CITY MANAGER’S UPDATE:
City Manager Jim Vanderpool announced that the Anaheim Public Libraries expanded hours begin July
1st. Each region (East, West, and Central) will now have seven days of service. For more information
regarding the new hours at Central Library, East Anaheim Library, and Haskett Library please visit the
City of Anaheim Public Library webpage. He provided an update regarding the Chief of Police
recruitment process and noted that the City secured the professional services of Bob Murray and
Associates to conduct a national executive search. The recruitment was open for five weeks, ads were
placed in 11 national law enforcement professional organizations and outlets, and a public awareness
campaign was coordinated by the City’s Public Information Officer. Meetings and participation options
were advertised on social media, the web, and Channel 3. The City also encouraged each Council
Member, Commissioner, and Board Member to get the information out on their social media outlets.
Community Services shared the recruitment with non-profits, religious organizations, and school districts.
The City conducted six community meetings Citywide. The executive recruiter met with Board Members
as well as the Anaheim Police Association (APA), Anaheim Police Management Association (APMA),
and the Anaheim Management Employees Association (AMEA). The recruiter also conducted open
house and open door hours at the Police Department for personnel to drop in and provide input on the
process. In addition, the executive recruiter met with the Mayor and each Member of the City Council for
one-on-one input on their expectations for our next Chief of Police. City Manager Vanderpool noted that
he has been thoroughly briefed by the recruiter on all interactions with the public, labor groups, and
elected officials. Although there was a robust pool of applicants, a smaller highly qualified group will be
interviewed on June 28th. There will be four professional panels made up of law enforcement executives
and law enforcement professionals. There will be a peer department head panel, a labor panel
comprised of APA, APMA, an AMEA, and community panel with representatives from education, non-
profits, health care, business, and a member from the Police Review Board. City Manager Vanderpool
will then meet which each panel and be briefed on their input from the finalist. Based on input, he will
interview a select group of finalists on Thursday, June 29th. The top candidate will move forward with the
pre-employment process including a background and reference check. Once completed, City Manager
Vanderpool will present his appointment to the City Council for ratification and contract approval 30-45
days from today.
