Assignment to the "Drug Task Force Unit" shall have no effect upon the rank of the officer so assigned. While assigned to the Drug Task Force Unit, the officer will retain his or her former rank while so assigned and after being returned to regular duty unless otherwise promoted pursuant to the Rules and the city Police Merit Board. However, while assigned to the Drug Task Force Unit, the officer shall receive pay equivalent to the pay received by investigators. This pay shall continue only so long as the officer is assigned to the Drug Task Force Unit and the officer's pay shall return to the pay normally received by his or her rank upon return to regular duty.
