(a) If a person is on sick leave and his/her accrued credit has been fully depleted, hospitalization insurance normally paid by the Village automatically stops; however, such person has the option of requesting a leave of absence from the Council, renewable for periods of six months at a time.
(b) If a person employed by the Village requests, and is granted, a leave of absence for whatever reason, the person has the option of continuing hospitalization coverage by picking up the entire premium for hospitalization insurance normally paid by the Village.
