New Lennox captain; new Lawndale lieutenant
Matt Dendo, a lieutenant at the station, will be promoted to captain and take over for Capt. Kevin Goran, who was promoted to commander.
The Lennox station has jurisdiction in Lennox, Lawndale, and the unincorporated areas of Del Aire, El Camino Village and Athens.
Goran will work in the Sheriff’s Department’s Region II offices, which oversee a number of stations including Lennox, Lomita, Carson and Marina del Rey.
In addition, Lt. Dominic Valencia was named to head the Lawndale service center. He succeeds Lt. Arlene Berner, who also was promoted to captain.
She will work in the Sheriff’s Department’s Community Oriented Policing Services Bureau in Monterey Park.
The changes will take effect in early April.
