AMENDING PERSONNEL RULE 7, APPOINTMENTS AND PROMOTIONS
AND RESCINDING RESOLUTION NO. 76R -180, AND AMENDING
RESOLUTION NO. 63R -910.
WHEREAS, the Personnel Director has met and conferred with officials
and employee representatives of recognized employee organizations to discuss
wages and hours of work, and
WHEREAS, as a result thereof, the need exists to rescind Resolu-
tion No. 76R -180, and amend Resolution No. 63R -910, Personnel Rule 7, which
established Appointments and Promotions provisions, and,
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Anaheim does find that
adoption of the recommended new provisions are in the best interests of

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the City Council of the City
of Anaheim that Resolution No. 76R -180, Personnel Rule 7 be rescinded and
Resolution No. 63R -910, Personnel Rule 7, Appointments and Promotions, be
amended to read as follows:
RULE 7. APPOINTMENTS AND PROMOTIONS
Section 7.0 Appointments to vacant positions in the classified service shall
be based on merit and fitness as determined by the competitive examinations
and /or evaluations. Minimum standards of employment for 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. Promotions
shall be on a competitive basis except when the Personnel Director finds that
the number of employees qualified for promotion is insufficient to justify compe-
tition. Appropriate consideration shall be given to promotional candidates'
qualifications, record of performance, and seniority, in that order.
7.11 Advancement to a higher paid job class shall constitute a
promotion.
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 quali-
fications 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 disability, except where sex, age, or lack of physical dis-
ability is a bonafide 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 establishment of a promo-
tional eligibility list, the list shall rank the 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 eligibi-
lity 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 ap-
pointment, 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 evalua-
tions. 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 exami-
nations and /or evaluations and is not appointed to a city funded position,
during his period of employment under the grant, said grant funded appointee
shall be terminated from City employment.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that except to the extent amended Resolution
No. 63R -910 shall remain in full force and effect.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the effective date of this resolution
shall be December 9, 1977.
ATTEST:
THE FOREGOING RESOLUTION is approved and signed by me on this
13th day of December 1977.
