LANGLEY - Langley Police Chief Bob Herzberg submitted a letter of resignation today.

Herzberg said the effective date is March 2.

Langley's top cop has been working for the city for 32 years. His future with the city has been unclear in recent weeks, however. At a city council meeting earlier this month, City Councilman Robert Gilman floated the suggestion that Herzberg could retire early as the city works to solve its budget problems.

The Langley City Council is expected to vote on a 2010 budget tonight that will eliminate most of the salary of the police chief position.
