Centralina Council of Governments is proud to assist the City of Statesville with the recruitment of the City’s next Chief of Police.  As we develop materials and prepare responses to candidate questions, we are asking similar questions of city leaders, its police staff and the community as to the needs of the city and its residents from its next Chief of Police.  The questions below will help us better understand your view of the City’s needs, as well as your own hopes, wishes and expectations of your next Chief of Police.  There’s no guarantee the final candidate will meet all of these, but this feedback helps us know which particular traits, interests and experience of candidates fit best with the City of Statesville and will help us prepare candidates as they examine their own fit for the City and position.
