Employee grievance appeal hearing
Summary
The Commission decided how to handle a city employee's grievance appeal — hear it in person, rule on paper, or hand it to an outside hearing officer. They chose a full closed hearing, saying witnesses would give both sides a fairer process. Scheduling is now tangled up with another long disciplinary hearing this fall.
