NEWBURGH – Former Beacon
Police Chief Douglas Solomon is going to be named Newburgh police chief
on a provisional basis. He will be required to take an open competitive
civil service exam when it becomes available.
Solomon served most recently as Beacon City Police chief and before that
as Monticello Village chief.
His appointment in Newburgh will end several years of acting chiefs named
from among the ranks of the lieutenants in the department.
Ciaravino chose Solomon because of his extension background in the diverse
communities where he previously served.
