It’s Scott Cunningham:
Cunningham, 51, has 28 years of police experience, including 24 with the Tampa Police Department. He retired there in 2004 as the assistant chief of operations, a job that had him overseeing 750 sworn officers.
He was Cary’s chief for about 2 1/2 years, resigning in December. He said that Cary wasn’t a good fit for him and that he left on friendly terms.
Garrity said that there were no concerns about Cunningham’s tenure there.
“I got real strong recommendations from Cary, and I’m comfortable that he would be a good fit with me and the city council,” he said.
Cunningham said he sees Winston-Salem as the place to end his career.
“I do not want to be a gypsy chief,” he said.
