Sec. 2-212. Continuation of employment after age sixty-five.
All employees who come under the terms of this article
will be retired upon reaching the age of sixty-five, except as
provided in section 2-206, unless their continued services are
requested by the department head in whose department such
employees are employed and agreed to by the city manager
and such employees. In the case of department heads, their
service may be continued by the city manager, with the approval
of the city council. In the case of city council appointees,
the commissioner of revenue, the city treasurer, the city sergeant,
the clerk of the corporation court and their employees,
continued service shall be approved by the city council. No
employee shall be required to serve beyond the retirement age
if he wishes to retire, and he shall be eligible for any retirement
pay to which his length of service, not less than ten
years, and rate of pay entitle him under the provisions of this
article. (11-2-59; 4-15-63.)
