AN AREA IN WHICH SANTA ANA CITY EMPLOYEES ARE
REQUIRED TO MAINTAIN THEIR RESIDENCE
WHEREAS, Section 2202 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code requires
that all City employees live within the City or such areas bordering
the city as shall be designated by resolution of the city Council,
and under authority of such Section, Resolution 63-38 was adopted
March 4, 1963; and
WHEREAS, after consideration of the subject, the City Council
of the city has determined that an enlargement of the residential
area is in order;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED: That Resolution 63-38 is
hereby rescinded and that all employees of the City of Santa Ana,
excepting probationary employees, shall establish and maintain
residence within the city of Santa Ana as it now exists or as its
boundaries may hereafter be altered, or within the area the exterior
boundaries of which are coextensive with the boundaries of the
County of Orange, State of california;
"Residence" as used in this Resolution shall mean the principal
place of abode or customary domicile of the employee to which he most
frequently returns at the end of his work period and where the majority
of his personal effects for day to day use are maintained as distin-
guished from a cabin, building, apartment, trailer, or room where he
less frequently sleeps, rests, and spends his leisure hours.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED: That in exceptional circumstances of
extreme hardship where compelling reasons of health or some other
compelling or unusual circumstance requires a particular place of
residence outside of the County of Orange, the employee may make a
detailed written request for a waiver of the residence requirement
which shall state the exact location of the non- conforming residence
request, the exact details of the reason creating the necessity for
such waiver, any and all supporting data and documents such as a
medical report by a physician or surgeon licensed to practice in the
State of california giving the diagnosis, his opinion, and the basis
for his opinion, including any laboratory examinations, physical
examinations and X-rays. Such written request shall be filed in
triplicate, except that the supporting documents need only be
attached to the original thereof, and shall be delivered to the
Department Head of the employee. Such Department Head shall attach
thereto his personal comments and may include his recommendation and
shall deliver the original and one copy to the City Manager within
three (3) business days after receipt thereof. The City Manager
shall attach to the original thereof his comments and may include his
recommendation and shall deliver the original thereof to the Director
of Personnel within five (5) days after he receives the same. The
Director of Personnel shall present said request at the next succeeding
meeting of the Personnel Board.
After examining the request and any supporting documents and
making such inquiry as it may desire, the Personnel Board may grant
a waiver of the residential requirement herein set out or may deny
the same. In reaching its determination the Personnel Board shall
consider the employee's need for such exceptional treatment on
residence location, the employee's personal record, his value to the
City as an employee and the effect of a waiver upon City service, the
time necessary to reach his place of employment if he be called to
perform emergency overtime, and such other matters affecting the
public interest as may be presented or appear from the data available
to the Personnel Board. Any waiver of residential requirements may
be limited or conditioned. The fact of such waiver and any conditions
affecting the same shall be filed with the City Manager and the
Department Head.
