All I can do is speak of my experience with Steve Conrad. I believe he will do things his way, not the old way, based on what he thinks is right for Louisville. RCS did give him the opportunity to help lead the newly merged department and I'm sure Conrad is grateful, just as Chiefs in the past allowed him to serve as a Major. He is experienced, knowledgeable and has integrity. Conrad, Sanders and Robison were all good choices. Give Chief Conrad a chance and remain supportive of your community.
