If Bass uses a new 'community engagement' report as her guide, the next chief will devote a significant amount of time working to improve the morale of LAPD officers.
Good morning, and welcome to L.A. on the Record — our City Hall newsletter. It’s David Zahniser, helping you take stock of the past week in city and county government, with some help from my colleague Rebecca Ellis. Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass has kept her search for a new police chief largely hush-hush, refusing to identify the finalists and even declining to say when the interviews were taking place.
'The perception of the city as unsafe and the negative effect that homeless encampments have on communities are concerning to business leaders, especially in light of the upcoming major events in Los Angeles,' the report said, referring to the 2026 World Cup and the 2028 Olympics. The next chief will almost certainly be the most important hire of Bass' first term. She plans to make her decision by Sept. 30.
