The announcement comes two months after former Police Chief Louis H. Fetherolf resigned from the post. Controversy over Fetherolf's leadership and management along with allegations of sexual harassment culminated in an independent audit and investigation of Fetherolf and the police department. Although the audit cleared Fetherolf of any misconduct, the City Council asked for his resignation.Finlayson will be sworn in March 19.
