A search is underway for a new leader of a police department. Residents are being asked to share their thoughts on what qualities and priorities the next chief should have. This input will be gathered through community sessions, the first of which is scheduled for Tuesday.

These sessions are part of a broader effort to find a replacement for the previous chief, who resigned amid allegations of interference in an investigation. An interim chief has been in place since June and has stated that he will not seek the permanent position.

Further details about the search process and upcoming community sessions are available.
