During the May meeting of the Ashland Borough Council, which was held Wednesday evening, a new part-time police officer was hired.
Council voted unanimously to hire Elizabeth Raibeck, of Schuylkill Haven.
According to Chief Gerard Daley, "She will be a very good addition to the Ashland Police Department. There are many times when a female is needed and there aren't very many available in the area. "
Daley says Raibeck comes with experience as a park ranger at Shikellamy State Park.
