(KMZA)--For the second year in row, the Seneca Police Department has been recognized by AAA Kansas for their efforts in addressing local traffic safety issues.
Jim Hanni, vice-president of AAA Kansas, presented Police Chief Jordan Weaver with the organization’s 2017 Community Traffic Safety Platinum award during the Seneca City Council meeting last week.
Hanni said thirty-four police departments across the state were selected for the 2017 awards, with sixteen being platinum awards.
