Because each hour of overtime worked is programmatically accrued on a time and <br />one-half (1 1/2) basis, compensatory time off will be taken, and monetary payment <br />will be paid, on a straight-time basis. Also, upon termination, any earned, unused <br />compensatory time off ("time-on-the-books") will be paid on a straight-time <br />basis. <br />F. Time off with pay to compensate for overtime worked may be taken in increments <br />as small as a half (%2) hour. <br />G.

Before <br />compensatory time off with pay may be taken, as herein provided, the overtime <br />worked must have been recorded on official payroll records at or about the time <br />the overtime work was performed. In the absence of such recording, no <br />compensatory time off with pay will be permitted. <br />1.

To the extent that he or she is reasonably able to do so, <br />the Department Head or his or her designee shall arrange work programs to minimize <br />overtime work. Necessary overtime work shall be apportioned among employees of like <br />classification and assignment. <br />6.7 Call-Back Duty. Any employee covered by this Agreement who is recalled to active duty <br />from off-duty, shall be entitled to overtime pay at the rate of one and one-half (1 ''/2) times <br />the normal hourly pay rate for such employee for time actually worked after reporting to <br />the place of duty, or three (3) hours pay at the normal rate of pay, whichever is greater. <br />6.8 Declaration of State of Emergency. Upon the occurrence of fire, flood, earthquake, <br />strike, riot or other catastrophe or emergency which directly affects City operations or the <br />welfare of the City's citizens, the City Manager may declare a state of emergency to <br />exist.
