Maplewood Police Department Acting Chief of Police, Major Matt Nighbor emailed to Maplewood block leaders last week that a reorganization of the Maplewood Police Department will go into effect this week designed to enhance community policing by adding an additional community resource officer, going from two to three community resource officers.
Nighbor said this unit will also be responsible for addressing code and housing violations.
They will work with community members and residents to address these matters in an efficient way, Nighbor said. A new email address (CommunityPolice @cityofmaplewood.com) has been assigned for these officers (Corporal Kristen Prest, Officer Dustin Hoskins, and Officer Jason Schuster) for messages or concerns.
