| ||||
| ||||
AN ACT concerning local government.
| ||||
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
| ||||
represented in the General Assembly:
| ||||
Section 5. The Metropolitan Water Reclamation District Act | ||||
is amended by changing Section 4.11 as follows:
| ||||
(70 ILCS 2605/4.11) (from Ch. 42, par. 323.11)
| ||||
Sec. 4.11. Appointments.
Whenever a position classified | ||||
under this Act is to be
filled, except the positions of deputy | ||||
chief engineer, assistant chief
engineers, deputy attorney, | ||||
head assistant attorneys, assistant
director of research and | ||||
development, assistant director of information
technology, | ||||
comptroller, assistant treasurer, assistant
purchasing agent, | ||||
assistant director of personnel, and laborers, the appointing
| ||||
officer shall make requisition upon the Director, and the | ||||
Director shall
certify to him from the register of eligibles | ||||
for the position the names
and addresses (a) of the five | ||||
candidates standing highest upon the register
of eligibles for | ||||
the position, or (b) of the candidates within the highest
| ||||
ranking group upon the register of eligibles if the register is | ||||
by categories
such as excellent, well qualified, and qualified, | ||||
provided, however, that
any certification shall consist of at | ||||
least 5 names, if available. The
Director shall certify names | ||||
from succeeding categories in the order of
excellence of the | ||||
categories until at least 5 names are provided to the
| ||
appointing officer. The appointing officer
shall notify the | ||
Director of each position to be filled separately and
shall | ||
fill the position by appointment of one of the persons | ||
certified
to him by the Director. Appointments shall be on | ||
probation for a period to
be fixed by the rules, not exceeding | ||
one year. At any time during the
period of probation, the | ||
appointing officer with the approval of the
Director may | ||
discharge a person so certified and shall forthwith notify
the | ||
civil service board in writing of this discharge. If a person | ||
is
not discharged, his appointment shall be deemed complete.
| ||
When there is no eligible list, the appointing officer may, | ||
with the
authority of the Director, make a temporary | ||
appointment to remain in
force only until a permanent | ||
appointment from an eligible register or
list can be made in | ||
the manner specified in the previous provisions of
this | ||
Section, and examinations to supply an eligible list therefor | ||
shall
be held and an eligible list established therefrom within | ||
one year from
the making of such appointment. The acceptance or | ||
refusal by an eligible person of a temporary appointment does | ||
not affect his standing on the register for permanent | ||
appointment.
| ||
In employment of an essentially
temporary and transitory | ||
nature, the appointing officer may, with the
authority of the | ||
Director of Personnel make temporary appointments to
fill a | ||
vacancy. No temporary appointment of an essentially temporary | ||
and
transitory nature may be granted for a period of
more than | ||
119 consecutive or non-consecutive working
120 days per | ||
calendar year
and is not subject to renewal. The Director must
| ||
include in his annual report, and if required by the | ||
commissioners, in
any special report, a statement of all | ||
temporary authorities granted
during the year or period | ||
specified by the commissioners, together with
a statement of | ||
the facts in each case because of which the authority was
| ||
granted.
| ||
The acceptance or refusal by an eligible person of a | ||
temporary
appointment does not affect his standing on the | ||
register for permanent
appointment.
| ||
All laborers shall be appointed by the General | ||
Superintendent and shall
be on probation for a period to be | ||
fixed by the rules, not exceeding one year.
| ||
The deputy chief engineer, assistant chief engineers, | ||
deputy
attorney, head assistant attorneys, assistant director | ||
of research and
development, assistant director of information | ||
technology, comptroller,
assistant treasurer, assistant | ||
purchasing agent, and assistant director of personnel shall be
| ||
appointed by the General Superintendent upon the | ||
recommendation of
the respective department head and shall be | ||
on probation for a period
to be fixed by the rules, not | ||
exceeding two years. At any time during
the period of | ||
probation, the General Superintendent on the
recommendation of | ||
the department head concerned, may discharge a person
so | ||
appointed and he shall forthwith notify the Civil Service Board | ||
in
writing of such discharge. If a person is not so discharged, | ||
his
appointment shall be deemed complete under the laws | ||
governing the
classified civil service.
