Richard Ried in the council chambers. In attendance: Commissioners • Donald Whitener and Joseph Street; Chief Skewes, Assistant City Attorney Heavey and Administrative Assistant Webby. Also present: William P. Fite, attorney, and client, William Nirk, and Mrs. Nirk. Commissioner Street moved, Commissioner Whitener seconded, to approve the minutes of the March 17, 1983 meeting. Motion carried. Because of the attorneys' schedules, rather than begin with the order of the agenda, the Nirk matter was taken up first. Assistant City Attorney Heavey requested the Commission set the Nirk matter for a hearing date. She said the original decision of the trial court was reversed and remanded by the Court of Appeals and that order of the trial court has been appealed. She added that the order of the trial court is valid and the Commission has been ordered to hold the hearing as soon as possible. The problem of continuing, Ms. Heavey stated, is that some witnesses have already left the City, some may not be available in the future and testimony could be lost forever. Mr. Fite noted that the original ruling was reversed for failure to swear in the witnesses. He said the matter was presented to Superior Court, went on appeal , ruling was reversed and remanded to Superior Court to proceed. He said the Court of Appeals did not address some of the issues and did not clarify just what was to be done. He felt it wasn't a valid hearing, talking about five years later. Mr. Fite further stated that the Superior Court's decision is on appeal and setting a hearing date is premature at this time. Ms. Heavey responded that the original Superior Court ruling upheld the Civil Service Commission. The appellate court latched on to not swearing • in the witnesses and remanded it back to Superior Court. They reversed it on a limited issue. She said her opinion is that the Commission has no choice in the matter, that the Superior Court has ordered a hearing. Chairman asked if there has been a precedent set of other cases being remanded back to the Commission or hearing body and a pending appeal prevented the body from having a hearing? Ms. Heavey responded that there are a lot of cases where the Commission has been overturned and have gone back for another hearing. Chairman noted for Mr. Fite that the King County Supeior Court ordered a rehearing in October 1975 and Mr. Fite responded that that decision is on appeal . It was agreed to allow four weeks to prepare for the hearing: The hearing was scheduled for 2:00 p.m. on Tuesday, May 24, 1983, in the council chambers. Mr. Street disqualified himself from the hearing or anything to do with the case because of his involvement during his previous position with the city. Mr. Whitener moved, Mr. Ried seconded,.. to hold the hearing on May 24th as set forth. Motion carried.
