What is the Civil Service Commission
The
Civil Service Commission is a voluntary board that oversees entry-level hiring
and promotional processes for most sworn positions within the Police and Fire
Departments. They also act as a quasi-judicial
body in certain disciplinary cases,
including suspensions, demotions, and terminations.
The
Commission also serves
as the Personnel Review Board and act as a panel to review the City Manager’s
decision to terminate a general, non-probationary employee.
Wyoming State Statutes govern the Civil Service Commission
Term Members shall hold office for three (3) year terms and serve until a qualified successor is appointed by City Council.
Eligibility - Employees within the Fire or Police Department are not eligible to serve as a Commissioner.
