Paul Folz is the chief of police for the Spring Grove Police Department and is only its only officer. He's planning to retire by the end of the year and the city of 1300 residents is considering disbanding its police force, opting instead to sign a law enforcement contract with the local sheriff's' office. Other small towns across the country are facing similar tough choices.
