Issue Detail: On January 17, 2023, the City issued RFP No. P23081111001 for consulting services to provide as-needed examination and testing for the Police and Fire departments. On November 27, 2023, it approved Contract PRC002410 with CPSHR Consulting to conduct these services, which are required as part of the selection process for Civil Service Classifications.
Promotional Civil Service examinations are open only to internal candidates with experience in lower City classifications within the same progression ladder. To ensure a fair selection process, the Police and Fire departments utilize consulting firms to oversee promotional examinations.
As of September 10, 2026, $42,760 remains available. Based on anticipated vacancies and expiring eligibility lists, at least three additional public safety recruitments are anticipated, with an estimated cost of $80,000. The remaining $42,760 will serve as a contingency to help offset these costs and provide flexibility should additional recruitments be needed beyond the three currently anticipated. This increases the NTE to $470,000, exceeding the $250,000 threshold, and requires City Council approval.
