Subject: Examaming Board
Trish,
We would like the City Council to select a person for the Examining Board. I have copied from the Code of Iowa
the following about the Examining Board. I don't think it is mandatory that a person be appointed at a City
Council meeting but it would probably be nice if it was on your record as well as the Conference Board records.
Please notice the person appointed would have to be a resident of the City of Dubuque.
441.3 Examining board.
At a regular meeting of the conference board each voting unit of the conference board shall appoint
one person who is a resident of the assessor jurisdiction to serve as a member of an examining board to
hold an examination for the positions of assessor or deputy assessor. This examining board shall
i.
organize as soon as possible after its appointment with a chairperson and secretary. All its necessary
expenditures shall be paid as provided. Members of the board shall serve without compensation. The
terms of each shall be for six years.
[C46, §405.1; C50, 54, 58, §405.1, 405A.2, 441.3; C62, 66, 71, 73, 75, 77, 79, 81, §441.3]
88 Acts, ch 1043, §1
�W
441.6 Appointment of assessor. ;
When a vacancy occurs in the office of city or county assessor, the examining board shall, within
seven days of the occurrence of the vacancy, request the director of revenue to forward a register
containing the names of all individuals eligible for appointment as assessor. The examining board may,
at its own expense, conduct a further examination, either written or oral, of any person whose name
appears on the register, and shall make written report of the examination and submit the report together
with the names of those individuals certified by the director of revenue to the conference board within
fifteen days after the receipt of the register from the director of revenue.
Upon receipt of the report of the examining board, the chairperson of the conference board shall by 4
written notice call a meeting of the conference board to appoint an assessor. The meeting shall be held
not later than seven days after the receipt of the report of the examining board by the conference board.
At the meeting, the conference board shall appoint an assessor from the register of eligible candidates.
However, if a special examination has not been conducted previously for the same vacancy,the
conference board may request the director of revenue to hold a special examination pursuant to section
441.7. The chairperson of the conference board shall give written notice to the director of revenue of the
appointment and its effective date within ten days of the decision of the board.
