Police Clerk
December 24th, 2020
HPD is happy to announce that we have selected Beth Sadler for the position of Police Clerk. Beth comes to us after serving eight years with the Larue County Sheriffs Office. Beth is has tremendous experience with the local court system as well as intimate knowledge of the operating systems HPD uses on a daily basis.
Beth will be start January 4th, 2021. With the addition of Beth as our clerk, HPD will finally have a person to speak to when you come to the department. For far too long visitors had to use a phone on the wall to speak to dispatch instead of having a person to speak to.
We would also like to thank those applicants that were not selected for this position. We had very well qualified, respected applicants for this position. The quality of the applicants made it clear that HPD is attracting the right folks from our community! The City of Hodgenville will maintain these applications for one year and will contact applicants if other positions open within the city.

New ranks and new faces!
