Chandler Chief’s Residency Row

Chandler’s top cop, Police Chief Bryan Chapman, is facing scrutiny over his residency — he’s leasing a Chandler home but still lives in Ahwatukee, sparking rumors his son may be using the Chandler spot. The city says the lease counts, but the controversy reignited after a city council committee formed to review charter rules, with new proposals suggesting GPS tracking could prove his commute. A pending charter amendment, set for November’s vote, would relax residency rules for department heads like Chapman — reducing the required time from six to twelve months, and exempting them entirely — while tightening requirements for others. Residents can weigh in on the changes via the city’s website. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
