The Honolulu Police Commission is seeking public input for the next chief of police. The commission is asking for input from individuals and community-based organizations representing communities disproportionately impacted by police mistreatment.
Organizations can formally present their material at a Commission meeting. Individuals may also provide input and written testimony.
The Commission is asking presenters and testifiers to focus on the following three questions when giving their input:
- What are the skills and capabilities that the Commission should be looking for from the new Chief of Police?
- What are some questions you would like candidates for the Chief of Police to answer?
- What does your organization think that the new Chief's priorities should be when they take over the job?
The most recent Chief, Susan Ballard retired in May of this year.
