LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Louisville's mayor has nominated the city's current inspector general, Ed Harness, for a second four-year term.

The Office of the Inspector General is an independent agency that investigates complaints against the Louisville Metro Police Department (LMPD), and reviews both the practices and policies of the department.

“We’ve made encouraging progress improving public safety and in our reform efforts, but there’s still so much work ahead of us," Mayor Craig Greenberg said. "We’re going to keep improving and reforming."

Harness has served in the role since 2021, establishing the role after the office was created in 2020. It has become a key office for the community since the Department of Justice dropped Louisville's consent decree.
