The city will have a fire chief and police chief for the first time in 37 years. Or at least it will by the end of the year. The City Council on Tuesday easily passed to a second reading an ordinance change that switches "director" to "chief" as department heads as the first step in pulling down the public safety governance structure established in 1981. It also passed after much more discussion a change in the compensation plan raising the salary for the police chief. The adoption was prompted by the announced retirement of Police Director Michael Cozzaglio, who has been in his post for 15 years. However, the changes have been discussed off and on after the past administration abandoned attempts to fill the commissioner of public safety post six years ago. The current administration says it's time to acknowledge that the spot at the top of the public safety structure is empty and to begin rewriting the enacting ordinance. In the meantime, trying to find someone to replace a "police director" comes with its own issues.
