Reform 1.14: Personnel Department

Consolidate Personnel Department with Human Resources Department.

Other Information:

The City Charter has established a duplicative Personnel Department under the Civil Service Commission. Since city employees are unionized, consideration should be given to make the Civil Service Commission a purely advisory body with oversight over personnel practices – and permit the Personnel Department to be consolidated into the Office of Human Resources. Implementing these changes would require a Charter Amendment.
