Dear Mrs. Hickling:
~~ i.~~
`~ 2'
You have asked me to review Article 1269m and your Rules and Regulations
to determine what procedures could be taken if efficiency reports are not filed with
your Commission.
It is my belief that the requirement for efficiency reports should be made,
if you intend to require them, a rule of the Commission promulgated in the same way
as your other rules. Once this is done, any official of the City who refuses to comply
with your rules, if found guilty, can be punished by a fine of not less than $100.00 nor
more than $200.00, as set out in Section 25a of the statute.
-- Section 5 says "Failure to comply with the provisions of this section shall
be deemed a violation of this Act and punishable as such." It may be necessay to file
charges with the Justice of the Peace or some other appropriate Court to enforce
your rules.
You should follow the statute explicitly in the adoption of any such rule,
and its notice of adoption, and it would be appropriate to give a warning letter to the
official whose duty it is to furnish these reports.
You will recall that under other provisions of the statute the Commission
has the right to investigate whether or not its rules are being complied with and the
power of subpoena. The Commission may choose to investigate whether or not this
rule is being complied with, subpoena the official involved, and any records pertaining
to the efficiency reports to see if your rules are being followed.
It would seem that each day's failure to comply with the rules would be
a separate offense, and this might be pointed out in a meeting with the official involved.
This would also apply to your Rule 28, if it has finally been adopted in the proper way.
If I may be of further assistance, please contact me.
Yours very truly,
~/
