salary rate equal to the employee's then-current salary rate. Thereafter, such
employees shall be eligible only for any negotiated annual across-the-board increase
applicable to the "Limited Deputy" classification.
2. Employees hired into the Service Agent and/or Deputy I classifications on or
after August 22, 1983 shall be hired at the base step of the January, 1989 Deputy I "New
