Title 5 - Monroe County Water Authority
1101 - Transfer of Officers and Employees.

§ 1101. Transfer of officers and employees. Any public officer or
employee under civil service, selected by the authority may, with the
consent of the commission, board or department by which he or she has
been employed, be transferred to the authority and shall be eligible for
such transfer and appointment without examination to comparable offices,
positions and employment under the authority. The salary or
compensation of any such officer or employee shall after such transfer
be paid by the authority. But notwithstanding the provisions of this
act, any such officers or employees so transferred to the authority,
pursuant to the provisions of this section, who are members of or
beneficiaries under any existing pension or retirement system, shall
continue to have all rights, privileges, obligations and status with
respect to such fund, system or systems as are now prescribed by law,
but during the period of their employment by the authority, all
contributions to any pension or retirement fund or system to be paid by
the employer on account of such officers or employee, shall be paid by
the authority; and all such officers and employees who have been
appointed to positions under the rules and classifications of the civil
service commission of the county of Monroe shall have the same status
with respect thereto after transfer to the authority as they had under
their original appointments. It is hereby declared that in the interest
of efficiency and insofar as may be practicable, all employees engaged
in the operation of any property or properties, except in an executive
capacity, at the time such property or properties shall have been
acquired by the authority, pursuant to the provisions of this act, shall
become the employees of the authority. The appointment and promotion of
all employees of the authority shall be made in accordance with the
provisions of the civil service law (constituting chapter seven of the
consolidated laws) and such rules as the civil service commission of the
county of Monroe may adopt and make applicable to such authority.
