At the January 5, 2022 Police Civil Service Commission meeting, staff presented proposed changes to Police Civil Service Rule No. 9, which governs the process for police candidates to appeal their final examination ratings. In particular, staff proposed amendments that would clarify the process for appeals of psychological examination results to better align with current practice. Following discussion, the Commission provided feedback concerning additional amendments to Rule 9 and requested a continuance of the review/discussion to a future date. Current Proposed Amendments: More recent hiring activities have prompted the Human Resources Department to consider the efficiency and applicability of current rules governing the examination and appeal processes. Specifically, staff conducted a review of Rule 9, "Review of Civil Service Ratings and Examination Procedures," and the timelines associated with defined pre -employment reviews. In assessing Rule 9, additional consideration was provided to Rule 8, "Inspection of Test: Appeal Notice of Examination," which has date sensitive elements that run in parallel with Rule 9. As such, staff has identified more comprehensive potential changes to Rules 8 and 9 that clarify the pre- employment rights of appeal and review (distinguishable from the disciplinary appeal process for current employees, contained in Rule 15.)
