(a) The establishment of the Police Pension Fund shall not be construed as conferring any legal rights upon any police employee or other person to a continuation of employment, nor shall it interfere with the rights of the Borough to discharge any police employee or to treat him or her without regard to the effect which such treatment might have upon him or her as a member of the Fund.
(b) Any participant who has been granted a leave of absence by Borough Council may retain a continuous membership in the Fund (for purpose of pension eligibility date), provided that while on leave of absence he or she regularly makes a contribution to the Fund in the amount that would be deducted from his or her pay if he or she were on active duty. This provision likewise applies where any member is prevented by injury or illness from performing his or her regular duties as long as he/she is still a full-time police officer and a member of the Fund.
