So what changed in Schaumburg that caused Mayor Larson to reverse his position 180 degrees? Two words. Political Pressure.

If the Village board of Schaumburg had their priorities straight and focused on core services instead of corporate welfare they wouldn’t be facing the budget problems they are seing now and wouldn’t be forced to cut officer positions.

One move, good or bad, does not make or break a Police Chief. It’s an accumulation of actions and policy decisions over time that determine the success of an administration.
