Mr. Dennis Stowe testified that he was the Manager of the Waste
Water Treatment Plant , and that he was the supervisor of Mr. Barrie
who is Mr . Robinson 's immediate s upervisor. He stated that it was
his opinion, in view of the documentation submitted to him that Mr .
Robinson's employment should be terminated . He agreed with Mr.
Buescher that he did not have personal knowledge of any of the
alleged violations of safety and repair procedures. He supervised Mr.
Barrie who documented the violations.
Randie L. Barthlome testified that the case had been brought to her
attention by Mr. Barrie , Mr. Payne and Mr. Stowe, who recommended
that Mr. Robinson's employment be terminated. Ms. Barthlome
suggested that he be demoted in light of his many years of service to
the City. Because Mr. Robinson had asked for a second opinion on the
psychological examination, there had been a delay in pursuing the
case.
Mr . Robinson testified that there were extenuating circumstances in
the accidents , and he had not been aware of some of the
requirements for repair and safe t y. He said his evaluations had been
acceptable until recently, and that he normally followed safety
