The next English-speaking forum is Monday at the Beverly Arts Center.
The commission has until July 14 to name three candidates to hand over to Mayor Brandon Johnson, who will then nominate one candidate to the City Council for approval.
Currently, retired officer Fred Waller is serving as interim superintendent until a permanent replacement is found.
The application window closed last week with 52 resumes.
