Today was Bellingham Interim Police Chief Flo Simon’s first full day as the City’s first female police chief, after a ceremonial passing of the chief’s badge yesterday (Monday, Jan. 4, 2021).

Interim Chief Simon is a 30-year veteran of the department who most recently served as Deputy Chief. As announced last month, Bellingham Mayor Seth Fleetwood selected her to serve as interim chief upon the retirement of former Chief David Doll, whose last day was yesterday.
