Title
An Ordinance Amending Title 8 (Police), Chapter 1 (Police Department) of the Orland Park Village Code Regarding the Appointment of Certain Police Officers in the Police Department of the Village of Orland Park
History
This ordinance amends Title 2 of the Village Code related to Additional Assignments in the Police Department. Specifically, it states appointments to Lieutenant shall come from the rank of Sergeant and that the rank of Commander shall come from among the officers in the ranks of Sergeant or Lieutenant rather than by appointment of the Village Manager. The proposed ordinance also states appointment to Deputy Chief shall come from qualified individuals within or outside of the Orland Park Police Department.
Two minor corrections are addressed by the ordinance. First, it changes the number of Lieutenants from 3 to 5 to reflect the current number of these positions. The second correction updates language regarding eligibility for overtime pay to reflect existing collective bargaining agreement language that allows Lieutenants to receive overtime pay.
Financial Impact

I move to adopt an Ordinance entitled: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING TITLE 8 (POLICE), CHAPTER 1 (POLICE DEPARTMENT) OF THE ORLAND PARK VILLAGE CODE REGARDING THE APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN POLICE OFFICERS IN THE POLICE DEPARTMENT OF THE VILLAGE OF ORLAND PARK.
