§ 2-91. Ordinance required for new positions; notification of reclassification.

(a)

No position shall be created for any employee, whether full- or part-time, after the budget has been passed by the Common Council, unless an ordinance is passed by the Common Council approving such new position(s) and its funding source(s). The Mayor shall be responsible for filing such an ordinance for Council consideration. If said position is created after the passage of the budget, and if an ordinance as required by law has not been presented for Council consideration, the Mayor shall be considered in violation of this section.

(b)

The Mayor shall give written notice to all members of the Common Council and its attorney of all employee reclassifications. Reclassification, for purposes of this section, shall mean any position whose duties, and/or title, and/or salary or wages have been affected due to reorganization, updating job descriptions, consolidation or expansion of positions. Said notification shall be given on a monthly basis and should identify the funding change and funding source. If notice is not received as provided by this section, the Mayor shall be considered in violation of it.

(c)

Alleged violations of this section may be investigated by the Common Council pursuant to IC 36-4-6-21.
