The 2015 City of Olivette Personnel and Rules and Regulations
is hereby adopted by reference. Said 2015 City of Olivette Personnel
and Rules and Regulations, as amended, is on file in the City offices
and shall be made a part of this Chapter as if fully set out herein.
[Ord. No. 2573 § 1, 3-8-2016]
A. The City Manager, or designee, is hereby authorized to request a
criminal background search on any employee, prospective employee,
volunteer, sports official, or coach, seeking to provide services
to the City of Olivette. Upon the City's request, such person shall
submit to having a set of his or her fingerprints taken by the Olivette
Police Department.
B. Upon receipt of the fingerprints, the Olivette Police Department
will transmit the fingerprints and the appropriate fees to the Missouri
State Highway Patrol (MSHP) in the form and manner required or allowed
by the MSHP. The MSHP shall, consistent with Section 43.535, RSMo.,
use the fingerprints to search Missouri's criminal records repository
and submit the fingerprints to the Federal Bureau of Investigation
for a search of Federal criminal history files. The results of the
Federal Bureau of Investigation check will be returned to the MSHP,
which will provide the State and national results to the City.
C. The City shall render a fitness determination based upon the results
of the criminal background check. In rendering a fitness determination,
the City will decide whether the applicant has been convicted of or
is under pending indictment for a crime which bears upon his or her
ability or fitness to serve or act in the capacity for which he or
she has applied, including but not limited to any felony or misdemeanor
which involved force or threat of force, dishonesty, a controlled
substance, or a sex-related offense.
D. An applicant may request and receive a copy of his or her criminal
history record information from the City. If the applicant believes
that the information contained in the criminal history record is not
correct, the burden is on the applicant to amend or correct his or
her record.
E. All criminal record check information shall be confidential, and
any person who discloses the information beyond the scope allowed
herein is guilty of a violation of a Missouri Class A misdemeanor.
F. Every applicant who is required to submit to a fingerprint check
pursuant to this Section may pay to the City the actual fee paid by
the City to the MSHP for performing the fingerprint check.
