(70 ILCS 1210/3b) (from Ch. 24 1/2, par. 81.1)
Sec. 3b.
Persons transferred from the employment of a city by virtue of "An
Act in relation to an exchange of certain functions, property and personnel
among cities, and park districts having coextensive geographic areas and
populations in excess of 500,000," enacted by the 70th General Assembly,
shall, without examination, be assigned to positions in the classified
civil service of the park district, so far as may be practicable, having
duties and responsibilities, equivalent to the employment from which they
were transferred.
As provided in said Act, the eligible registers and re-employment
registers of the civil service commission of the city as to positions and
persons so transferred shall remain in force and effect as eligible and
re-employment registers of the Civil Service Board of the park district,
subject to the authority of the Board, in its discretion, to cancel such
eligible registers, or portions thereof, as have been in force more than
two years.
Employees so transferred shall have the same standing, grade, class or
rank which they held in the classified service of the city. For the purpose
of determining seniority in class, grade or rank, each employee shall be
certified with the time served by him in the employment held by him on the
date of such transfer.
If this Act exempts from its provisions any position held by an employee
transferred under said Act of the 70th General Assembly to the park
district, 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.
