The board may make investigations on its own initiative, or at the direction of
the mayor or legislative body of the city, or upon the petition of an employee in
the classified service, or of any person on a list kept by the board, concerning
the enforcement or violation of or operation under KRS 90.110 to 90.230. In the
course of any investigation under the provisions of KRS 90.110 to 90.230, each
member of the board shall have the power to administer oaths, and the board
is authorized and empowered to subpoena and require the attendance of
witnesses and the production by them of books, papers, records and other
documentary evidence pertinent to such investigation. In the event that any
person should fail or refuse to appear under such subpoena, or to testify, or to
attend, or produce the books, papers, records, or other documentary evidence
lawfully required, the board may report to the Circuit Court or any judge
thereof, such failure or refusal, and apply for a rule, and the Circuit Court, or
any judge thereof, may, on such application of the board, compel obedience by
proceedings for contempt as in the case of disobedience of the requirements of
a subpoena issued from such court.
The board shall perform such other functions as may relate to the efficiency of
the personnel under its jurisdiction, including the maintenance of the personnel
classification plan, the administration of service ratings, attendance records,
training programs, promotions, transfers, lay-offs, suspensions, reinstatements
and related activities, and shall prepare appropriate rules for the administration
thereof, but such enumeration is not exclusive of other proper functions or
activities of the board.
The board shall receive, review and correct, if necessary, and transmit
promptly to the mayor and the legislative body of the city, the annual report of
the director. Such report of the director may be supplemented by any additional
comment, criticism or suggestions for the more effectual accomplishment of the
purposes of KRS 90.110 to 90.230, that the board may care to submit.
