A “Walk-In” is planned today at the South Haven City Council meeting as a group of citizens is planning to show their support for the person they want to see as police chief.
Posting in community groups on social media, the group is advertising “A City Hall Walk-In” to show support for Sergeant Patrick Carlotto.
Organizers say they’re intending to show “South Haven’s City Council, Mayor Annie Brown, and City Manager Kate Hosier, that enough is enough!” They say they’re planning a peaceful walk-in to Monday night’s meeting to show support for Carlotto being hired as Police Chief.
Organizers added, “With the recent failure of hires, which have embarrassed our beautiful city, we need to show up and make our voices heard once and for all.”
Group members say they plan to speak during the public comment and are encouraging others to do so.
At last check, there were no agenda items directly related to the ongoing search for a police chief, though we’re told it’s likely to take up a good portion of the meeting.
