Request to Extend a
Temporary(now Provisional)
Commander Appointment
Chief Villa requested a 6 month extension for Sgt. Bill Devlin to
continue serving as a Temporary(now Provisional) Commander.
Chief Villa and Stephanie noted that this extension was necessary
due to the continuity of department operations with recent staffing
challenges, resignations, along with unanticipated administrative
leaves and investigations currently in process. In addition, the
Chief will be extending a 2nd appointment for Deputy Chief
Mitchell due to Deputy Chief Linton's extensive work in
preparation for the upcoming bond measure. Commissioners
discussed the request and asked clarifying questions. Johnston
noted a Commander test is eminent for 2017 due to no eligibility
list currently in place and the prior extensions in 2016. Chief Villa
indicated the goal is to have Commander testing completed by end
of second quarter.
