Persons appointed to positions in the classified police service May 1, 2013 and thereafter shall reside within the corporate limits of Macon County, or within the corporate limits of any municipality extending into Macon County. Upon original appointment, an appointee may reside outside said limits but shall be required as a condition of continued employment to comply with said residency requirement no later than ninety (90) days after the completion of said appointee's probationary period.
