Mr. Ubaldi indicated he can draft the information and have the Law Department review it. Mr. O'Malley indicated past procedures that the Commission would solicit and survey the testing companies, solicit a contract proposal, and would start the process for City Hall's authorization to enter into the contract. Mr. Ubaldi made a motion that the Civil Service Commission begins the creation and mailing of a request for qualification to pertinent consultants that have or will respond to the initial request in relations to the testing for the Corrections Officers. Mr. Hohmann seconded the motion and unanimously approved. Review the Law Department's research on time span for testing a Corrections Officer. Mr. O'Malley indicated that the Corrections Officer has a twelve (12) month probationary period, if their performing work is covered by the collective bargaining agreement for a time period of less than twelve (12) months or a time period equal to one half ( %) of the time period of the probationary period whichever is a lesser period of time. Within the first six (6) months, the employee is subject to testing in competition; after the six (6) month or within the twelve (12) month period, the employee is just required to pass the test; absence of a test, after the twelve (12) month period, employee becomes a permanent appointment.

NEW BUSINESS: Review of the appointing authority's request to remove Migdelio Carmargo from the Police Entry -Level Eligibility List pursuant to Rule VII, Section 8, a. Mr. Ubaldi made a motion pursuant to a violation of Rule VII, Eligible List, Section 8, Disqualification and Notice, sub -section a, "The eligible person's application contains a false statement or a material omission", verified by the Safety Department that Migdelio Carmargo's name be removed from the list. Mr. Hohmann seconded the motion and unanimously approved. Mr. Ubaldi indicated that a memo to the Safety Director, Tom Terbrack, was received from Chief Ruple dated March 8, 2006 stating the removal of Migdelio Carmargo from the eligibility list because he lied on his background information and provided false information. Attached was information from Detective Branscum investigating Mr. Carmargo. Sergeant Bonnell and Detective Branscum found information at the Avon Lake Police Department that Mr. Carmargo may have passed a bad check or possibly a forgery offense. They also found out that he has applied at the Cuyahoga Falls Police Department. They found that admissions confirmed the accusation and also admissions to the narcotics, specifically marijuana, to which Mr. Carmargo denied on his application.
