Germantown police chief to retire after 47-year officer career

A release from the city of Germantown called McGill’s time as chief as providing “stability and a consistent source of leadership,” as well as building trust with the community by engaging with residents.

City Manager Judy Gileland said the positive impact of McGill cannot be overstated.

“He has been stalwart in his commitment to uphold the ideals of public service and ensure the safety and well-being of our residents throughout his career,” Gileland said.

“I love this community; its history, its people, and its unique persona. I consider it a true honor to have been in service to this city,” McGill said.
