Former El Cerrito Police Chief Sylvia Moir appointed to interim post with Napa PD

Sylvia Moir will assume duties as interim chief of the Napa Police Department on Monday following a unanimous City Council vote earlier this week.

Moir, who was chief of the El Cerrito Police Department from 2010-16, will lead the department while the city recruits a permanent chief, a process expected to take six to seven months, city officials said.
