Tim worked in the San Andreas area until November 2001 when he accepted an assignment in Sacramento at the Valley Division Office.
In February 2003, Officer Port was promoted to Sergeant where he worked at Capitol Protection Section and then State Terrorism Threat Assessment Center. July 2006, Tim promoted to Lieutenant, working in the North Sacramento Area Office and then the Stockton Area Office. January 2, 2009, Lieutenant Port accepted the position as Area Commander of the San Andreas Office.
“It was a great pleasure to have lived and worked in Calaveras County. I will miss the people of this community that I have had the pleasure of meeting over the years, but the hardest thing about retiring will be no longer working with some of the finest men and women in the California Highway Patrol. It was a privilege to work with every one of them”, stated Lieutenant Tim Port.
