each job class shall be recommended by the Personnel Director and approved
by the City Manager.
Section 7.1 Vacancies in positions above the entrance level shall be filled
by promotion whenever one or more qualified candidates are available.

to justify competition. Appropriate consideration shall be given to
promotional candidates' qualifications, record of performance, and senior-
ity, in that order.

series shall constitute a promotion.
7.12 Promotional series shall be determined by the appropriate
department head and the Personnel Director with approval
by the City Manager,
Section 7.2 Examinations for appointments and, promotions shall be in such
form as will fairly test the abilities and aptitudes of candidates for the
duties to be performed, so that such appointments and promotions will be
solely based on qualifications without regard to race, color, national
origin, religious or political affiliation or belief, membership in or
attitude toward any employee organization, sex, age, or physical dis-
ability, except where sex, age, or lack of physical disability is a
bona fide occupational qualification.
Section 7.3 Candidates who qualify for employment or promotion shall be
placed on an eligibility list for the appropriate job class. At such
times as a department management evaluation is included in the estab-
lishment of a promotional eligibility list, the list shall rank the
4,
eligible candidates in the order of final evaluation, and appointments
from that list shall normally follow rank order.
Section 7.4 When an appointment is to be made to a vacancy, the Personnel
Director shall submit to the appropriate department head the names on the
appropriate employment list. Appointments to vacant positions shall be
made by the appropriate department head, with the concurrence of the
Personnel Director.
7.41 The appropriate department head, with the concurrence
of the Personnel Director, may order names removed
from an eligibility list for good and sufficient reasons.
Section 7.5 Any appointment or promotion to a department head position
shall be made by the City Manager with the approval of the City Council.
Section 7.6 In the absence of appropriate employment lists, a provisional
appointment may be made by the appropriate department head (with the approval
of the Personnel Director and the City Manager)- of a person meeting the
minimum qualifications for the position. An eligibility list shall be
established within six months for any regular, full-time position filled by
provisional appointment. In the event that any provisional appointee fails
to qualify on the eligibility list as established within six months of his
provisional appointment, said provisional appointee shall have his employment
terminated at the close of the first complete biweekly pay period following
the establishing of the eligibility list.
Section 7.7 Appointments to certain grant funded positions as designated
by the City Manager may be made without competitive examinations and/or
evaluations. Such appointments may be made by the appropriate department
head (with the approval of the Personnel Director and the City Manager).
In the event that a grant funded appointee fails to complete competitive
examinations and/or evaluations and is not appointed to a city funded position,
during his period of employment under the grant, said grant funded appointee
