Oscoda Township approves Police Chief search protocol and several personnel actions
Summary
The board approved a Police Chief Search Committee Protocol Document, authorized a special assignment for CRO Sheila Palmer, approved a DPW director job posting, and classified $486.84 in pre-petitioned water charges as subject to bankruptcy relief.
At its Oct. 27 meeting the Oscoda Township Board approved a Police Chief Search Committee Protocol Document that sets the process for evaluating and interviewing candidates for the township police chief position. Supervisor Nicole Tregear moved the protocol and Ms. Tait supported the motion; the motion carried on a roll-call vote.
The board also approved a set of personnel and administrative items. Members approved a special assignment for Community Resource Officer Sheila Palmer for the week of March 25–31, 2026; the DPW director job description and posting were approved for recruitment; and the board authorized classification of pre-petitioned water charges totaling $486.84 as subject to a bankruptcy order of relief, with no further collection action to be pursued on those amounts.
Each of these items was approved by roll-call vote and recorded as carried in the minutes. The meeting record does not include details about the Police Chief search committee membership, timeline for the search, or planned interview dates; those details may be developed under the approved protocol and reported in subsequent meetings.
Next steps: township staff will process the DPW posting and CRO scheduling and follow the approved search-protocol steps for recruiting and interviewing police-chief candidates; the bankruptcy-classified charges will not be subject to further collection action, per the board’s motion.
