Menifee, CA – The City of Menifee invites the public to attend a community workshop where the City will gather input from the community on Menifee’s current Police Chief recruitment. The community workshop will be held on January 16th at 9:00am at Menifee City Hall located at 29714 Haun Road Menifee, CA 92586.
The input of community members gathered at this workshop will be considered as the City begins the recruitment of the first Menifee Police Chief. On November 7, 2018, the City Council unanimously approved a resolution to authorize the City Manager to take initial steps to initiate the formation of the Menifee Police Department and gave staff direction to engage in efforts necessary to begin the process of forming Menifee’s own Police Department.
The initial steps include immediate recruitment and hiring of a Police Chief, development of a budget for Menifee Police Department to be approved by City Council, address facility, process, procedures, and contractual needs as determined by the City Manager and the future Police Chief.
For additional information on the community workshop or Menifee Police Chief Recruitment, please contact the Dave Brown, Interim Director of Public Safety, at (951) 672-6777 or dbrown@cityofmenifee.us.
