MEMO
Date: Thursday, October 27, 2022
On the agenda for the October 27, 2022, Civil Service Commission meeting, the
Commission will discuss a request from City staff to exhaust the existing list for the
Mechanic Assistant CyRide classification.
The original list was certified during the meeting on April 28, 2022, with three
candidates. One candidate was hired leaving two candidates remaining on the list.
Section 4.2 (Duration of Entry Level Eligibility Lists) of the Civil Service Commission
Policies and Procedures states: “When a list has diminished to three or fewer
candidates, the Commission may declare the list exhausted.” Thus, it is requested
that the Civil Service Commission exhaust the current Civil Service list to allow a
new open recruitment process for an open vacancy.

MEMO
Date: Tuesday, October 26, 2022
On the agenda for the October 27, 2022, Civil Service Commission meeting, the
Commission will discuss a request from City staff to remove candidates’ names
certified to the Civil Service List for the Police Officer classification.
From the list that was certified during the meeting on July 28, 2022, we had 3
candidates who were being newly certified and 3 candidates who were carried
over from previous recruitments. Two candidates have already been hired.
We are asking for the following candidates on this list to be removed from further
consideration due to the following reason:
Daniel Simcox – Candidate withdrew from eligible list due to having another
position.
Luke Gibbs – Candidate withdrew from eligible list due to having another position.
Chad Traver – Candidate withdrew from eligible list due to having another position.
Max Smalley – Candidate failed to obtain qualifying results on the MMPI
examination as applicable for this position.
Staff requests that the Civil Service Commission remove the above name(s) from
the Civil Service list based on the following:
Section 4.5 (Removal of Names from Certified Lists) of the Civil Service commission
Policies and Procedures states: “A person appearing on a certified list for original
appointment shall have their name removed from the list by the Commission
whenever that person has requested that their name be removed, or refuses an
interview or an offer of appointment, or requests not to be considered for an
available vacancy, or fails to respond to a written notice… In addition, an individual
may be removed and decertified if the person is subsequently found unqualified for
any of the following reasons: …#6. The candidate has failed to obtain a qualifying
score on a physical agility, polygraph, or MMPI examination as applicable for the
position.”
The certified list for Police Officer, including all names carried over from prior
unexpired certified lists, would then contain no further candidates.
