Approval and certification of the four background investigations will allow the Police Department to
move forward in making job offers to two candidates to fill the two existing vacancies within the
Police Department. These job offers are contingent upon the two candidates passing the
psychological exam as well as the pre-employment physical/physical agility exams.
Background
With the certification of the eligibility list from this recruitment process in June, the City moved forward
in backgrounding the top five candidates in order to hire two candidates for the existing vacancies.
Normally, the City would just background the top four candidates. However, with the unfavorable
background of Candidate E, in accordance with the Civil Service Rules and Regulations, the City was
required to reach down and background one more candidate, for a total of five, in order to be able to
certify four favorable background summaries from which two candidates would be hired.
