Wisconsin Statutes Municipalities (Ch. 59 to 68) § 63.36. Appointment of examiners; compensation

(1) The board shall control all examinations, and may, whenever an examination is to take place, designate a suitable number of persons, either in or not in the official service of the city, to be examiners, and the examiners shall make return or report of the examination to the board. The board may, at any time, substitute any other person, whether or not in the official service of the city, in the place of anyone so selected. The board may themselves, at any time, act as examiners under this section without appointing examiners. The examiners, at any examination, shall not all be members of the same political party. No person shall serve in an examination of a candidate for office under ss. 63.18 to 63.53 who is a relative or connected by marriage within the degree of first cousin.

(2) Persons in the service of the city shall not be compensated for acting as examiners if they are public officers or if their service as examiners is rendered during their paid working schedule, but the board may compensate employees of the board of school directors for serving as city service examiners beyond their regular working hours and beyond their regular duties as such employees.
