[Amended 5-29-2001 by Ord. No. 14-2001; 2-12-2007 by Ord. No. 11-2007]
Members of the Department whose names appear on the eligibility list as certified by the Civil Service Board shall, if passed over in the appointment, remain on the eligibility list in the position as indicated by their total score for a period of two years after the date the list is officially certified. If a member of the Department is passed over three times, his or her name shall be removed from the list. A member is considered to be passed over on each separate occasion when a person(s) whose name(s) appear(s) below him or her on the eligibility list is appointed before he or she is appointed. If at any time three or fewer names appear on the eligibility list in effect under this Part, the Mayor may terminate the list and require the Civil Service Board to conduct retesting.
