I don’t know.
I will wait to see if the employees or the civil service commission have anything to say about this. Absent their criticism or yours, I will think this is ok. The city certainly is not telling us what this would do.
We deserve better

I am a member of the Civil Service Commission and the changes to the Civil Service portion of the Charter are mainly clean up and word changes. The changes were vetted with the employee committee (3 meetings) and one of the hearing officers, Bill Ellis, participated in the meetings and the changes that have been made. There is smoking in any of these changes.
