6. NEW BUSINESS
A. Request to extend the Eligibility List for Fire Engineer for six (6) months submitted by Chief Hanneman.
Chief Hanneman requested that the eligibility list be extended for six months. The original intent of the Fire
Department was to request to extend the list for one year; however, the Commission was noticed for a six month
extension. The Fire Department will likely make a request in six months to extend the list for an additional six-
month time period. The extension is being requested due to the lack of funds to initiate a test; the lack of
anticipated openings for the Fire Engineer position; and aside-letter agreement with IAFF exists stating that if
there were an opening under specified conditions, the department would not fill the position for a period of two
years. He did advise that a grant exists, which may require filling a position within a specified timeframe. He
further stated that the union is aware of his request to the Commission.
MSC (MarrufoNillegas-Zuniga) 4-0-0 to approve the minutes. Unanimously approved.
