Board hears staff explanation of appeal rights for confidential, non‑represented employees
Summary
HR told trustees the civil service board provides an appeal process for 36 confidential, non‑represented employees; staff clarified how that due-process path complements union representation for other staff.
During the HR presentation, a trustee asked whether the board's due-process role applies to nonunion employees. HR presenter Edgel explained that the board provides an appeal forum for confidential employees who are not represented by bargaining units and described the categories of staff covered.
Edgel gave a staffing breakdown in response: he said the city has 2,077 employees, referenced a full‑time figure verbally ('16 99' in the transcript) and stated that about 85% of the full‑time number are union-represented. He said there are 250 appointed employees and 36 confidential employees who may bring appeals to the civil service board. Trustees asked clarifying questions about representation and internal development.
