council chambers shortly after the start of the first meeting of the year.
The Craig resident filled the vacant seat of former councilor Tony Bohrer, who coincidentally was sworn into office as a county commissioner Tuesday morning at the Moffat County Courthouse.
