Officer Kula served 45 years in law enforcement at the federal, state, and municipal levels, including his final assignment as a part-time officer with the Plattsmouth Police Department.

Chief Rathman and Sgt. Hardy attended last night’s City Council meeting to accept a proclamation from Mayor Lambert recognizing and supporting the Plattsmouth Police Department during National Police Week.

As we head into the busy summer travel season, one of the simplest ways to stay safe on the road is to buckle your seatbelt every trip, every time.
Beginning Friday and continuing through early June, our officers will be conducting overtime enforcement efforts focused on seatbelt compliance, thanks to continued support from our partners at the Nebraska Department of Transportation Highway Safety Office.
Seatbelts save lives, and we’ll continue spreading the message to “Click It” every time you get in a vehicle. It’s that important!
