§ 2-58. Appointment or employment—Within same department or supervisor/subordinate relationship.

The appointment or employment of members of an immediate family shall not be allowed within the same department or in a supervisor/subordinate relationship where the chain of command crosses departmental lines. If employees become members of an immediate family by the process of adoption or marriage, or creation of espoused relationship, reasonable effort shall be made to place one of the employees in another department or outside the chain of command, provided that a position is available wherein the duties and rate of pay are reasonably similar to the position from which the employee is being transferred.
