The Personnel Division is tasked with multiple areas of responsibility vital to police personnel and operations. Specific
areas of responsibility include: maintaining departmental personnel records; coordinating the department’s disability management
program; overseeing police recruitment processes; and coordinating the Master Police Officer Program.
Staff members work in partnership with the Department of Human Resources to attract and retain qualified police employees while
seeking improvements to the City’s Civil Service System and Classification/Compensation Plan. The Chief of Police gives priority attention
to career development and improvements to the City Classification and Compensation Plan. As such, the Personnel Division is tasked with
expanding career development opportunities for all employees (sworn and civilian) and enhancing pay and benefits in affiliation with Human Resources.
Additionally, attendance at Civil Service Commission (CSC) meetings along with Department of Human Resources personnel
stimulates constructive change and a work environment conducive to improvement.
