FACTS * The Director of Community Development has requested that a closed promotional exam be conducted for the position of Economic Development Specialist. * Staff has identified three current members of the City workforce who qualify and have expressed interest in the position.

Personnel Board for the City of Lynwood was devoid of any mention as to the Fire Fighter issue nor was I given an amended agenda. A check of some of the newspapers reveal that they were not given amended agendas either. Therefore I feel Section 54950 thru.54961 of the Brown Act were violated.and I am demanding the Personnel Board and the City of correct its actions as soon as possible.
