Spencer, IA (KICD) — City department heads gave their monthly reports at Spencer’s City Council meeting Monday night. Fire Chief Jesse Coulson said calls are up.

Coulson called out his volunteers for handling two simultaneous emergencies a couple of weeks ago.

Police Chief Mark Warburton had his stats for the month of May:

Warburton also announced some new appointments. Daaron Hansen has resigned from the force to take a job with the Park Department, so Officer Blake Diekman will be the new School Resource Officer.

And Officer Turner Soden has been named the new K-9 officer for Spencer Police. The city hopes to get the new dog in the fall. Warburton says the K-9 Unit will be used for drug cases only.
