Discussion ensued regarding letter from James Powers as to disqualifying an applicant
based on the background exam. He recommends the Chief offer/decline recommendation
of the candidate. The Board, assuming we are consistent in our application of the
background exam should go into executive session to discuss applicant. If we decide to
potentially deny applicant we should offer one more interview for the applicant to explain
prior discharges/mitigating circumstances. The final decision can be made at that point.
