Latest version.

While either the chief of police or the chief of fire holds the position as provided in this charter, the director of public safety shall have the exclusive right to suspend either chief for incompetence, inefficiency, dishonesty, drunkenness, immoral conduct, insubordination, neglect of duty, or any other act of misfeasance, malfeasance, nonfeasance, or for conviction of a felony. Upon suspension of either chief, the director of public safety shall immediately certify the fact, together with charges that are the cause of such suspension, to the civil service commission, which within sixty (60) days from the date of its receipt of such notice, shall commence a hearing upon the charges and render judgment thereon in an expeditious manner, which judgment may be suspension, reduction in rank or dismissal, and shall be final.
