FOR POLICE OFFICER
According to Human Resources Director Heathcoe, the Personnel Board appeal hearing for police officer Brett Murray scheduled for tomorrow morning has been postponed for technical reasons: apparently the official who reviewed the case had not been previously approved by the city council. The matter will have to be resolved by the city council according to Heathcoe.
According to sources within the police department, the case does not involve possible termination.

"Per the December 27, 2012 City Council meeting , "Councilmember Ford moved to grant the request of Chief Joe Petties requesting permission the appointment of (retired) Deputy Wayne Gandy as the Review Officer for the Fairhope Police Department who would be replacing Deputy Chief Barber of the Mobile Police Department.

This matter will have to be addressed and approved the City Council. Due to this issue, the disciplinary hearing for Officer Brett Murray, previously scheduled forWednesday, January 30th has been postponed until further notice."scheduled for tomorrow morning"
