Police Commission

The City of Neenah is 1 of approximately 150 Wisconsin communities required by state statute to form a Police Commission.

The Neenah Police Commission is comprised of five volunteer commissioners who are appointed to a five-year term by the mayor. The mayor maintains operational oversight of the police department, while the police commission independently provides direct oversight of the hiring process.

Responsibilities of a Wisconsin Police Commission:

• Hires the chief of police
• Conducts new hire interviews and creates a candidate eligibility list for the chief to fill vacant positions
• Approves all promotions and appointments made by the chief of police
• Establishes a hearing when formal charges are filed against the chief or any sworn police officer and issues a determination
• Hears disciplinary appeals filed by a police officer for action initiated by the chief of police
