Vernon’s top cop bids farewell
VERNON, B.C. — Vernon’s ‘top cop’ has said his goodbyes to city council.
Jim McNamara will be retiring as superintendent of the Vernon-North Okanagan detachment this Friday, ending a 33 year policing career.
His last official day is May 3, but due to holiday time and other matters, he will call it a career March 2.
The 57 year old was thanked by council members Monday for his efforts over eight years in Vernon, including showing compassion when dealing with Vernon’s social issues.
