RE:

Resignation/Retirement

Please accept this letter as my formal notification that I will be resigning from my position as
Interim Chief. My last day will be December 5, 2019.

I will also be retiring from Washington

State Law Enforcement.
It has been my honor to serve the residents of the City of Bainbridge Island for the past 5 years
and be a member of the Bainbridge Island Police Department. It is with a heavy heart that I
move on to other opportunities. I will work with Interim Deputy Chief Weiss in the time before
my last day to get him up to speed and ready for the transition to the new chief. While I have
had many successes during my time here, I will say that serving as the Accreditation Manager
and helping the department become State Accredited for the first time in history was very
rewarding.
I wish you and the department success as I transition out.
Respectfully,

#~~
Jeff Horn
