One word kept floating around the room Thursday at a retirement reception for former Statesboro Police chief Stan York and former police lieutenant Frank Roach: “bittersweet.” The reception was for both York and Roach, each whose positions were “eliminated” by the City of Statesboro in what officials call a money-saving move. Six positions, including two Statesboro Fire captain positions, were eliminated.
