Agenda Item Summary:
Resolution No. 2012-114 “Resolution establishing a policy to give consideration to people with disabilities when interviewing for open positions within the City of Rapid City” was signed October 1, 2012. Employment practices are typically established in City policies, rather than resolutions, and the best practice of utilizing policies for HR directives supports the goals of transparency and consistency in application.

Approval of the Disability Accommodation Policy would support the centralization of employment practices while clearly affirming the City’s commitment to providing equal employment opportunities to qualified individuals with disabilities by fully complying with the Americans with Disability Act (ADA).
