Since Chief Knutsen will be retiring in approximately six months, we should begin discussion on the replacement
process for hiring a new chief. Council may want to consider using Jim Brimeyer again and going with a similar
process used in hiring Community Developrnent Director Rogness. For the police chief position, I recommend
the following if Brimeyer's services are used:
• Brimeyer will interview city council, administration, department heads and police department employees.
• Brimeyer will prepare a position profile based on information received from his contact with council and
staff, the job description and priorities for the position.
• Candidates will be produced from job announcements and recruitment.
• Brimeyer will screen candidates and investigate backgrounds.
• Brimeyer will provide finalists.
• Reception for finalists and tour of city
• Interviews
