EXHIBIT A If a permanent full-time employee is denied a promotion or transfer under this policy, the employee may appeal such action to the City Manager within three business days of the date the employee receives written notification of said action. Such appeal shall be submitted in writing, stating the reason(s) that the employment decision should be rescinded. The parties shall select and utilize an arbitrator. The arbitrator's decision shall be considered final and binding with no further administrative appeal rights. XXV.
