The Brandon Police Board is inviting residents to come meet the Wheat City’s new police chief this Friday, but the event is by invitation only.
New Brandon Police Service Chief Tyler Bates will be present from 4 to 6 p.m. in the foyer of Brandon City Hall, according to a release sent out Tuesday.
But on Wednesday, city communications officer Merrilea Metcalf clarified that the event is only open to invited stakeholders in the community. The Sun was not aware of the nature of the event and incomplete information appeared in Wednesday’s newspaper.
Metcalf said a public open house will be held later this fall to introduce Chief Bates once he gets settled. Bates is expected to start in his new role on Tuesday, Oct. 15.
