POLICE COMMISSION MEETING 11/04/2015
Police Commissioner Chairman Richard Huber called the meeting to order at 4:00 PM in the City of
McHenry Aldermen’s Conference Room. Other Commissioner in attendance was Ramon Gregorio.
Others present, Chief of Police John Jones and Administrative Assistant Joan Lunsmann. Dr Michael
Roberts was absent.
Public Input:
None.
Consideration of September 2, 2015 Minutes
Motion by Mr. Gregorio, seconded by Mr Huber to approve the minutes from the September 2, 2015
Police Commission meeting as presented.
Voting Aye: Gregorio, Huber
Voting Nay: None
Absent: Roberts
Motion carried.
Unfinished Business:
Sgt. Exam Update
Chief Jones asked the commission members to consider a change in procedure for the next
promotional testing. It is common practice with other agencies to set a minimum score on the
written test to advance to the next round. Chief Jones believes setting a minimum would
expedite the process. Possibly a score of 70 on the written test could be required to move onto
the interview round. Promotional testing is not schedule to occur again until 2017 so there is
adequate time for discussion.
Personnel Update
Ofc. Ryan Ehardt broke his hand during training at PTI. He is being allowed to stay at the
academy and complete the classroom portion. He is unable to participate in the 40 hour weapons
qualification and will need to complete that prior to beginning his field training.
The hearing for Ofc. Mark Gandor with the pension board has been set for 11/12/15. More
details will be available after that meeting.
Chief Jones advised the commission members that the eligibility list is getting short again.
Requested that further discussion be held at the December meeting about re-testing. This would
be handled the same as last time: those individuals currently on the list would have the option of
re-testing or being included on the new list at the present score. This should be included on the
December 2, 2015 agenda as new business.
All new hires are doing well, including Shafer, Piekarski, Kinney, and Ehardt. The Chief
thanked the commission for obtaining good candidates.
Communications
None
Bills for Approval
Two invoices were submitted for approval. Illinois Fire & Police Commissioners Association for $375
and Stanard & Associates for $1185.00. Mr. Gregorio moved to accept and pay the invoices presented.
Mr. Huber seconded.
