§ 1509.3. SERVICE CONNECTED DISABILITY RETIREMENT.
Members shall be retired for disability, regardless of age or amount of service, if incapacitated for the performance of duty as the result of injury or illness incurred in the performance of duty. A member may accept a transfer or reassignment to another City department. Such transfer or reassignment shall not prejudice the member's right to such disability retirement upon his subsequent separation from service with the City. In event of reassignment, the member shall retain the classification held at time of reassignment and shall receive the salary attached to that classification.
(Sec. 1509.3 amended by vote of the people 4-17-1973, effective July 1, 1973.)
