Carmel-by-the-Sea Municipal Code Art. VII Separations

Separations from City service include: resignation, failure to achieve regular status during the training and observation period, dismissal, and layoff.

(Ord. 87-1 § 2, 1987)

This is a voluntary separation of an employee. In order for an employee to leave City service in good standing, a written, signed resignation must be submitted to the employee's department manager at least two weeks in advance of the employee-designated separation date. With a department Manager's agreement, less than two weeks is acceptable. A resignation shall be effective on the date designated therein and if no date is designated, effective immediately. A written resignation is final upon receipt by an employee's department manager and may not be withdrawn except by authorization of the City Administrator when it is deemed that the City's best interests are served by so doing.

(Ord. 87-1 § 2, 1987)

This is an involuntary separation of an at-will employee for failing to satisfactorily complete the training and observation period.

(Ord. 87-1 § 2, 1987)

This is an involuntary separation of an employee.

(Ord. 87-1 § 2, 1987)

This is an involuntary separation of an employee from a class of position, and from City service if the employee cannot or does not wish to be placed in a lower class of position. Layoff occurs without prejudice and without fault on the employee's part for any or all of the following reasons: abolition of position; curtailment in funds; interest of economy; modification or reduction of service requirements; displacement by another employee with greater layoff rights as defined by the City Council.

(Ord. 87-1 § 2, 1987)

In the event that layoff is necessary, the City Administrator, in advance of layoffs, will develop a layoff procedure which will require approval by the City Council.
