He faced scrutiny in Seattle for the department's tactics during civil unrest.
Mayor Paul Schell chose him as Seattle's new police chief in July 2001.
Kerlikowske oversaw the demonstrations marking the second anniversary of the controversial WTO conference in Seattle which had caused his predecessor, Norm Stamper, to resign.
Although the event was peaceful throughout the day, 140 were arrested after police issued orders to disperse in the evening.
Some of those arrested were prominent labor leaders attempting to move the event to the Labor Temple and others who were caught in the arrest zone while leaving work.
Some charges were later dismissed.
Kerlikowske faced criticism over the department's slow response to the 2001 Seattle Mardi Gras Riots that left one man dead and 70 people with injuries.
During the incident, he ordered the police at the scene not to intervene, instead maintaining a perimeter around the violence.
The City of Seattle acknowledged police strategy presented a public safety threat, and settled with the murder victim's family for just under $2 million.
The next month, The Seattle Police Officers' Guild voted no confidence in the chief, citing both the Mardi Gras riot and his public reprimand of an officer for being rude to a group of alleged jaywalkers.
The police department was later criticized by the American Civil Liberties Union for the handling of protests against the Iraq War and previous demonstrations in a 2003 letter to the mayor and Kerlikowske.
In 2003, a ballot measure passed in Seattle that directs the police department to consider marijuana possession (for adult personal use) the City's lowest law enforcement priority.
Kerlikowske opposed the ballot initiative, but said such arrests were already a low priority.
