Any conflicting Charter provision is repealed by reference. (Nov. 3, 1987)

(e) No person who has been removed from office by recall or removed pursuant to Sections 81 or 82 of this Charter, or who has resigned from office after a petition for recall has been filed with the City Clerk, shall be eligible to be elected or appointed to any office within two years after such removal or resignation.
