The New Orleans Civil Service Commission on Monday reaffirmed a controversial Nov. 3 vote that made significant changes to city personnel practices, apparently related to litigation over Mayor Mitch Landrieu’s Great Place to Work Initiative. That effort was a sweeping overhaul this summer of the city’s policies on hiring, promoting and evaluating employees. The commission agreed to the reconsideration in response to public outcry about its previous vote. The Nov. 3 vote was not announced in an agenda beforehand, and commissioners provided no explanation for why the changes were necessary. Even so, commissioners on Monday again provided little explanation for the policy changes before taking a vote. The commission also approved a pay raise plan for police officers, even though the proposal is twice as high as a pay raise funded in Landrieu’s 2015 budget.
