DISCUSSION
The Commission previously certified the Police Officer - Recruit (Open/Promotional), Police Officer Trainee (Open/Promotional), and Police Officer - Academy Graduate (Open/Promotional) eligibility lists. A list of candidates who were not selected for appointment is now being shared with the Commission in closed session. Because these candidates were not selected and the hiring department needs a list of candidates who are still viable for hiring, staff is asking the Commission to approve removing those unselected candidates from the Police Officer - Recruit (Open/Promotional), Police Officer Trainee (Open/Promotional), and Police Officer - Academy Graduate (Open/Promotional) eligibility lists.
AUTHORITY
Rule VI, Section 12(d) of the Civil Service Rules and Regulations for Miscellaneous Employees and Rule V, Section 4(a)(6) of the Civil Service Rules for Police and Fire Employees allows the Commission to remove candidates from the eligible list for failure to complete and/or successfully pass a background investigation.
Rule VI, Section 12(d)(5) of the Civil Service Rules and Regulations for Miscellaneous Employees and Rule V, Section 11(d)(4) of the Civil Service Rules and Regulations for Police and Fire Employees allows the Commission to remove candidates from the eligible list when the records of the Personnel Officer show the candidate has requested in writing that his/her name be removed.
