Proposed Civil Service Change to Section S.G, Pensioners
This proposed rule change, to allow School District employees only to be rehired as
temporary employees by the City while receiving pensions, was brought to our attention
on 7uly 11, 1995.
It is on the consent calendar for the City Council meeting on July 12, 1995. The Civil
Service Commission has not had the opportunity to obtain much background information
on this issue. We are concerned that there may be some inherent problems in
administering this rule change and the effect it could have on the Civil Service System.
It is our recommendation to the City Council that this item be taken off the consent
calendar and be placed on the regular calendar for further discussion of this issue.
