To the Community of Foster,

After nearly three decades of service, and the last three years serving as your Police Chief, my tenure here is coming to a close.

I am honored to have led the dedicated men and women of the Foster Police Department. I end this chapter knowing that so many improvements have been made. The most important one however, is the morale of our officers, dispatchers and civilians.

I’m proud of what we’ve accomplished and I’m grateful to the community for accepting me with open arms.

I feel honored and privileged to have served you, your families and the businesses. I wish you all nothing but peace, health and happiness.
Please be kind to one another. Always.

With Respect and Gratitude,
Chief Gina Lindell
