June 27, 2025 is my last day as your Police Chief at the City of Devine Police Department.
As I approach this next phase in my life, I reflect on my time with the Devine Police Department with great fondness and satisfaction. It has been a great honor and privilege to serve the citizens of Devine, these 9 ½ years along with the amazing officers and employees at Devine Police Department.
I have made a lot of friends, and have a lot of memories that will last a lifetime.
The success we have enjoyed at Devine Police Department is not because of the Chief but because of the dedicated officers and staff who fulfilled the mission and goals of the department.
I would like to express my sincere thanks for the opportunities I’ve had to grow and the leadership that has guided my journey. The experiences I’ve gained here are invaluable and have shaped my career in countless ways.
As I prepare to depart, I am committed to ensuring a smooth transition. Thank you all for your continued support.
Thank you once again for an unforgettable and rewarding journey.
Warm regards,
Kandy L. Benavides
