Background checks are a common practice for municipalities, especially for those in positions of trust.

The City of Loveland is no exception. It is City policy to perform background checks for those seeking employment with the City.

Troy Krenning knew of the policy when he ran for office, yet he refused to submit to a background check.

Mr. Krenning is a former law enforcement officer and surely understands the importance of background checks.

Not only did he refuse the procedure, but he aggressively berated the city attorney and others for challenging him.
