The community of Eagle Lake is considering a restructuring of the community’s police department. The Eagle Lake City Council will be seeking public feedback (Monday) on a proposal that would add a third full-time officer to the department and eliminate the current chief of police position. The proposal would have the city contract with the Blue Earth County Sheriff’s Office to hire a chief law enforcement officer to fulfill administrative duties and current chief John Kopp would transition into the third full-time officer position.
