Dear Mrs. Howington,
I respectfully request that Officer Brian Jones be confirmed as a patrol officer for
the Kalispell Police Department. Officer Jones has successfully completed his one
year probationary period effective August 4, 2009.
Officer Jones came to us from Nampa, Idaho Police Department where he served
for just over five years. Officer Jones arrived with substantial training and very
high recommendations.
