One year after becoming Algoma's new police chief, Randy Remiker is not regretting his move back to the area from the warm Southwest United States.  A Manitowoc County native, Remiker, worked for the Albuquerque Police Department for over 21 years before accepting the position in December of 2018.  Remiker says the adjustment to a mucher smaller community has been very positive.

Remiker took office one year ago after Kewaunee County ended their agreement to provide services at the end of 2018.  He adds that  reported crimes and arrests have been trending down over the past few years in Algoma.
