It is our pleasure to announce the promotion of Christopher Wolfer to the position of Chief of Police for the North Catasauqua Police Department. This follows an intensive interview process of numerous candidates from around the region conducted by the borough in the fall of 2019, as well as a months-long interim appointment as a means of providing additional experience in the role.
Chief Wolfer has served the North Catasauqua Police Department since 2013, and has served as Corporal since 2018. Chief Wolfer has been acting as Chief since July of 2019 with the untimely passing of Chief Kim Moyer. He has served with distinction in this role, and has provided valuable leadership in the department.
In the interim, Chief Wolfer has:
- Implemented a “business check” policy to assist local businesses in ensuring that their premises are secure at night
- Increasing training of officers to enhance their strengths
- Enhanced the effectiveness of our officers by adding computing resources
- Represented North Catasauqua in regional police and planning meetings
- Revised working schedules
- Provided an enhanced level of data analysis for events in the borough
Overall, Chief Wolfer has demonstrated service to the Borough of North Catasauqua with honor and fidelity following his interim appointment.
We look forward to Chief Wolfer’s continued service to the borough, and we wish him the best of luck in his new role.
Sincerely,
Peter Paone Borough Council President, North Catasauqua
William Molchany Mayor, North Catasauqua
