Redmond, WA – The City of Redmond is seeking community feedback on the recruitment process for the next Chief of Police. The City's recruiting firm, Public Sector Search & Consulting, will host two community forums to provide Redmond residents the opportunity to share their thoughts in person on the personal characteristics and professional experience that are most important for the individual leading our Police Department.

Following the community involvement process, Public Sector Search & Consulting will gather and screen applications. The candidates will be presented to the City and interviewed by several panels. The panelists will provide critical feedback to the Mayor and Chief Operating Officer, who will ultimately make the appointment.  

The community input sessions are scheduled on the following dates at the following locations:

  • Wednesday, June 5, 2019, from 7 to 8 p.m., Redmond City Hall – Council Chambers
  • Thursday, June 6, 2019, from 3 to 4 p.m., Redmond City Hall – Council Chambers

All members of the public are welcome to attend one or more of these community events.

For questions and more information on this press release contact Lisa Maher, Communications & Marketing Manager, at lmaher@redmond.gov or 425-556-2427. This press release is available on www.redmond.gov.
