The opinion

JUSTICE SIMON, dissenting:

For the reasons set forth in the appellate court opinion in Bastian v. Personnel Board (1982), 108 Ill. App. 3d 672 , I believe that the residency requirement established in chapter 25, section 30, of the Chicago Municipal Code “is unconstitutional because it lacks definite standards for equitable enforcement.” 108 Ill. App. 3d 672, 681 .
