I'm pretty sure I don't like the idea of a police department controllable by local gov't. If you were at a town meeting or similar, and were making a stink, officials could unlawfully order officers to remove you, and the officers wouldn't be able to practically (due to risk of their jobs) refuse. I feel the people we are supposed to lobby, protest, convince and discredit should not be the ones controlling law enforcement.
