Eiesland To Retire As Wasco County Sheriff Effective April 30

Wasco County Sheriff Rick Eiesland told County Commissioners on Wednesday he will be retiring effective April 30.  Eiesland had previously announced he would not run for re-election for the job he moved into in 2004.  He served the Wasco County Sheriff’s Office for a total of 28 years.  After submitting his retirement letter today, Eiesland said he is turning 65 next month, adding law enforcement is a young man’s game, and he feels it’s a good time for a transition.  Eiesland recommended County Commissioners appoint Chief Deputy Lane Magill to fill the remainder of his term.  Magill has already announced he will run for Sheriff in the upcoming election.  Commissioners will act on that at a later date.
