If the Council desires, it may request the <br /> recommendations of the Clerk Administrator or department <br /> head. <br /> A. BY EXAMINATION. When required by law, by the City Councilor <br /> Clerk Administrator, job-relevant qualifications, merit and <br /> fitness may be ascertained by administering jOb-relevant <br /> written, oral, physical, psychological, medical or other <br /> examinations which will determine the relative ability of the <br /> candidate to discharge efficiently all duties of the position <br /> for which such examinations are held. <br /> . B. WITHOUT EXAMINATION. In case of appointment to positions for <br /> which examinations are not required, the city Councilor <br /> Clerk Administrator may appoint any person who appears to <br /> meet the jOb-relevant requirements listed in the class <br /> specifications and who is found to be qualified to perform <br /> all duties of the position. <br /> C. RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER CITY PERSONNEL. <br /> Whenever possible, with due regard for job-relevant <br /> qualifications, merit and fitness, the city Councilor Clerk <br /> Administrator shall avoid the appointment of any person <br /> within the immediate family of elected or appointed officers <br /> or employees of the City. In the event that a member of the <br /> family is appointed to a position, the appointment shall not <br /> be made within the same department in which an immediate <br /> family member works. This provision does not apply to <br /> marital status, as protected under the Minnesota Human Rights <br /> Act. Employment of the spouse of an elected or appointed <br /> officer or employee is not prohibited; however, appointment <br /> or assignment of an employee's spouse in the same department <br /> in which the employee works is prohibited. <br /> . -4- <br />
