AI Summary
This bill amends Louisiana Revised Statute 33:2554, specifically adding a new provision (C)(6) that outlines how vacant positions in the Harahan police department are to be filled. If a vacancy cannot be filled by someone returning to the department (reinstatement or reemployment), the police department's board will then provide a list of eligible candidates from a promotional list. The appointing authority, meaning the person responsible for hiring, must then choose and appoint someone from that list who is among the three highest in departmental seniority, meaning they have worked for the department the longest. This provision is intended to clarify and standardize the hiring process for the classified police service in the city of Harahan.
