(KAIR)--Horton City Commissioners will be in special session Wednesday, with the selection of a new Chief of Police for the Brown County community the focus of the meeting.
According to the agenda, the bulk of the session will be held behind closed doors, in executive session, as Commissioners are set to interview candidates for the position.
The meeting will begin at 5:15 at Horton City Hall.
The need to fill the role of Police Chief follows a 3-1 vote of the Commission on August 21 to accept the resignation of then Police Chief Jonathan Boller III. His last day on the job was August 25.
Boller submitted his letter of resignation on August 11th, with the unofficial meeting minutes saying he gave a statement about his time with the city, his concerns with micro-management, and questioning of his department's integrity by certain commission members which led to his decision to resign.
Boller became Chief of Police in January 2021.
Assistant Police Chief Cody Spire is overseeing the department until a new Chief of Police is hired.
