(SHERWOOD, Ore.) - The City of Sherwood announces today the resignation of Sherwood Director of Public Safety, Ronald C. Ruecker, effective January 15th, 2009.

Mr. Ruecker is relocating to Washington, D.C., to be appointed to the position of Assistant Director of the Office of Law Enforcement Coordination (OLEC) within the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

The OLEC was established by FBI Director Mueller in 2002 to enhance coordination and communication between the FBI and its federal, state, local, county, tribal, and campus law enforcement partners.

The Assistant Director of OLEC advises FBI executives on ways to enhance the FBI's working relationship with its partners and the use of state and local law enforcement expertise and resources in FBI investigations.

OLEC is the FBI's primary liaison for the national law enforcement associations and organizations, and ensures the needs and concerns of state and local law enforcement agencies are being addressed within the FBI.

The position is also responsible for liaison with the Department of Homeland Security, the Attorney General's Director of Intergovernmental and Public Affairs, the Department of Justice's Office of Justice Programs, and the Office of Community Oriented Policing Services.

"Over the past 2 years Director Ruecker has served our City with honor and dignity. He came to Sherwood during a very challenging time and leaves having made a positive difference. He now goes to Washington D.C to serve the United States of America with the FBI and we wish him and his family well. The City of Sherwood is grateful for his service," said Sherwood City Manager Jim Patterson.
