Spring Valley Police Chief Retires

An area police chief has called it quits after more than 30 years in uniform. Spring Valley village police chief Paul Modica retired earlier this month. The department saluted him by driving their cars past him in front of the station with their sirens blaring. In a post on the Spring Valley police department’s Facebook page, chief Modica was praised for his “dedication not only to the members of this department but to the residents of Spring Valley.”
