§22.1027 Final Action

The City Manager or other appointing authority shall determine if, based on the factual findings of the hearing officer(s), the employee has violated Charter Section 129.1. The City Manager or other appointing authority, upon receiving the hearing officer(s) report, shall have the discretion to ask the hearing officer(s) to make further finding in response to specific questions. Employees charged under this section who do not initially contest the charges, abandon their hearing rights prior to the conclusion of the hearing, or are found to have violated Charter Section 129.1 shall be immediately dismissed. Such action of the appointing authority is final and shall not be appealable. Such dismissed employee shall not be reinstated or returned to employment. However, he or she may be rehired, at some future date, as a new employee. Such employment as a new employee shall be in accordance with the employment practices then in effect.
