(Prior code § 2008.1; Ord. 26850.)

No change, substantial or insubstantial, in specific assignments or in specific duties of the same position, shall be deemed to be a transfer, but such changes shall be governed by the provisions of Section 3.04.470.

Transfers within the same classification shall not be subject to the probationary period provisions of Part 7 of this chapter.

(Prior code § 2008.4; Ord. 26850.)

In the event an officer or employee of the city who heretofore held or now holds a position in the classified service was thereafter or is hereafter appointed to a position in the unclassified service, and should subsequently be removed or resign from the unclassified service, he/she shall have the right, if he/she has not been guilty of infamous, disgraceful or dishonest conduct, to be employed forthwith in a position consonant with his/her former classification in the classified service without loss of any rights or privileges and upon the same terms and conditions as if he/she had remained in said classification.

(Prior code § 2008.5; Ord. 26850.)

Whenever it shall be necessary pursuant to Section 3.04.1080 above for the city manager to transfer a person from the unclassified service to the classified service, the city manager may make available for such person a position consonant with his former classification without loss of any rights or privileges and upon the same terms and conditions as if he/she had remained in said classification, it being understood that Part 9 of this chapter pertaining to layoff procedures, or the applicable provisions in a memorandum of agreement or understanding entered into by the city and a recognized employee organization pertaining to layoff procedures, shall apply to said person immediately upon his/her transfer from the unclassified service to the classified service. If any person is displaced from his/her position due to the city manager's decision to transfer a person from the unclassified service to the classified service pursuant to Section 3.04.1080, the provisions set forth in Part 9 of this chapter pertaining to layoff procedures or the applicable provisions in a memorandum of agreement or understanding entered into by the city and a recognized employee organization pertaining to layoff procedures shall apply to said displaced persons.
