How do I...

City Departments

“With best wishes for a happy retirement (and some envy), I must say it has been an honor to work with Chief John Diaz during a challenging time for the Seattle Police Department and the City as a whole. He has helped prepare SPD for the reform effort now under way, and richly deserves some R&R before pursuing the next chapter in his life. I hope he will remain involved in police reform efforts throughout the country. I look forward to working with Interim Chief Jim Pugel to continue to advance these critical reforms and to ensure that public safety remains our first priority for Seattle.”
