Board opens search-and-selection process, will revise job description

Metropolitan Board of Police Commissioners · September 2, 2026

Summary

The board said it will review and improve the department job description, post the vacancy, and seek outside expertise as part of an early-stage search and selection process; the item will be updated at the Oct. 6 meeting.

Chair reported that the board is at an early stage of a search-and-selection process for department staffing and leadership, and that the first step is to improve the job description before posting the position.

The chair said the board intends to balance speed with thoroughness: "We're balancing doing it quickly, but versus doing it correctly. So be patient. This is the beginning." The board plans to post the updated job description and may bring in outside expertise for the selection process. The chair said the board will provide a progress update at its Oct. 6 meeting.

No formal timeline beyond the Oct. 6 update was specified in the transcript.
