The exception - <br />employees earning more than twenty days of vacation leave a year will as of, July 1, 1997, and <br />thereafter, earn at a rate of twenty days a year. <br />The County Manager may establish a vacation leave earning rate, consistent with this schedule, for a <br />new employee when in the best interest of the County for recruitment of an experienced individual. <br />Attachment number 1 \n <br />F -6 Page 140 <br />
