As reported last night in a comment to our blog by John Thomas, Northfield Police Captain Mark Taylor was named our new police chief by approval of the City Council. (Right photo courtesy of Scott Davis, Stone Cottage Photo, at the 3/27 forum at the Grand.)
It’s not quite formalized yet, however. See the Northfield News story for details.
Mark has agreed to appear on our radio show/podcast this week, which we’re recording today at 2 PM.
If you have questions that you’d like us to consider asking Mark, attach a comment here before 1:30 PM today (Tues).
10:15 PM update: The podcast is now available. And as you’ll hear, his appointment was made official today, as any further testing was waived.
