SUMMARY:
The current City Code § 2.20.020 states that:
"The Chief of Police shall be appointed by the City Manager, whose appointment shall be confirmed by the City Council, and shall serve at the pleasure of the City Manager on terms and conditions as may be approved by the City Council. The Chief of Police shall be subject to the direction of the City Manager."
In this item, the ordinance before the City Council today has that the City Manager appoints the Chief of Police and includes the position in the classified service.
Other changes:
The ordinance amends City Code § 2.20.010 to take out the reference to "Marshal," which only applies to towns under ARS § 9-237. Under ARS § 9-271, once the population hit 3,000, the Chief of Police can be designated.
The ordinance removes language that is not necessary for City Code § 2.20-030 once the position is in the classified service. The change is shown as stricken:
"The Chief of Police shall be appointed by the City Manager, whose appointment shall be confirmed by the City Council, and shall serve at the pleasure of the City Manager on terms and conditions as may be approved by the City Council. The Chief of Police shall be subject to the direction of the City Manager."
