Liberty Lake civil service commission approves corporal and lateral interview questions; excuses Webster

The Civil Service Commission for the Liberty Lake Police Department on March 13 approved the set of corporal and lateral interview questions and excused Commissioner Webster, who was absent due to a family conflict and illness.

The approvals occurred during a short meeting in which commissioners also approved previous meeting minutes and heard no public comment. Commissioners made and seconded motions for each action; the motions were adopted without recorded opposition.

Commissioners noted Webster's absence at roll call. An unnamed commissioner said Webster "is absent. She has a family conflict, and she's also ill," and asked for a motion to excuse her. A motion to excuse Webster was made, seconded and approved by the two commissioners present.

In old business, the commission moved to approve the corporal and lateral interview questions. One commissioner said they had reviewed the questions; another moved and seconded approval and the motion passed with an "all in favor" from those present. Minutes from the previous meeting were also moved and seconded for approval; the commissioners indicated a vote was unnecessary because only the two members were present and the motion was carried.

The commission asked whether there were any public comments; staff member Evan reported there were none online. The body declined to enter executive session. A motion to adjourn was made and seconded, and the meeting ended shortly thereafter.

The meeting record does not specify vote counts beyond the two commissioners present, nor does it identify individual movers or seconders by full name in the transcript excerpt.
