FRESNO, CA – Mayor Jerry Dyer and City Manager Georgeanne White are pleased to announce that a firm has been selected to conduct the nationwide search for the next Fresno Police Chief.
Public Sector Search and Consulting will begin the search immediately. The firm specializes exclusively in the recruitment of police executives.
Jointly, the City will be seeking input from the community about what residents would like to see in the new police chief.
The public can provide input through a survey and/or by participating in one of four virtual community meetings.
The dates and times of the online meetings are as follows: Friday, Oct. 18, 11:30 AM, Saturday, Oct. 19, at 10:00 AM, Tuesday, Oct. 22, at 5:30 PM, and Wednesday, Oct. 23, at 7:00 PM.

In addition, sworn and non-sworn employees at the police department will have the opportunity to complete a separate survey.
