The City of Sedan continues its search for a new Police Chief.

 

At this week's City Council meeting, council members agreed to set a date to interview a candidate for the position as they continue to receive and review applications. The City has been in search of a new police chief since Kirk Richardson announced his retirement in late February. City Clerk Lana Robinson says she would like the City to present Richardson with a gift for his retirement.

 

The Council approved the gift along with guidelines for future retiring officers. In other business, Council members were asked to approve repairs to the City's bulk water station. Robinson says a valve on the station is broken.

 

The Council approved the expenditure of $3,525 to Vernon Manufacturing of Gypsum, Kansas, for the repairs. No time line was given as to when the station will be back in full working order.
