InterOffice Memo
TO: City of Tukwila Civil Service Commission
FROM: Assistant Fire Chief Chris Flores
DATE: 02/01/13
RE: Proposed Language, Rule IX. Eligible Lists
I propose the following changes to Rule IX, Section 1. Order of Names on Lists
Maintain the current language regarding veteran’s preference credits.
Strike the sentence that states “Whenever two or more persons have equal claim to a position on
a list, their names shall be arranged according to the date of application, and if the same,
alphabetically.”
Replace stricken language with: The preference in rank of eligibles having equal final general
averages shall be determined as follows, in the order stated: When the examination is composed
of two or more parts with separate grades, the one who has the highest grade on the most heavily
weighted part of the examination shall maintain the higher position on the list; if a tie still exists,
then the highest grade on the next most heavily weighted part shall be utilized for determining
this ranking, and so for as many parts as the examination contains.
