E <br />CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSION MEETING <br />Page 2 <br />NEW BUSINESS = Cont. <br />There was a lot of discussion on whether to use McCann Associates or if we <br />should use another testing company to give the Fire Chief's Promotional Exam. <br />The Commission felt that McCann's turn around time on scores and appeal process <br />took too long. Chief VanKuren felt that some--oFfMcCann's books which are on <br />the reading list and used bythe candidates to study by are obsolete. If we <br />used McCann's testing company -we would not have anothier Fire Chief assigned <br />to that position before Chief VanKuren retires. The Fire Department would <br />then have to have another candidate who is studying for that Chief's position <br />learn the Chief's- job, handle all those problems along with the assistant <br />chiefs problems and study for th.e exam. This would definitely put this <br />candidate in a disadvantage. <br />Our other option is to use another testing company -.and have our new chief <br />assigned and trained before ChJ of VanKuren retires. <br />The Commission finally decided that it would be better all around i'f we had <br />a new chief assigned to that position and trained by Chief VanKuren before <br />Chief VanKuren retires another testing company will be used. That testing <br />company is the Ohio Fire Chief's Organization . <br />Robert Wendt will contact Chief Lee (head of the Ohio Fire Chief's Organization) <br />tomorrow and try -and set a date for the test and get a reading list of books <br />for th.e candidates to study from. At that time a p@rcentage will be set on <br />how much the oral and written portions should be graded. <br />Chief VanKuren mentioned that when revising Civil Services Handbook that we <br />should look at giving more points for evaluations because seniority shouldn't <br />get most of the extra points which are available. The Mayor and the Commission <br />said that the commission will look at changing the point system when we revise <br />our handbook, but at this time we can not change our by laws at mid -stream. <br />An,IOIIRNMFNT <br />As there were no further matters to be brought before the commission, the <br />meeting.adjourned at 5:40 pm.
