Jared Garcia will leave his position as Moab City Police Chief at the end of September, just fifteen months after he started. In a press release, city leaders praised his efforts to improve officer morale and training as well as build stronger relationships within the community. Garcia will become a deputy executive director at the Utah Department of Corrections. Plus, our radio partners interview a Utah professor who released an emergency briefing on Great Salt Lake.
