Referring to the minutes of January 19, 1987, Mr. Street moved to correct the fifth and last paragraphs by deleting "but in executive session the Commission will be interested in the reason for removal ". The last paragraph is corrected to read "at 8:30 a.m. the meeting went into executive session to discuss personnel matters" . Also included in the motion, he moved to approve the minutes as corrected in accor- dance with the City Attorney. Ms. Hinz seconded and motion carried. Battalion Chief Fronsdahl reported that interviews will be conducted with the top nine Firefighter candidates in the process for hiring. He also reported the removal by the Secretary of the following names from the Firefighter Eligibility List: Robert A. Venera, withdrew; Robert G. Vellias, failed medical exam; Andre Yoakum, failed psychological exam. Chief Frederiksen reported having hired four individuals from the entry Police Officer Eligibility List. Captain Byerly reported the following names have been removed from the law enforce- ment eligibility list based on the psychological report: James R. Kinnunen, Victoria M. DeVault, Craig T. Gillio, and Everett A. Denney. Robert E. Holmes was removed because he extended his military commitment. Secretary noted the oral board for entrance police officers is scheduled for February 26 and 27, 1987. Ms. Hinz moved, Mr. Street seconded, to approve the police sergeant eligibility list as follows: Randy D. Bourne Robert M. Holt William H. Mitchell James M. Miller Paul A. Peter Lorna K. Rufener Rodger L. Kellams Motion carried. Printed revisions to Rule VII and VIII were distributed. The memo of January 29, 1987 from Chief Angelo informing of the following promotions, effective February 1 , 1987, to the rank of Lieutenant was read: Daniel L. Hertlein Patrick W. Dale v Robert J. Schneider Terry J. McCartin Ms. Hinz moved, Mr. Street seconded, to accept the memo into the record. Motion carried. Chief Frederiksen addressed the matters of the police calls for service increasing from 10 to 14 percent a year and the Council ' s examining annexation proposals that would cause a need for increased staffing. For those reasons, he advised the Com- mission that the Department is studying a proposal to test only for experienced officers in the next testing process which will require changes to the existing rules. He said the Department is in the process of studying some of the procedures that exist in other cities. After review by the City Attorney' s office, he will have proposals for the next meeting. Chairman asked if there was any feedback from the Union. Chief Frederiksen responded that there has not been, but he will supply that information to them. He stated that it will be to their advantage as well as to the Department because it will provide experienced officers on the street, which is an extreme concern to the Union right now because the training process for a new hire is approximately a year before they are out on the street by themselves. With the City growing so rapidly, experienced officers are needed to benefit both the Union and City. When questioned by Chairman on the Fire Department's view of lateral entry, Battalion Chief Fronsdahl responded that with the J.A.T.C. program already in ser- vice and with the change of Civil Service Commission Rules, lateral entry also could be a matter of fact with the Department. Next meeting date: March 19, 1987, 8 a.m. , Council Chambers. Mr. Street moved, Ms. Hinz seconded, to adjourn the meeting. Meeting adjourned at 8:20 a.m. Respectfully submitted, Amy E: Kato Secretary and Chief Examiner Approved: zT.. Kich� Ried, air'Yf man 219V-lV
