It is recognized by the parties to this agreemeiat that effects detri— mental ta the city and its employees flow from these permanent personnel reductions. In order to minimize these detrimental effec�s, the parties have agreed to establish an i�ncentive program to facilitate reinstatement of emplopees who would have otherwise been without employinent on January 29, 1.982, by encourag�,ng voluntary retirement of city employees who meet eligibility requirements. � The pa'rties agree to the incentive program sub3ect to the following specif ic conditions: 1) The City.of Saint Paul shall pay to any member af this bargaining uni�, who meets the requiremeats for voluntary � retirement and who agrees to retire withia the� dates set forth be3ow, an incentive of up to $5,a0Q provided that such retir�ent leads in an unbroken causal cliain to the Yeinsfiate.ment of an employee who would otherwise be without employment on January 29, 1982, as a result of the permanent personnel x�eductions. •� � ' � . . � Z - 2) The incentive shall be available to any eligibZe employee during the period of January 29, 1982, to April 3U, 1932, inclusive.

If there is a delay between the employee's desired retirement date and the actual retirement date, and if such delay is caused by circumstances outside the emp2oyee's control, the date of retirement, for purposes of - calculatir�g the amount of the incentive, shall be the date the employee desired to retire.
