Riverside is looking for a new police chief, and it wants the public’s help in making its choice.

Public meeting are scheduled to be held:

  • Sept. 25 at Reid Park, Springbrook Banquet Room,1011 Orange St.;

Each meeting will be held from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.

During those sessions, residents will be able to discuss safety issues, what attributes the new chief should have and how that person should interact with the community, according to a statement on the city’s website.
