By Council Member Gerges (by the request of the Mayor) (Read and referred to the Committee on Governmental Operations) (Amended June 5, 1990) (Ordered reprinted and laid over) (Re-referred to the Committee on Finance)

A Local Law to amend the New York city charter, in relation to the appointment of the city sheriff

Be it enacted by the Council as follows:

Section one. Declaration of legislative findings and intent. The Council finds and declares that the Mayor should have greater discretion in the appointment of the City Sheriff. Eliminating the requirement that the Sheriff be chosen by competitive examination would achieve this purpose. It is the intent of the Council that deputy sheriffs and administrative sheriffs should continue to be selected by competitive examination and that a reclassification of these positions would not serve the best interests of the city.
