Interviews Today for Police Chief Candidates
- Share via
A panel will interview seven candidates for police chief today in the city’s ongoing effort to fill the spot vacated by Stan Knee last year.
Knee left Garden Grove, a city of about 156,000, to become police chief in Austin, Texas.
City Manager George Tindall said an original pool of about 25 candidates has been narrowed to the seven scheduled for interviews.
Tindall said the number of candidates for the post will be whittled to two or three, and additional interviews will follow in the final selection process.
City officials declined to release the names of the seven candidates but did say that some are from other parts of Orange County.
