§ 2-29.2 - Resignation.
An employee who intends to resign shall present the reasons therefor in writing to the city not less than 14 calendar days prior to the effective date of the resignation. Once an employee's notice of resignation has been accepted by the city, the employee shall not have the right to withdraw the resignation, unless the department head, in his or her sole discretion, consents to the withdrawal of the resignation in writing. An employee who submits a written resignation shall not have the right to appeal the decision of a department head not to allow withdrawal of the resignation.
Any non-bargaining unit employee who does not fully comply with the provision for written notice for intended resignation stated herein shall forfeit any and all accumulated leave time and shall not receive payment for any unused accrued leave. The City Manager, City Attorney, or City Auditor, in their sole discretion, may waive this penalty when an employee employed in their respective offices or otherwise under their respective authority demonstrates extenuating circumstances that do not reasonably allow the employee to comply with written notice at least 14 calendar days prior to the date of resignation.
The City Manager, City Attorney, or City Auditor, in their sole discretion, may provide a payment in an amount not greater than 30 days of compensation to a non-bargaining unit employee who has provided written notice of resignation.
