The six finalists to become the next Irving police chief will meet for an open house Monday evening. Chief Jeff Spivey retired in February.
Irving used a search firm to recruit applicants and chose six finalists from 30 who applied:
• Samuel Hall, Assistant Chief, Irving Police Department, Irving, TX
• Derick Miller, Chief of Police, Carrollton Police Department, Carrollton, TX
• Jarad Phelps, Deputy Chief of Police, Prince William County Police Department, Woodbridge, VA
• Brian Redburn, Assistant Chief, Irving Police Department, Irving, TX
• Doug Shoemaker, Chief of Police, Grand Junction Police Department, Grand Junction, CO
• Darren Steele, Interim Chief of Police, Irving Police Department, Irving, TX
"Each of these finalists is well-qualified to take on the role of Chief of Police for the City of Irving," City Manager Chris Hillman wrote in a statement. "I am confident that one of them will be able to lead the department as they continue the excellent work that the Irving Police Department does for our community."
The open house runs from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. on the fourth floor of the Irving Convention Center at 500 W. Las Colinas Blvd.
