the Office of Human Resources who hold positions allocated to Human Resources Consultant I, II, and III and

shall continue to be used in the administration of this pilot project:
Civil Service Rule 6.B (Examination Contents) shall allow qualifying examinarions, e.g., pass/fail

Any grievances arising from alleged violations of the procedures established in said pilot project shall also
be subject to the aforementioned grievance procedure. However, because both parties acknowledge that
the City retains its inherent managerial rights to evaluate and select staff, any concems regarding the
substanrive determinations of the Competency Review Panel shall be appealed to the Civil Service
