OLD BUSINESS: <br />1. Continued discussion of the Police and Fire entry-level sections of the Civil Service Handbook. <br />Ms. Giesser indicated that the board would not motion on any rule changes but would review the suggested <br />wording as it was found that the handbook does not allow changes at special meetings. In the wording of the <br />changes the board would rather use the word "shall" rather than "must". The age requirement will be in <br />accordance with State Code as well as all entry-level requirements. The commission will require a copy of <br />each candidate's paramedic certification card be received in the application packet. Discussion regarding the <br />number of candidates that will be tested and number of applications handed out took place. Discussion <br />regarding what is required in an application and completeness of applications took place. The commission <br />was advised that State law does not compel the commission to allow a protest period on an entry-level test. <br />Discussion regarding vision requirements took place. The law Department will work on final wording for <br />protest periods, age requirements, vision requirements and agility wording. The clerk will submit additional <br />changes to proposed changes for the handbook for the next meeting. <br />2. Finalization of the State Personnel Board of Review Report. <br />Ms. Giesser advised the clerk to make sure all the names listed were accurate before submitting the report. <br />R.
