Open Discussion:

  • Chief Karlgaard acknowledged Officer Ryen Drews.  It is his one-year anniversary as a Breckenridge Police Officer (Part-Time and Full-Time).  He also recognized Ethan Karlgaard who started as a Police Cadet on July 1, 2025.  He stated that a cadet’s responsibilities include addressing public nuisance issues, enforcing pardon violations, and responding to a number of different types of calls.  Chief listed all the calls that Ethan has responded to.  He said that the Cadet program is a huge asset to the City and because of everything that Ethan has done, it takes a lot off his plate, as well as the other officers, and keeps the police department from getting complaints on those types of calls.

  • Dale Anderson was in to talk about the school.  He said if we were going to tear down the school, why don’t we put in some public housing.  He also said that we need to be looking at the school system and why the kids are leaving our school district
