School Board Clerk Seeks Police Chief's Spot in Greendale

Eric Schroeder, who currently serves on Muskego-Norway School board as clerk, is going to be interviewed for the Police Chief's job in Greendale.

Schroeder, who is also a police captain in the city of Franklin, said that he became a candidate because he felt his experience in law enforcement and in education was a good fit for the position.

"I have a career in law enforcement, and am hoping to advance in my career as police chief," he said.  "I had also hoped to continue my career here in southeastern Wisconsin and when I saw that the former chief was retiring, I saw this as a great opportunity."

The hired police chief would head up the 56-member police department in Greendale.

Other candidates include Patrick M. Balistrieri, a retired Deputy Chief with the West Allis PD; Gregory A. Habeck, Assistant Chief, UW-Milwaukee PD and a former Assistant Chief, Milwaukee PD; Robert Malasuk, Greendale PD's interim Chief; Randolph Pruss, Director of Security, Southridge Mall and a former Captain with Greendale PD; and Barry M. Weber, Wauwatosa Police Chief.
