§ 15-5-112(b), the legislature referred to the city’s notice of discharge as a “request”; directed that no employee discharge or reduction in grade or compensation can become final without commission “consent”; and gave the commission power to investigate and hold hearings on the disciplinary matters. [¶31] The statutory scheme demonstrates that the commission is not an independent agency that reviews the city’s final employment decision; instead, it plays an integral role in making employment decisions. The commission is, in all respects, the final decision maker for the city on department employment matters. The commission’s action is, in effect, the city’s action. In other words, the commission is acting for the city itself. See City of Jackson v. Little, 245 So.2d 204 (Miss. 1971) (<HOLDING>). Compare Crofts v. State ex rel. Dep’t of Game
