City Council is seeking applications for two vacancies on the five-member Municipal Civil Service Commission, created by an amendment to the City Charter approved by Austin voters in November 2012. The commission helped establish personnel rules in 2013 and sits as the ruling body on appeals of disciplinary actions by certain City of Austin employees. The time commitment for volunteer commissioners is about 20-30 hours a month. When selected by Council, these two commissioners will serve three-year terms. Applications may be submitted online. The deadline to apply is 5 p.m. April 22.
