Chair Steve Tellatin named Commission Investigator on citizen petition

The Civil Service Commission named Chairman Steve Tellatin as the Commission Investigator on a citizen petition during its July 9 meeting. Member Dave Pinkall moved the appointment, Member Doug Backens seconded, and the motion passed by unanimous roll call (Tellatin, Backens and Pinkall — Aye).

The minutes record the appointment but do not describe the investigator’s specific duties, timeline, or reporting requirements. The investigator appointment was recorded separately from the retention of outside counsel and appears intended to guide the Commission’s internal fact-gathering related to the petition.
