REINSTATEMENT FOLLOWING RESIGNATION. A non-probationary bargaining unit employee who resigns voluntarily and chooses to request reinstatement within ninety (90) days of termination may be granted reinstatement to a vacant and available position if the City approves. The reinstated employee will receive the available position if the City approves. The reinstated employee will receive the vacation and sick leave accrual rates which applied at the date of termination. No leave balances will be restored. This section will not operate to require the City to fill a vacant position which the City has elected to hold vacant. An employee/former employee may not request reinstatement under this section more than once.
