Re: Background Check Ordinance
Date: October 1, 2008
Council Action Requested:
Conduct a public hearing and approve the second reading, amending the City s ordinance
relating to background checks for non-public safety personnel.
Bac_k~round Information:
State statute provides regulations on when police departments may do background checks
on non public safety'applicants and what information must be provided to the applicant
during and after the process. The City uses the attached language in its current
background cheek packet, and it is also included in the recently amended proposed
personnel policy. An audit by the BCA last year noted that the City Council should adopt
the policy as an ordinance, and staff recommends that be done.
if you have any questions, please let me-know.
Thank you.
