EDITOR'S NOTE: Just as we predicted there is now a fifth Community Meeting, this one scheduled for September 17 at the Kedren Center (see list below).
LA Community Policing will carefully follow the process of selecting a new LAPD Chief, just as we did in 2002 when William Bratton was chosen. To see how we covered things back then simply click here: Choosing A Chief - 2002 . Below you'll find the just released schedule of community meetings, four this time, designed to help the Police Commission determine what it is the public wishes to see in it's next Chief of Police.

“Public input is critical in this process,” stated Police Commission President John Mack. “The next Chief of Police will serve all of the diverse communities of Los Angeles, and it is extremely important that we hear from those communities and know what is important to them.”
There will be two members of the LA Police Commission at each of these meetings, which will be facilitated by Executive Director, Richard Tefank.
