Antioch Police Oversight Commission member resigns
Briefly

Treva Hadden submitted an immediate resignation from the Antioch Police Oversight Commission effective Aug. 19, citing limitations that prevented full contribution. The resignation followed a 6-0 commission vote on Aug. 18 recommending removal after Hadden missed more than three meetings in the past 12 months without an excuse. Hadden, an ethics investigator with the city of Oakland, said she had hoped to make meaningful contributions using her law enforcement background. Hadden wrote that limitations placed by the chair prevented her from applying her knowledge, skills and expertise, so she chose to step aside. She remains supportive of the commission's mission and commitment to transparency and accountability. Appointed in February 2024 to a three-year term, Hadden did not elaborate on the alleged limitations.
ANTIOCH Treva Hadden, a member of the Antioch Police Oversight Commission, submitted her immediate resignation, citing limitations that prevented her from fully contributing to the body's mission. Recommended for removal by her fellow commissioners due to unexcused absences, Hadden emailed her resignation letter, dated Aug. 17, to the City Clerk's office on Aug. 19. The resignation follows a commission vote of 6-0 on Aug. 18 to remove Hadden for having missed more than three meetings within the past 12 months without an excuse.
Unfortunately, the limitations placed on me by the Chair have prevented me from fully applying my knowledge, skills, and expertise in ways that would benefit both the Commission and the community we serve, said Hadden in the email. As a result, I do not feel I am able to contribute at the level I had intended, and I believe it is best for me to step aside.
