2006 New York Code - Administration Of Civil Service.

 
    § 6207. Administration of civil service.  The city university, for the
  purpose of administering the state civil service law, shall be deemed to
  be a municipal employer, provided, however, that the city university may
  elect  to delegate the administration of any or all of the provisions of
  the civil service law, except article fourteen,  to  the  department  of
  personnel  of  the city of New York.  In that event, the city department
  of personnel shall enter into a contract with such  university  for  the
  rendition  of  such  services.    The  city university of New York shall
  compensate the city of New York for such services only with  respect  to
  such  services  rendered for or on behalf of the senior colleges of such
  university.  If the city of New York and city university cannot agree on
  the amount of such compensation, the state comptroller  shall  determine
  the  fair  and reasonable value of such services and the city university
  shall pay such sum to the city of New York.  Any person on  an  eligible
  list  for  a  position with the city university of New York in effect on
  the effective date of this article shall continue to hold such  position
  on  such  list  and  shall be entitled to the same civil service rights.
  With respect to all persons employed  by  the  city  university  on  the
  effective  date of this article, the city university and the city of New
  York shall be deemed to be the same public employer only for purposes of
  transfer of employment under the civil service law.   No  civil  service
  right  of an employee of the city university of New York employed on the
  effective date of this article shall be lost, impaired  or  affected  by
  reason of the enactment of this article into law.
