This is Centreville Police Department Directive 4.5 (Job Function Change or Reassignment), issued and revised 10/1/2016 and approved by Chief Charles M. Rhodes, Jr. It defines “job function change” (major shifts in scope/responsibility, includes promotions except Officer→Officer First Class and Officer First Class→Corporal) and “reassignment” (a permanent internal job function change), and confirms the Chief’s authority to assign, reassign, allocate and reallocate personnel (civilian transfers follow Town rules). It requires reassignment requests be submitted as a detailed, typed or legibly printed report in black ink specifying the requested division and the applicant’s background, that requests be sent to the Chief when vacancies arise and placed in the employee’s personnel file after review, and states selection is primarily the Chief’s prerogative with consideration given to performance record, academic credentials, an interview, and departmental needs.
