Two comment authors have reported that the Chicago Police Department has announced three vacancies available for officers who wish to transfer into our district.
The district lost 8 officers during the most recent round of transfers and promotions as more of its officers left the district than transferred in.
Other than the three vacancies here, there are “not many openings in nice districts. Odds are no one will bid out,” one comment notes.
In December’s transfers, only two of our officers chose to go work in “not nice” districts.
CWB will update you when the new transfer activity is finalized.
