Lancaster City Council hears proposal to eliminate seniority points from police, fire promotion process


When: Lancaster City Council committee meeting, held virtually, May 3.
What happened: Council was given a proposal to remove seniority points from the promotion process in the city’s police and fire bureaus. Council tabled further discussion until late May after the president of the local firefighters union said the move caught members off guard.
What’s next: The first reading of the change will be at council’s May 25 meeting, with a vote in June.
Mayor’s case: The proposed amendment to the Civil Service ordinance would eliminate five points  currently earned for seniority during the promotion process. “We as a community are looking to elevate the very best into leadership positions because these are the folks that are making the day-to-day decisions that are in essence protecting the lives and property … (of) city residents,”  Mayor Danene Sorace said. “Extra seniority points — and I understand that this is controversial — in my view do not level the playing field to make sure that we’re elevating that best person.”
