CivilServiceBoard | 2013-10-02 | 3 | City of Alameda Page 3 Civil Service Board Minutes Regular Meeting October 2, 2013 Maintenance Department an opening might be on the concrete crew, plumbing crew, traffic signal crew, etc. The particular opening that was left in this situation was in the concrete crew and the person would have to be particularly versed in reading blue prints and designs. An Eligible List might include individuals who have passed the general qualifications for a classification but did not excel in a particular area of a given position vacancy. In such cases, departments may need a larger list to select from. Member Malloy asked if there were selections made from the list prior to it only having one person on it. Acting Human Resources Director Kovacs stated yes, the list was a promotional list. Originally there were three names on it and two people were selected for other positions. There is one remaining vacant position and the one candidate left on the list was not strong in the particular skill area of the current position vacancy. Member Malloy asked if the new list will be promotional only or open. Acting Human Resources Director Kovacs stated it will be open. Member Malloy stated that many times departments just do not want the third or fourth person on a list. So the list is closed early to exclude the person, as opposed to them not having the skill set. Acting Human Resources Director Kovacs stated we want our employees to have promotional opportunities so when appropriate, a promotional exam is done first. That way, the department has the chance to interview all candidates that meet the minimum qualifications, looking at the particular opening, which shop they are trying to staff, and what the skill expertise is for that particular assignment. Member McHugh stated that this is similar to the situation that went on with the City Attorney's Office. Acting Human Resources Director Kovacs stated yes. Member Malloy moved that Consent Calendar items 4-A.iii be approved. Motion was seconded by Member Santos which was passed by a 4-0-1 vote (Vice President Batchelor absent). 4-A.iv.
