• AGENDA Item l. Consider Job Descriptions for Police Officer III -
Detective and Corporal -
The Commission asked Chief Williams and Sergeant McKinney
to present this item and explain the ways the department
would benefit from the corporal classification.
They stated that by having a corporal position, police
officers could be promoted to a 1eve1 equal to detective
and yet not be in the detective division. Corporals
would be only in the partol division. Also, by having
a corporal for each patrol shift, there will be authorized
supervision at all times for each shift. Lateral transfers
can be made between the detectives and corporals, all of
which are positive incentive characteristics.
The position of Police Officer III was allocated in last
year's budget, however, no ~ob description was written.
During the past year this title has applied to detectives
only, therefore, the Commission accepts the concept of
allowing the title to cover both the detectives and the
corporals.
Vice Chairman Bob Henderson made a motion to approve the
_ title of Police Officer III, Class Code 111 for Detective;
111-A for Corporal; to include four penple as Corporals
and to recommend a salary for Corporals equal to the
present salary of Detectives; that proper testing be set up
