“Deputy Chief Cougle is deeply committed to this community,” said Police Chief Jason Moen. “He lives and works here, has built his life and family here, and is well-respected among his peers and by residents. I am truly looking forward to working with Tim as we begin a new leadership journey with the agency.”

In 2002, Cougle received the “Act of Bravery by a Law Enforcement Officer” award from the Maine Chiefs of Police Association. In 2018, he received the Auburn Police Department’s award for “Supervisor of the Year.”
