Avon police file mandamus suit over wage and directive dispute
Three Avon Police Department officers T Dreger Richard C Peterson and Paul T Romond filed a mandamus suit in the Ninth District Court of Appeals against the City of Avon and officials over wage and directives. They seek a court order to compel a Civil Service hearing on suspensions for not citing traffic offenders under city ordinance instead of state statutes. The May 12 city order aimed to raise city income from fines and the officers allege the Civil Service Commission has not complied with state law by not holding hearings within 60 days after the appeal.
