CITY OF NORTH OLMSTED CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSION 5200 Dover Center Road • North Olmsted, Ohio 44070 Phone: 777-8000 Ext, 232 Fax: 777-5889 CIVIL SERVICE MEETING: October 22, 1992 PRESENT: Chairman Jim Hines, Commissioner Glenn Marks, Secretary Tracy Ice GUESTS: Mr. Gundy, Police Sefcek, Chief Osterhouse, Mr. Conway, Jim Dubelko ' MINUTES OF PREVIOUS MEETING APPROVED AS READ. OLD BUSINESS Jim Hines is in the process of drafting up the following letters regarding these items: Letter to R. Wilamosky regarding his letter dated 7-30-92 regarding Hootman/Marella. Letter to Randy Angle regarding the Correction Officer position. Find out from M. Gareau if the Civil Service testing for the schools can be done away with. Paper work on H. Robinson from Mayor Boyle. The Commission discussed whether Janet Kemerling should be removed from the Certified List for Property Maintenance. Mr. Conway basically said that Janet does not have enough experience in this area and he feels she should be removed from our list. Mr. Conway wants someone who has more than a high school education. Someone has been exposed to construction and construction practices. He doesn't want to send someone to school to be trained for this job. Mr. Conway says that she owns 3 rental homes and that is how she received the knowledge she has. Janet scored 2nd from the written test and once military credit was added in she moved down to 3rd place. Mr. Hines felt that the job description said knowledge or experience and therefore he feels that since the ad wasn't explained in more detail that she should not be removed. Mr. Dubelko said that knowledge is important along with test scores - it must tie in together. We shouldn't base this position just on the test scores itself. Mr. Gundy feels that for this position not as much knowledge is needed like the Building Inspector position. This job pays $5,000 to $6,000 less and shouldn't require the same amount of knowledge as a higher paying job. Mr. Gundy knew the types of questions on the test and for her to have done so well on the test she must have had a lot of knowledge. We did not have code related items on the test. It was a basic test for this position.
