Knox, Jr. Cit , ttorney June 9, 1980 Ordinance Amending Ordi- nance #8977 Due to Scrivener's Error (1) An earlier Ordinance (#8310) which amended the Civil Ser- vice Rules and Regulations in 1974 erroneously used the word "application" in referring to the base or reference date for computing seniority in promotional situations for classified Civil Service employees. The correct word, which was contained in the original ordinance (#6945) establishing the Civil Service Rules and Regulations in 1961, was "appointment" and was reflected in the follow- ing sentence: "Seniority shall be computed as of the date of original appointment according to the follow- ing table:..." [emphasis supplied]. During October, 1974 the error was discovered by the Office of the Civil Service Board and a request was made to for- mally correct the error; however, the request, through inadvertence, was never acted upon. A subsequent'ordi- nance (#8977), which was adopted July 24, 1979, contained and perpetuated the error. The herein proposed ordinance will correct the scrivener's error which erroneously trans- posed the word -"appointment" to the incorrect word "appli- cation". No other changes are reflected in the attached proposed amendment. GFK/RFC/rr cc: Joseph R. Grassie City Manager Judy S.
