CORRECT.

71 APPLICATIONS? YES.

ONE REJECT.

WE HAVE IT FIRST BY MS. TRINA, SECOND BY PRESS.

DO A SEPARATE ONE FOR THE FIRE.

TO APPROVE OR REJECT EXAMINATION RESULTS.

I WANT TO TAKE, TAKE SOMETHING ELSE UP WHILE HE IS LOOKING THROUGH IT.

OR JUST WAIT FOR HIM.

JUST WAIT WHILE, CAN'T EVEN GOT THROUGH THE FIRST, FIRST.

SO YOU, YOU WANT THE BOARD TO WAIT ON YOU? NO, Y'ALL GO.

UH, THINK I APOLOGIZE FOR SPEAKING FROM A SEAT, BUT, UH, NO, I DO NOT HAVE ANY.

UH, THERE WAS GOING TO BE ONE, BUT THERE HAS BEEN CLARIFICATION ON, UH, ENTRY LEVEL, UH, COMMUNICATIONS ONE.

SO THAT IS HANDLED THE SAME WAY THE ENTRY LEVEL POSITION FOR POLICE OFFICER IS HANDLED.

AND THAT'S THROUGH THE OFFICE

[00:10:01]

OF, UH, STATE EXAMINER, EXCUSE ME, THE STATE EXAMINER'S OFFICE.

AND SO, NO, WE DO NOT HAVE TO CALL FOR ANY.

THANK YOU.

SO AT THIS TIME, WE'LL TAKE NO ACTION ON THIS MATTER AND MOVE ON TO ITEM NUMBER EIGHT, WHICH IS CONSIDERED MOTION TO APPROVE FINDINGS

[8. Consider Motion to Approve Findings of Fact, related to Cpl. Mattingly Appeal - BRPD]

AND I THINK WE HAVE THOSE IN, UH, YOUR PACKET, MR. CHAIRMAN, I ACCEPT.

DID YOU HAVE A COMMENT? ALL RIGHT.

UH, SO WE HAVE A MOTION BY PEREZ.

IS THERE A SECOND? ALL RIGHT.

SECOND BY MS. TRINA.

IS RECEIVE UPDATE ON, UH, THE KENNETH CAMELO APPEAL SETTLEMENT WITH B R P D.

MOVING ON TO ITEM NUMBER NINE, WHICH

[9. Receive Update on K. Camallo Appeal Settlement - BRPD]

AND I CAN TAKE THIS ONE UP.

UM, SO YOU GUYS MAY REMEMBER THERE WERE THREE SEPARATE APPEALS FOR, UH, I THINK IT'S SERGEANT KENNETH KALO.

UM, IT WAS REPRESENTED TO THE BOARD THAT THE MATTER HAD RESOLVED WHEN THE HEARING DATES, UH, CAME.

IT APPEARS THAT THE SETTLEMENT HAS FALLEN APART.

SO WHAT THEY'RE ASKING, WHAT THE PARTIES ARE ASKING FOR NOW, IS THAT WE GO AHEAD AND JUST SET THE, UH, THE APPEAL HEARINGS.

UM, THERE IS, LIKE I SAID, THERE'S THREE OF 'EM.

TWO OF 'EM ARE STILL AT THE BOARD LEVEL.

THERE'S ONE THAT HAS GONE UP TO THE 19TH JDC BASED ON THE BOARD'S DECISION AND A MOTION FOR SUMMARY DISPOSITION.

SO ONE OF THE PARTIES DIDN'T AGREE, UH, SO THEY APPEALED THAT, THAT DECISION.

SO WE DO NEED TO SET TWO APPEALS FOR KENNETH.

KAMALA.

WE ASKED THAT THE ATTORNEYS GIVE US SOME DATES.

AND IT LOOKS LIKE THE DATES THAT WE HAVE WHERE BOTH ATTORNEYS ARE AVAILABLE, IT'S GONNA BE THAT FIRST WEEK OF AUGUST.

I WANNA MAKE SURE I'M TELLING Y'ALL RIGHT.

LOOKS LIKE IT'S AUGUST 2ND AND THIRD.

