Conversations with a Commander

"I grew up on the south side and went to Catholic school. I completed my BA at Western Illinois University and my MBA at Saint Xavier University. I enjoy the outdoors, golfing, and riding my Harley. My vision is to find new and inventive ways to make the city stronger, starting with strengthening community engagement and partnerships here in the 7th district. By developing stronger dialogue and building trust, our residents, businesses, and officers will be able to work together to make this a proud community to reside in, work in, and raise our children."
— Commander Rodney G. Hill
