Purpose and intent. It is the purpose of this article and the intent of the Park and Recreation Board in adopting this article to establish a requirement for persons employed in the city service to reside within the City of Minneapolis. This requirement will both enhance the city's economy and create a closer identification with the city by its employees.

After December 1, 1993, any individual appointed in the classified service in either a permanent or temporary position shall establish and maintain residency within the corporate boundaries of the City of Minneapolis within a reasonable time after completing probation.

Application: Classified service. After December 1, 1993, any individual appointed in the unclassified service shall establish and maintain residency within the corporate boundaries of the City of Minneapolis within six (6) months after the individual's first day of employment.

Application: Unclassified service. The residency requirement shall not apply to employees serving in the unclassified service on December 1, 1993, and they shall remain exempt from the residency requirement during any continuous period of employment with the Park and Recreation Board, whether in the unclassified or classified service, which begun on or before December 1, 1993.
