*   Editors Note: Ord. No. 10294, § 1, adopted June 27, 2006, amended the title of ch. 22 to read as herein set out. Prior to inclusion of said ordinance, ch. 22 was entitled, "Pensions, Retirement and Group Insurance." It should be noted that said ordinance is effective June 20, 2006.
The 1953 Code, ch. 20, §§ 1--24, provided for pensions and retirement. These sections were repealed by Ord. No. 1420, § 1, enacted Nov. 30, 1953. Terms and conditions of the repeal, appearing as ch. 20, §§ 25 and 26 in the 1957 supplement to the 1953 Code, have not been included in this Code because fully executed and rights thereunder are guarantee by the present supplement retirement systems, § 22-34 et seq.
