The Chilton Police Department has named their next police chief.
Jason Kvalheim earned the promotion after a long and distinguished career with Chilton Police while also serving in many roles throughout the department.
According to a Facebook Post, Chief Kvalheim was promoted to captain in March 2015 prior to becoming the chief.
The police department continues saying he has strong and positive connections with the community, which will continue in his present position.
Kvalheim is a graduate of the Wisconsin Law Enforcement Command College as a Class 8 graduate.
The change also included a promotion of Officer Steven Petrie to Captain to fill Kvalheim’s role. The change happened last Sunday.
