City of Monroe issued the following announcement on Oct 15.
At their October 14th Special Meeting, Monroe City Council accepted the recommendation of City Manager Vincent Pastue to appoint Chad J. Tolstedt to the position of Director of Public Safety. Tolstedt will oversee Public Safety Operations for both the Police and Fire Operations.
The Public Safety Director position was created following a reorganization plan adopted by the City Council in July 2021 to address forthcoming budget challenges resulting from the recent DTE power plant tax devaluation settlement.
