159.09 DETERMINATION OF VACATION AND LONGEVITY; VACATION SCHEDULE.
   (a)    All annual vacations and extra days for longevity shall be figured on the basis of the calendar year beginning on January l. Annual leave shall not be cumulative and therefore must be taken in the year that the annual vacation and extra days shall have accrued. In special and meritorious cases where to so limit the annual leave during any one calendar year would work a peculiar hardship, it may be extended at the discretion of the Director of Public Service and Safety. Further, the Director shall determine whether or not an individual is entitled to the status of being in the class of one who has served an uninterrupted period as hereinbefore provided.
(Ord. 37-1975. Passed 5-15-75; Ord. 24-2019. Passed 12-17-19.)
   (b)    The Director of Public Service and Safety, Chief of Police and Fire Chief shall designate the time within the year for the vacations of the individual employees in their respective departments, and file a vacation schedule for the employees with the Auditor on or before March 1 of each year and conform with the schedule as far as practicable. In the event changes are made in the schedule, the Auditor shall be notified of the changes.
