City Clerk, City of Bunnell
In accordance with the City Charter, City Manager Alvin B. Jackson Jr. will be requesting approval of the appointment of David Brannon II to the position of Bunnell police chief at the Feb. 28 City Commission meeting.
A panel comprising the city manager, city finance director and Chief David Williams from the Flagler County Sheriff Office interviewed applicants this month. Following the interviews, Jackson determined David Brannon II would provide the best knowledge, skills and fit for the city.
Brannon has degrees from Warner University and the University of Louisville. He has 26 years of service with the Volusia County Sheriff Office, some of those years being the command for District 4 which included the city of Deltona and provided experience very similar to that of a police chief for a city. He has overseen a department of 80 deputy sheriffs, been involved in contract management and supports the need for community engagement.
“Chief Brannon’s passion for law enforcement and being a motivating, collaborative and servant leader were clear throughout the process," Jackson said. "He is the type of leader needed for a Police Department on the verge of making several positive, forward-looking changes in the next several years.”
If confirmed, Brannon will also be sworn in that night and be ready to assume his duties the following day. The Bunnell City Commission meets in the Chambers of the Government Services Building located at 1769 E. Moody Blvd., Bunnell, FL 32110 at 7 p.m.
