FARGO (KFGO/KVRR) — The Fargo City Commission unanimously approved Assistant Police Chief Travis Stefonowicz as the department’s interim chief after the retirement of Chief Dave Zibolski.
Stefonowicz has been with the Fargo Police Department since 2002.
City Administrator Michael Redlinger says Stefonowicz’s thoughtful approach and commitment to both public safety and officer wellness make him exceptionally well-suited to lead the department.
“I am honored to step into this role and continue serving alongside the dedicated men and women of The Fargo Police Department,” said Interim Chief Travis Stefonowicz. “Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working with individuals who are deeply committed to this profession and to our community. During this period of transition, my focus will be on providing consistency, stability and support for our team while we strive to provide the high level of service our community expects and deserves.”
The position for police chief will be posted on May 11 and close on June 19 with the selection process beginning in mid-July. That will come after the June election when a new mayor and two new commissioners will be voted in.
