During the tenure of West Bloomfield's last police chief, Detroit saw eight different men and women come and go as Chief. You work for the Mayor in Detroit and if he doesn't like you, you are gone.
Next week the Township Board is interviewing two candidates (I do not know who they are) for the West Bloomfield position. Appointments of Department Heads are made by the full Board.
Whomever this board chooses, they need to get it in writing that he serves at the pleasure of the Board and can be dismissed, or demoted back to whatever position he held internally before the promotion, without cause, at any time. No claims of Americans with Disabilities, Age Discrimination in Employment, or anything else. Get it in writing. If the candidate doesn't sign, don't choose him.
This last situation was a complete fiasco. I, along with other residents, am upset that we were 'held up' for more money. Let's make sure that it doesn't happen again.
