bringing Charter amendments, as well as
changes to the Civil Service regulations in the
near future for the Commissioner's review.
Mr. Fenimore motioned that the
Commissioners are concerned about Officers
not responding to subpoenas to report to Civil
Service Hearings. Also, the Commission was
concerned with a memo provided to them from
Assistant Police Chief Richard Kitchen, relating
to his explanation as to why employees may
have failed to report to a previous Civil Service
Hearing. The commission would like the Chief
to inquire into the reasons why Officer Larry
Irving and Sergeant Joe Walley did not report
to the prior Civil Service Hearing, and be
provided with a written report. The commission
would also like a written response from both
Officer Irving and Sergeant Walley.
