Police Commission
Meetings: meets as needed
Police Commissioners were created over a century ago by the Wisconsin Legislature who recognized the important role police officers and fire fighters play in assuring public safety in Wisconsin. The goal of the legislature was to insulate police officers and fire fighters from partisan politics by the creation of an independent body that would be responsible for their selection and removal. The Richland Center Police Commission consists of five (5) citizen members who are appointed by the mayor and confirmed by the Common Council. Each Commissioner serves a five (5) year term of office.
