Whenever requested by the appointing authority of any department, or upon its own motion, the Council by order or resolution may grant authority for:
(a) The employment of personnel in cases where no department personnel authority exists provided that the class of position in which such employment is to be made is contained in Schedule “A”; provided, however, that any such order or resolution may, by its terms be made to take effect at the beginning of the next ensuing fiscal year from its adoption, but in no event shall such order or resolution be effective for any purpose beyond the end of this said ensuing fiscal year.
(b) The filling of any position in conformity with the provisions of any department personnel ordinance or any amendment thereto pending the effective date of such ordinance or amendment, provided that such position is included in one of the classes of positions contained in Schedule “A”.
Such employment authorization shall, before it becomes effective, be presented to the Mayor for the Mayor’s approval and the Mayor’s signature if the Mayor approves it; if not, the Mayor shall endorse thereon the date of presentation to the Mayor, and return it to the Council with the Mayor’s objections in writing.
