Phase Down. The purpose of the Phase Down Program (“PDP” or “Phase Down”) is two-fold. First, it provides Officers with the opportunity to receive payment of leave balances over time rather than in one lump sum payment. Secondly, Phase Down gives the City advance notice of an Officer’s decision to terminate employment, which will afford the City the opportunity to better provide for future public safety staffing needs. Phase Down does not affect, in any manner, other City policies except as noted in this Article. Chapter 34 of the Dallas City Code imposes certain limitations on the amount of leave that is available to be paid to employees, based on the employee’s position and hire date. All of these provisions continue to apply to all Officers who do not participate in Phase Down.
