City seeks civil service applicants


September 6, 2012 · Updated 9:07 AM 

Applicants are being sought for two vacancies on the Langley Civil Service Commission.

The three-member group performs duties outlined under state law for the selection, appointment and employment of full-time employees with the Langley Police Department, including the chief of police.

It also promulgates rules and regulations for testing, examination and appointment along with suspensions and discharges of police officers and other related matters.

The commission does not meet regularly but on an as needed basis.

Positions carry a six-year term and applicants are selected by Mayor Larry Kwarsick and confirmed by the Langley City Council. Applicants must be U.S. citizens, have lived inside city limits for three years and be registered voters.

To apply, send a letter of interest to Clerk-Treasurer Debbie Mahler, City of Langley, P.O. Box 366, Langley, WA 98260.
