It is our honor to announce Senior Police Officer Sean Chandler’s intent to retire on January 30, 2024. This date represents just over 25 years of loyal and dedicated service to the citizens of Westminster and nearly 30 years of law enforcement service. Sean began his law enforcement career in Cabell County, West Virginia, in 1993. In 1998 Sean’s family made the move to Colorado, in part due to the abundant outdoor activities in the state. During his tenure at Westminster PD Sean made substantial contributions as a Patrol Officer, Field Training Officer, Traffic Officer, and School Resource Officer. Sean was also awarded a Medal of Valor, Meritorious Service Medal, and a Purple Heart.
