INCOMING ALBUQUERQUE MAYOR TIM KELLER IS IN THE MARKET FOR A NEW POLICE CHIEF … AND THE ALBUQUERQUE JOURNAL REPORTS HE’S LOOKING TO HIRE SOMEONE FAMILIAR WITH APD BUT DOESN’T WORK THERE. KELLER TELLS THE JOURNAL HE AND HIS TRANSITION TEAM ARE INTERVIEWING CANDIDATES TO BE INTERIM POLICE CHIEF AND HE HOPES TO BE ABLE TO NAME THAT PERSON NEXT WEEK.
CURRENT POLICE CHIEF GORDEN EDEN SAYS HE’LL RESIGN AT THE END OF THIS MONTH. THE RUNOFF ELECTION IS GIVING KELLER LESS TIME TO PUT TOGETHER HIS ADMINISTRATION.
