Hall sworn in as deputy chief in Mount Angel

By Stephen Floyd

The City of Mount Angel has promoted Charles Hall to the new position of deputy police chief as the department evolves following Chief Mark Daniel assuming his co-role as city manager.

Hall was promoted during a ceremony in City Hall July 24 from his position as sergeant, which he had held since 2018.

A statement from the Mount Angel Police Department on Facebook said the promotion would help Hall “move even further up the ladder in the future.”

“DC Hall has taken significant steps to become a solid leader,” said the statement, which encouraged residents to congratulate the new deputy chief.

The move comes  comes as Daniel enters his second year of serving as both police chief and city manager for Mount Angel. He had been chief for four years when he assumed the role of interim city manager in 2021, and after a search for a full-time candidate, the council selected Daniel as city manager in 2022.
