Civil Service Commission

The Civil Service Commission is a seven-member governing body with authority over Civil Service positions. The Commission approves testing plans to fill positions for City employment; reviews new and revised classifications (job descriptions); and serves as an appellant board on matters regarding the employee selection process, appeals of below standard performance evaluations, and disciplinary actions. A sub-committee of the Commission, the Employee Relations Committee, assigns newly created positions to employee representation units.

Governing Code: TMC Division 1, Chapter 3, Article 10, Sections 13.10.1 13.10.8

Minutes are not posted online. Contact the City Clerk's office at (310) 618-2870 to discuss availability.
