Seal Beach Police news: services study and promotions

Police Services Study update

The Matrix Consulting Group is still developing the Police Services Study for Seal Beach. “We are still working with the consultant on this project and are making good progress. I do not have an estimated date of completion,” said Seal Beach Police Sgt. Michael Henderson, the department’s public information officer. The City Council commissioned the study in April for an estimated maximum of $40,000.

 

The council is expected to consider hiring three more officers at an upcoming meeting.
