Mayor Proposes Charter Amendment Centralizing Civil Service
A draft amendment pushed by Mayor Black seeks to create a five member civil service commission to appoint city workers with council confirmation. The measure would set terms of office, require rules for conduct, and specify classification of employees, including heads of departments and police and fire chiefs, while limiting political control and preserving merit-based appointments.