SO TODAY, ACCORDING TO THE PARTIES, UH, WE'LL TRY TO PUSH THROUGH IT, BUT THEY'VE SUGGESTED THAT WE GO AHEAD AND SCHEDULE, UH, TWO DAYS JUST TO BE ON THE SAFE SIDE.

WHEN IS IT? AUGUST 2ND AND THIRD.

I THINK.

UH, WE DO HAVE, AT THAT POINT, WE WILL HAVE NEW MEMBERS, RIGHT? MAY MAY, WE SHOULD.

BUT I THINK WE SHOULD TEND GO AHEAD AND SCHEDULE IT.

SO, UH, I'LL MAKE A MOTION THAT WE SCHEDULE THE HEARING ON THOSE DATES.

UH, I THINK WE NEED TO CHECK WITH THE, UM, OFFICE TO MAKE SURE THAT THE ROOM IS AVAILABLE.

UH, BUT BARRING THAT, UH, I'D LIKE TO MOVE THAT WE SCHEDULE THOSE APPEAL HINGE FOR THE SECOND AND THIRD, THAT ADDITION REGULARLY ADDITION TO OUR REGULAR SCHEDULED MEETING.

THAT'S, THAT'S A GOOD QUESTION.

YES, I WOULD SAY SO.

WE HAVE AN APPEAL SCHEDULED AT THE END OF AUGUST.

WHAT THE BOARD MAY WANT TO CONSIDER, THOUGH, THE WEEK BEFORE AUGUST AND SEC, AUGUST 2ND AND THIRD IS THE JULY REGULARLY SCHEDULED MEETING.

IT MAY BE PRUDENT JUST TO MOVE IT TO THE NEXT WEEK SO THAT, THAT THE BOARD DOESN'T HAVE TO MEET MULTIPLE TIMES.

UH, WHAT'S YOUR PLEASURE? THIS? SO THE, WELL, WE CAN'T MOVE THIS DATE.

WE HAVE A SCHEDULING CONFLICT WITH HIS, FOR THE, FOR THE ONE.

WE JUST, I THINK JIM SAID HE WOULD BE OUT OF TOWN FOR THAT REGULAR SCHEDULED MEETING.

NO, WHAT I'M SUGGESTING.

SO THE NEXT SCHEDULED MEETING IS JULY 24TH? YES.

UM, WE DON'T HAVE A HEARING SCHEDULED ON JULY 24TH, AT LEAST AS OF RIGHT NOW, WE DON'T HAVE ANYTHING BIG ON JULY 24TH.

SO WHAT WE OH, GOTCHA.

WHAT WE MAY WANT TO DO IS MOVE JULY 24TH TO AUGUST 2ND, SO THAT WAY, UH, THE BOARD DOESN'T HAVE TO MEET, I GUESS, THREE TIMES IN TWO WEEKS.

THAT MAKES SENSE.

SO THERE, WE, WE WILL HAVE A MOTION TO CHANGE OUR JULY 24TH MEETING TO THE AUGUST 2ND AND THIRD.

IS THAT WHAT WE'RE REQUESTING? ALL RIGHT.

SO A MOTION AND SECOND BY PRESS.

SO OUR JULY 24TH MEETING WILL NOW BE ON THE SECOND AND 3RD OF AUGUST.

THAT'S HER BIRTHDAY.

CAN'T THINK OF ANYTHING I DO.

THAT SETTLES ITEM NUMBER NINE.

10, WHICH IS THE REQUEST FOR THE REHIRE FOR ZACHARY PRION.

WHICH MOVES THIS TO ITEM NUMBER

[Additional Item 1]

AND WE DO HAVE, LIKE I SAID, THE LETTER FROM THE CHIEF ASKING

[00:15:02]

US TO GRANT THIS.

AND IT LOOKS LIKE THIS GUY JUST RECENTLY LEFT THE DEPARTMENT.

OCTOBER 14TH, 2022.

UH, LEFT THE DEPARTMENT IN GOOD STANDING AND WOULD LIKE TO RETURN.

SO DO WE HAVE A MOTION? ALL RIGHT.

WE GOT A MOTION YOU ACCEPT FROM TRINA.
