Munhall police chief to retire Aug. 15; council to post vacancy next week
Summary
Councilors acknowledged a retirement notice from the police chief effective Aug. 15 and agreed to post the job next week so a successor can be identified before the departure.
Munhall Borough’s police chief submitted notice that he will retire effective Aug. 15. Councilors discussed the timing and agreed to post the vacancy next week to begin a search with the intent of overlapping the new hire with the current chief if possible.
Councilors said they will advertise the chief’s position, accept applications and proceed with a search now to allow time for transition; no candidate selection was made at the workshop. The council also discussed internal continuity and the value of an overlap to provide hand‑off time.
Staff said they would post the position in the coming week and return with a timeline for hiring and any interim coverage plan needed during the transition.
