Item No. 11 <br />memo�andum <br />TO: Mayor & City Council <br />FROM: John Godwin, City Manager <br />SUBJECT: CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSION APPOINTMENT <br />DATE: January 4, 2013 <br />BACKGROLTND: Because our police and fire departments operate under a civil service system, <br />we are required to have a local three-member civil service commission. Members' terms vary in <br />length, so do not expire at one time. Sims Norment recently completed a second three-year term <br />on the commission and indicated he does not wish to be re-appointed again. <br />STATUS OF ISSUE: At this point, we have received one application to serve. Mr. Russell <br />Figgins is employed by Liberty Bank, and meets Paris residency requirements to serve on the <br />commission. The council needs to appoint Mr. Figgins, preferably before the next commission <br />meeting, or seek other applicant(s). <br />BUDGET: NA. <br />RECOMMENDATION: Appoint new commission member. <br />
