(A) Any employee occupying a regular position may request a transfer from one position to another comparable position, provided the position to which the employee is transferred is one for which he or she possesses the appropriate minimum qualifications, and provided that the position applied for is vacant. The request must be submitted in writing to the supervisor.
(B) A full-time employee occupying a regular position shall be given consideration for the transfer; however, if the County Judge/Executive deems that the best interests of the county necessitate the appointment of an applicant not currently employed by the county, the position may be filled by appointment of a person from outside the government.
