Background and Analysis:

At its July 22, 2020, meeting, the General Government Committee recommended hiring a Police Auditor without revisions to the existing Ordinance No. 6220.  This would allow the Police Auditor position to be filled in 2020. During the one-year term of the contract, updates to the ordinance can be considered, evaluated and incorporated before the recruitment and hiring of the next Police Auditor in 2021

 

At its Aug. 11, 2020, meeting, the City Council directed staff to launch the hiring process for a Police Auditor under the existing Ordinance No. 6220. The application process closed on September 21, and two applications were received

 

The General Government Committee will interview the candidates. The Interview schedule is attached.  Applicants have been notified.  Due to gathering restrictions under the COVID-19 pandemic, the interviews will be in conducted over Zoom.
