(A) From the results of each entry-level and promotional examination, the Personnel Director shall prepare and certify an eligible list for the positions for which the examination was conducted. All candidates receiving a passing score on the examination are to be ranked on the eligible list in the order of their total scores. In the event two or more candidates receive the same total score on the examination, they shall be placed in the same position on the eligible list and the tie shall be noted.
(B) Reemployment.
(1) In the event it becomes necessary to lay off city employees for any reason, the names of the persons laid off shall be placed on a reemployment eligible list for the classification involved. The names on the list shall be ranked in order of classification seniority and each name shall remain on the list for a maximum period of one year (except as provided in division (2) below) unless such eligibility is extended by the Personnel Director.
(2) Each name on a reemployment eligible list for the classification of police officer, crime prevention officer, or dispatcher shall remain on such list for a maximum period of 15 months unless the eligibility is extended by the Personnel Director.
(C) All other eligible lists shall be valid for a minimum period of one year from the original date of certification unless exhausted prior to that time. The validity of such lists may be extended for an additional period, up to one year, by order of the Personnel Director.
