A. All appointive officer positions set forth in this chapter, or as this chapter may be in the future amended, shall be exempt from civil service and exempt from the jurisdiction of the Civil Service Board, as provided under Article VIII of the Everett City Charter. Employees going from civil service positions to appointive positions retain rights back to their former civil service classification. If that classification no longer exists or has been removed from civil service, the right to return to civil service classification shall be to a comparable class that the employee is qualified for or in the highest classification in the series still under civil service, depending on which, in the opinion of the mayor, is more appropriate.

B. Any appointive officer whose status changes within the ranks of appointive officers because of reorganization shall not have their fringe benefits reduced by that action.

C. Minor variations in the above title designations by the administration within the intent of the title designations herein are authorized. (Ord. 857-82, 1982.)
