An ordinance adopted by the Beach Haven Borough Council on Monday, March 10 will temporarily change the personnel structure of the police department.

The current table of organization calls for the department to have 10 patrol officers, four sergeants, two lieutenants, one captain and one chief. However, Borough Manager Sherry Mason said the need for two captains arose when Capt. Tom Medel put off retirement from mid-year to the end of the year.
