Law Enforcement Officer Employment Amendments

Summary

The bill changes state law so that before a municipality can suspend for more than two days, demote, fire, or transfer a classified law enforcement officer, it must first notify the officer of the allegations, allow at least two business days for a written response, consider that response, and provide a hearing. The officer also retains the right to appeal the decision to the civil service commission or an appeal board. The changes apply only to law enforcement officers and do not affect other civil service employees.
