(65 ILCS 5/10-1-4) (from Ch. 24, par. 10-1-4)
Sec. 10-1-4.
Persons transferred from the employment of a park district by
virtue of "An Act in relation to the exchange of certain functions,
property and personnel among cities, and park districts having coextensive
geographic areas and populations in excess of 500,000," approved July 5,
1957, as heretofore and hereafter amended, shall, without examination, be
assigned to positions in the classified civil service of the municipality,
so far as may be practicable, having duties and responsibilities equivalent
to their park district employment. For the purpose of establishing the
civil service status of park policemen transferred to the municipality, any
rank above the rank of captain shall not be recognized.
As provided in said Act of 1957, the eligible registers and reemployment
registers of the park district civil service board as to positions and
persons so transferred shall remain in force and effect as eligible and
reemployment registers of the civil service commission, subject to the
authority of the commission, in its discretion, to cancel such eligible
registers, or portions thereof, as have been in force more than 2 years.
Employees so transferred shall have the same standing, grade, class or
rank which they held in the classified service of the park district from
which they were transferred. For the purpose of determining seniority in
class, grade or rank, each employee shall be credited with the time served
by him in the employment held by him on the date of such transfer.
If this Division 1 exempts from its provisions any position held by an
employee transferred under said Act of 1957, to the municipality, the
employee so transferred shall be given a position in the classified civil
service as nearly comparable in responsibilities and duties to his former
employment as it may be possible to approximate.
