Jack Cauley confirmed as Castle Rock’s new police chief
A 25-year police veteran and current deputy chief of the Overland Park (Kan.) Police Department will lead Castle Rock’s Police Department beginning in the new year, Town Council confirmed Tuesday.
Council voted unanimously to ratify Town Manager Mark Stevens’ recommendation that John (Jack) Cauley be appointed the Town’s new police chief, effective Jan. 3.
Cauley succeeds former Chief Tony Lane, who retired in September after 24 years with the department.
“I am humbled and honored to have been appointed to the position of chief of police for the Town of Castle Rock,” Cauley said Tuesday. “My family and I are excited about moving to Castle Rock and becoming active members of the community.”
Cauley began his law enforcement career as a police dispatcher with the Lenexa (Kan.) Police Department. He has spent the last 25 years with the Overland Park department, serving at all levels and in nearly all areas, including patrol, investigations, traffic, professional standards and crime analysis. He holds a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice, a master of public administration from the University of Kansas and is a graduate of the FBI National Academy.
The lifelong Midwesterner is moving to Colorado to join his wife, Deanna. She has lived in the Denver metro area for about a year while working for Red Robin restaurants.
“I believe Jack is an excellent fit for our department, organization and community, with the skills, abilities, experience, knowledge and attitude to be an outstanding Castle Rock police chief,” Stevens said regarding Cauley’s appointment. “I believe he brings the balance of outstanding high-level public safety and law enforcement skills and experience, with the leadership and management approaches and capabilities we need.”
Cauley was selected from among 186 applicants for the post – a high number that reflects the Town’s reputation as a desired community in which to live and practice law enforcement. Police Department and other Town employees, along with community and Councilmembers, were involved in selecting Cauley as the Town’s new police chief.
Cauley said during the interview process that he intends to spend his first months as police chief listening to and getting to know the department and the community.
“Former Chief of Police Tony Lane built a solid, professional Police Department,” he said. “I look forward to building on that success, with a focus on people, innovation and community.”
