<br />Item No: WS-7 <br />Meeting Date: July 7, 2003 <br />Type of Business: Worksession <br />City of Mounds View Staff Report <br />To: Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />From: James Ericson, Interim City Administrator <br />Item Title/Subject: Police Civil Service Commission Discussion <br /> <br />Introduction: <br /> <br />At the worksession on June 2, 2003, the Council requested some information on whether <br />other cities have police civil service commissions and if so, have they experienced any <br />problems. <br /> <br />Discussion: <br /> <br />Chief Sommer polled neighboring communities and any other communities who chose to <br />respond the following questions: <br /> <br />1. Does your police department operate under the direction of a civil service commission? <br /> <br />2. If yes, have you encountered any obstacles applying the requirements of M.S. 419? <br /> <br />3. If no, does your department utilize any other type of police commission? <br /> <br />The results of Chief Sommer’s survey are attached to this report. It should be noted that some <br />of the City’s that do have a civil service commission do not strictly follow the requirements of <br />Chapter 419. <br /> <br />You may want to bring the report from the June 2nd worksession (Item 3) which included the <br />memos and reports from the City Attorney regarding the Police Civil Service Commission. <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br /> <br />Discuss and direct staff accordingly. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />_____________________________________ <br />James Ericson <br />Interim City Clerk/Administrator <br /> <br />Attachments: <br />1.
