Dallas Police Chief U. Reneé Hall handed in her resignation in early September after being criticized by some members of the City Council for the handling of anti-police brutality protests in the wake of George Floyd's killing.
City Manager T.C. Broadnax accepted Hall's resignation after convincing her not to leave in November and instead stay in her position until the end of 2020.
Hall has been Dallas Police Chief since September of 2017.
