hours of vacation time remains in the employee's vacation bank. Conversion may be requested
throughout the fiscal year, with a minimum of 30 days' notice to payroll, and Department Head
approval. This provision shall expire on December 31, 2022 with the implementation of Section

employee must pre -elect the number of vacation hours they will cash out, up to a maximum
of 40 hours, by December 15 of the preceding calendar year (with December 15, 2022
being the election deadline for cash out in 2023). The election will apply only to vacation
hours accrued in the next calendar year The election to cash out vacation hours in each
designated year is irrevocable. UNION employees who elect to cash out vacation leave
hours must cash out the number of accrued hours pre -designated on the irrevocable election
foim provided by the City UNION employees who pre -designate cash out amounts may
request a cash out at any time in the designated calendar year by submitting a cash out
request at least 30 days in advance to Human Resources. Human Resources will confirm
the cash out amount has accrued and is consistent with the amount the UNION employee
pre -designated, then forward to payroll to complete the cash out request. If the full amount
of hours designated for cash out is not available at the time of cash out request, the
maximum available will be paid.
For UNION employees who have not requested payment of the elected cash out amount
by November 1 of each year, payroll will automatically cash out the pre -designated amount
in a paycheck issued on or after the payroll date including November 1. Additionally, the
City may, prior to the end of the calendar year, automatically cash out the vacation leave
accrued each pay period by a UNIT employee such that the vacation leave cash out is
consistent with the UNION employee's pre -elected number of vacation leave cash out
hours for that year.
UNION employees who do not pre -designate vacation leave cash out hours or who decline the cash opt
option by the December 15 deadline will be deemed to have waived the right and will not be eligible to cash
out any vacation leave in that year.
