~~z The Personnel Ordinance requires, as creditable service for longevity pay, continuous employment by Orange County. A strict interpretation of this provision would disallow the six years of service with the nistrict Health Department as this agency certainly is nat,Orange County.

Discussion on this matter was deferred until the Tax Super- visor could be contacted.
