Consensus is reached for more backgrounds to be done. All of the rest of the current Illinois Law Enforcement Certified candidates
as well as the top 7 of non-certified candidates will be investigated. Katie will get copies of their files to YPD and Chief will let
BFPC know when they are completed.
Budget: BFPC needs to know what the budget for the current year is. The copy of the current city budget allocates $7,000 for
BFPO. This is less than the past(probably because the BFPC did not use the entire budget last year). This needs to be addressed
for the next year due to the expenses for promotional testing.
There was a discussion of rank titles that may be used in the future at YPD. There may be some changes. The city ordinances are
out of date.
Discussion was held about the possibilities of how to streamline the whole process of hiring and promoting. This will need to be
discussed in detail in the future.
The next meeting date is not set, as we need to wait until some of the background checks are completed.
The next Commissioners' Conference is scheduled for the first weekend in November in Bloomingdale.
Commissioner Anderson moved to adjourn. Commissioner Putzler seconded. Motion carried.
Meeting adjourned at 7:10 p.m.
