Pomona police chief appointment on agenda

After a seven-week break, the Pomona City Council will meet Monday to deal with an assortment of issues, including the matter of appointing a new police chief.

The council will have a special meeting behind closed doors to discuss a public employee appointment involving the chief.

The meeting is at 5 p.m.

Earlier this summer, City Manager Linda Lowry proposed appointing Acting Police Chief David Keetle to serve as the department's new police chief.

Keetle has been serving as acting chief since former Chief Joe Romero retired in December.
