The City of Charlotte is conducting a nationwide search for a Chief of Police and would like your input.

Take the Chief of Police Recruitment Community Input Survey to share what qualities, priorities and experience you believe are most important for this critical role.

Charlotte, the 14th largest city in the U.S. and one of its fastest-growing, is home to over 900,000 residents. As our city grows, ensuring public safety is more important than ever. CMPD, currently the largest police department between Washington, D.C., and Atlanta, has reported a 25% drop in violent crime and an 8% reduction in overall crime this year. Your feedback can help build on this progress.

The survey closes on Friday, September 5.
