Hamilton s police service needs to be innovative and make sure it s justifying every dollar that s spent on it.
That was the message on Friday from Frank Bergen who, in a short ceremony, became the city s new chief of police.
Bergen, who s been Hamilton s deputy chief since 2018, acknowledged that there s increased budget scrutiny on the Hamilton Police Service (HPS), and it needs to embrace partnerships to be more community focused. We can create a model that will place communities at its core, said Bergen during a scaled-down ceremony attended by his wife and Mayor Fred Eisenberger. Eisenberger also chairs the police services board.
