What Wichita City Council members, mayor are looking for in next police chief

Here are the qualities, background and priorities the Wichita City Council members who answered a five-question survey from The Wichita Eagle say the city’s new police chief should have. The city has already solicited proposals from consulting firm, paving the way for a national search to begin after current chief Gordon Ramsay leaves on March 1. What background and qualities do you think Wichita’s next police chief should have? Obviously, we’re looking for someone who has really the dedication and the professional experience to take on such a key a role. And in addition to a stellar resume of education and professional experience, really it’s going to be important to find someone who has that community policing mentality and also a track record of building bridges within the community that go both ways.
