Dan is proud to have worked
in every, division giving him
the skills and the knowledge
to understand and combat
any issues that may arise in
Douglas County.
Platform: Born in Carson
City and raised in Gard-

Douglas County as his home.
He graduated from Doug-
las High School, where he
played football under his
father, Bill Coverley. Coverley
is a well-known name in the
area, as Bill was a long-time

a solution and follow through
to the end. As I walk around
knocking on doors, I have
been listening to what the
community has been saying
and the common comment is
“it’s time for change, and tired
of the status-quo. As your
next Sheriff I will work with
the community on new ideas
and concepts and re-energize
the department’s financial
and operational manage-
ment, as well as the high
employee turnover and low
morale highlighted in the
recent grand jury report.
The budget for the depart-
ment is the largest within
the County’s general fund,
and requires a creative and
conservative fiscal manag-
er to address the paradigm
shift in local government
finance, and to meet the
new challenges facing law
enforcement today.
I believe our public safety
dollars are not being spent
It is my intention to draw
upon my broad based ex-
perience, education, and
extensive executive leadership
history, in both the public and
private sector, to transition
the department into one of
the most modern and profes-
sional agencies in the State.
In order to deliver the
most cost effective public
safety services to our com-
munity, I will:

After college, Dan began
his career in law enforcement
working for the Albuquerque
Police Department. However,
he always felt a connection
with where he grew up, and
decided to come back to
Douglas County, an area he
says is the most beautiful
place to raise a family. He
and his wife, Sarah, have
raised their three daughters,
who continued the family
tradition of attending Doug-
las High School. Dan has
coached football at Douglas
High School, club soccer and
rec league basketball. Dan
enjoys the beauty of Douglas
County and the limitless op-
portunities it allows for rec-
reation. Dan enjoys hunting
and fishing, skiing and team
roping. Dan and his family
have roots in the agriculture
of the valley. They lease a
small ranch in Carson Valley
and raise beef cattle.
