MUTUALLY AGREED. Either the Department Head or the officer facing discipline may offer to impose or accept a suspension without pay for a period from one hundred and twenty-one (121) to seven hundred and twenty (720) hours. If the officer accepts the mutually agreed suspension, there shall be no right to appeal the suspension to any administrative or judicial body, and the officer must sign a waiver of appeal. It is also understood and agreed that, if the Department Head permits the forfeit of vacation, compensatory, or holiday time for suspension, said vacation, compensatory, or holiday time shall be considered as equal discipline to unpaid hours of suspension. In no case will sick leave be substituted for unpaid hours of suspension. The forfeited vacation, compensatory, or holiday time will not constitute hours worked. Forfeiture of vacation, compensatory, or holiday time will not preclude an officer from being paid overtime at the rate of time and a half for those overtime assignments that have been identified as “guaranteed overtime” assignments.
