This bill, introduced by Representative Mike Johnson, amends the civil service system for employees of the city of Alexandria by enacting a new provision that excludes certain employees from the classified civil service. Specifically, it adds a new category under Paragraph (A)(12) of Section 1 of Act No. 487 of the 1954 Regular Session, which states that employees who provide city computer operations—including services related to municipal information systems, electronic security systems, and other technology designed to protect sensitive information—will not be subject to the provisions regarding appointment, promotion, and dismissal that apply to classified service employees.

The bill aims to ensure that the city can effectively manage its information technology and security operations without the constraints of the classified civil service system. This change is intended to enhance the city's ability to respond to vulnerabilities and protect sensitive information, thereby fostering a more secure and efficient operational environment within the city's administration.
