Ruston's civil service commission held their regular meeting last night. There has been some trouble coordinating a meeting for the last few months, so this is the first time the commission has met in some time.
Police chief Sharon Reese reports that the town's regular attorney, David Britton attended the meeting on behalf of Mr. Winterbauer. Mr. Winterbauer is the attorney who is hired to advise the commission. Mr. Britton had some draft by-laws for the commission to consider. Commission chair Connie Maglione had suggested looking at Bainbridge Island's by-laws as well. No decision on this issue was made.
Chief Reese outlined a plan to advertise for police chief, officers and reserves, all of which have vacancies currently or pending. The chief will present suggestions for how the commission could conduct the hiring process when they are completed.
The commission was informed of a seminar for new civil service commissioners that is recommended by AWC. It will be held in Yakima in October. The commission also went to executive session for a time to discuss former chief Reinhold's complaint.

Do you know which commission members attended?
No, I don't know. I wasn't there in person. I'll try to find out and let you know in a comment here.
Ex-police chief Jim Reinhold and Charlene Hagen attended. Chair Connie Maglione presented a letter from Reinhold.
I've confirmed that all three commission members attended the meeting (Connie Maglione, Jon Anderson and Bill Walker).
Commission Chair Magoline notes that a copy of the letter were provided to the mayor and town attorney last week as well.
