Green Bay Police and Fire Commission retains president, elects new vice president

At its May meeting, the Green Bay Police and Fire Commission voted to retain the sitting president (name not specified in the public record) and elected Marion to serve as vice president.

The choice ensures continuity in the commission’s leadership after the mayor said he is seeking a replacement for an unspecified role, the commission chair said. The chair, who spoke during the meeting and identified themself as willing to continue, opened nominations for president and then for vice president before calling for voice votes.

Commissioners present by name at the start of the meeting included Laura Rohloff, Lause and Goldhahn (attending by Zoom); Commissioner Cobb was excused. Staff member Haley had distributed the meeting agenda by email in advance. The commission conducted nominations for president and vice president under the standard biennial process the commission follows.

When nominations closed, the chair asked those in favor of the chair continuing to signify by saying “aye.” The ayes were unanimous. For vice president, Marion nominated themself and was seconded; the voice vote to confirm Marion as vice president likewise carried without opposition.

The commission completed its other business and adjourned. No details about term lengths, formal swearing-in, or changes to duties were provided at the meeting.
