Hadsell IS police chief
I had a chance to talk to Baldwin Park Chief Executive Officer Vijay Singhal earlier, and he informed me Lili Hadsell was appointed police chief last night.
Because she is already with the department, it works like a promotion so no contracts needed for approval. A new agreement will be drafted, but that's it, she's the big cheese now.
Officials say she'll be making $155,00 a year - $15,000 more than former Police Chief Edward Lopez did.
Sierra Madre Police Chief Marilyn Diaz - who worked with Hadsell when they were both at the Pasadena Police Dept - told me Hadsell is the second female chief of police in the SGV, and the third in LA County.
Diaz was first in the SGV and county, and Inglewood Police Chief Jacqueline Seabrooks was the second in the county.
Talk about girl power.

I just noticed the very large amount of public notices that cities put in the San Gabriel Valley Tribune and had a few questions? 1)How much are the cities charged for this? 2)Has this "contract" been won in a bid process? 3) Most importantly has the tribune ever raised or lowered the fee for this in the past few years?

My question is, What happened to Captain Taylor? Why was he passed over? did he decide to step out the race, or is there other things in the mist? I know for sure that the POA wants Taylor as Chief. Well, lets see how things play out know. Im glad a BP person got it, congratulations to Chief Hadsell. I know at work, its gonna be a big change.
