Warren Civil Service Commission to have police chief test in August

WARREN — The Warren Civil Service Commission will set a date sometime in early August for qualified police department employees to take the test to be the city’s next police chief.

It is too soon, however, to know which candidates will take that test, said Atty. James Fredericka, a commission member.

The three-member commission met today to establish procedures to be followed for the exam and formally appoint Capt. Tim Bowers as acting chief.

Before the test can be given, the city will post a notice for 10 days offering the two eligible police captains — Bowers and Tim Roberts — the opportunity to express an interest in the job.
