COMMENTS Bob Pederson pointed out that he felt the Personnel Boards actions on the changes in job classifications of the October 29, 1985 regular meeting were proper, but the means in which they did it were not. He stated that according to his interpretation of the Personnel Policies those items required assembly approval. Mayor Selby pointed out that while changes in policy required Assembly approval, administration of these policies are clearly the responsibility of the Mayor. The job classification actions taken are specifically described as an administrative action in the Personnel Policy Manual. Mayor Jerome Selby mentioned that it would be advisable if the Personnel Advisory Board attended the Assembly meetings and gave input on all Personnel Board recommendations. He stated that they need to develop a rapport with the Assembly and advise the Assembly concerning recommendations that are made so the Assembly understands the rationale for the recommendations.
