Acting Chairman discussed the amended memo from Captain
Byerly dated December 21, 1989, requesting a hearing.
City Attorney stated for the record that the original memo
from Capt Byerly was appealing disciplinary action. The
amendment to Captain Byerly's original memo changes the
appeal to a complaint against a disciplinary action. Under
that procedure the Civil Service Secretary is to review the
letter and make a recommendation to the Commission. Since
there is a changeover of Secretaries and the letter was
received on 21 December, suggestion from City Attorney was
that this be handled as an item at the next Civil Service
Commission meeting.
Acting Chairman motioned that the hearing be scheduled for
the next Civil Service meeting on January 18, 1990. The
motion was seconded and carried.
Acting Chairman motioned to accept into record the
resignation letter from the Acting Secretary, Chief
Examiner, Jan Banister. The motion was seconded and
carried.
Acting Chairman thanked Jan for all the long hours of hard
and well done work that she provided during the interim
situation.
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at
12: 18.
The next regular meeting is scheduled for January 18, 1990 at
12 :0o in the Council Chambers.
