The CSO I position covers evenings <br />and weekends, and supplements patrol operations. The position was posted internally and four internal <br />candidates applied. Following the process, Rebecca Thomas, the department's 2009 summer intern, was <br />selected as the leading candidate. <br />*NOTE* Rebecca has recently completed her Bachelor's Degree in law enforcement from Bemidji State <br />University and is currently attending the law enforcement skills program at Alexandria Technical College, <br />which ends July 23, 2010. Due to the scheduling of classes it is the intent of the department to begin her <br />employment status on a part-time basis, covering weekend shifts. Once she has completed her skills <br />training her status will become full-time covering weekends and evenings. <br />Financial Impact <br />This position was vacated due to the promotion of the former occupant. The funds were budgeted for <br />this position in 2010; the new CSO will start at the first step of the pay scale, so an overall savings will be <br />realized. <br />Attachments <br />None <br />Action Motion by Second by Vote <br />Follow Up <br />C:\Documents and Settings\XPMUser\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\OLK66\Action Requested CSO Hire 2.doc <br />
