HONORING CHIEF WILLIAM HART OF THE LONDONDERRY POLICE DEPARTMENT

______

HON. CHRIS PAPPAS

of new hampshire

in the house of representatives

Friday, August 5, 2022

Mr. PAPPAS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Chief William Hart of the Londonderry Police Department. He is retiring after three decades of service to the community to become a United States Marshal for New Hampshire. Chief Hart served in the U.S. Marine Corps before joining the Londonderry community in 1992. Throughout his distinguished career, Chief Hart has served as Londonderry's prosecutor, Rockingham County's attorney, a Captain with the Londonderry Police Department, acting town manager, and most recently as the Chief of Police since 2009.

Chief Hart has dedicated his life to his community and guided the Londonderry Police Department through tremendous growth. He led the department through a new station and building transition, and grew the department to 68 sworn police officers. Bill exemplifies the department's way of building trust: to treat people with kindness, dignity, and respect, no matter what.

As Chief of Police Bill has continuously shown dedication to bettering the community and the Granite State. He has always gone above and beyond to ensure the safety of the people in Londonderry, and all Granite Staters. I have no doubt that his commitment and leadership will continue as he joins the oldest law enforcement agency.

On behalf of my constituents in New Hampshire's First Congressional District, I want to congratulate Chief Hart on his accomplished law enforcement career. I thank him and his family for their decades of dedication to our community and wish him all the best as he embarks on his new journey as a U.S. Marshal.
