(c) When a holiday falls on a Saturday, the holiday shall be observed on the preceding day, Friday. When a holiday falls on a Sunday, the holiday shall be observed on the following day, Monday.
(d) Village employees shall be given the day off, with pay, on all observed holidays. As it is necessary to provide services on holidays within the Police Department, on January 1 annually, or upon the first date of service for a Police Department employee during the calendar year, a Police Department employee shall be credited with holiday time equal to eight (8) hours of his or her regular pay for holidays scheduled during the calendar year, or during the balance of the calendar year after employment. This holiday time may be taken by a police employee at any time during the calendar year upon the request of the employee to the Chief of Police, which request will be reviewed, and approved if appropriate, considering scheduling for all employees. No holiday time may be accumulated to be carried over from one calendar year to another, and any holiday time which has not been used during the calendar year shall be paid to the Police Department employee during the last month of the calendar year, issued as a separate compensation payment. This additional compensation shall be equivalent to the employee's then hourly rate times eight (8) hours per day times the number of holidays to be credited and paid. If an employee of the Police Department shall separate from service by resignation, retirement or other involuntary termination then that employee shall forfeit and not be entitled to receive any accumulated, but unused holiday compensation for the remainder of the calendar year. If at the time of separation from service an employee has been credited and used holiday time in excess of the actual calendar holidays as recognized above at the time of separation, then the excess holiday time used shall be deducted from any accumulated but unused vacation time due to be paid under Section 131.03
(e) herein.
