§ 3-519. UNCLASSIFIED EMPLOYEES.

Any person while employed by the city, who was considered to be excluded by ordinance from membership in the Retirement System, because the person was in a full-time position in the unclassified service, as defined by the city's Civil Service rules or in a full-time position listed in section 3-518(2), shall receive credit for service rendered by the person while in such unclassified service or position and was so considered, with the same effect as if the person had never been considered not to be a member, provided that the person becomes a member of the Retirement System without a break in service. Each such employee, prior to receiving credit for such service, shall pay to the System, at times and in a manner fixed by the Retirement Board, but in any event prior to retirement, (1) contributions equal to the contributions the employee would have been made if the employee had never been so considered not to be a member, plus (2) interest at the rate fixed by the board hereafter, compounded monthly, on contributions so payable, which remain unpaid, from time to time. (Added Ord. 5313, 1958, based on former Sec. 2-813.1; Am. Ord. 5666, 1959; Am. Ord. 2001-32, § 3, eff. 5-10-01).
