/'~ <br />..'~ <br />OFFICE OF Tii CITY ATTORNEY <br />F.TJC§US ~' 16 , 197 2 <br />SUBJECT: Applicability of Government Code Employee <br />• Residence Requirements ?'o Char-tcr Ci-cies <br />.Eicf7ES'i`'i7 Bl': D. E. BvTT, Diroctor of Personnel <br />OPIiQIO~T ~`Z: Names A. Wi-chers, City Attorney <br />C~arles J. Liberto, Deputy City Attorney <br />QUESTION: Nay a Charter City such as the City of Santa <br />Ana require. its employees to be residents o <br />the city despite the provisio~~s of Government <br />Code Section 50083 which prohi'oits "local <br />agencies"from requiring that its employees be <br />~ residents of suc'z local agencies. <br />CONCLL''SiON: The City of Santa Ana may require its <br />employees to be -residents or the City of <br />Santa Ana since Government Code Section 50083 <br />is not applicable to Charter Cities. <br />Z-~~TA~~VSIS <br />Section 9-3 of t'~ie San'~a A.za Ifanicipal Code is almost in <br />direct conflict with Section 50G83 of the Government Code (Stats. <br />1978 c 1.18, p 2696, Section 1) . <br />Section 9-3 0-` the Santa Ana N~unicipal Code provides <br />"A'_l employees of the City shall reside within <br />the City, or within such area bordering the <br />-.City as shall be designated by resolution <br />by the City Council. Probationary employees <br />shall become residents of the area outlined <br />in such resolutions within six (6) months <br />from the date they acquire permanent status." <br />Government Code -Section 50083 provides: <br />"~;o local ~.gency [city] or district shall <br />req~:ire 4hat its employees be residents of <br />sucz local agency or district." <br />T,ze gc~~er41 rule is that ordinances of Charter cities <br />~clating i:.o r..a•tters w:zich are purely municipal affairs are not invalid <br />beca;sc they are in conflict with the general State laws or because <br />`'~ th. State laws have bee~z enacted to cover the sar~2e subject. <br /> <br />25 <br />
