to the contrary, every person seeking employment with the city of New

employment to the effect that if such person is or becomes a nonresident
individual as that term is defined in section 11-1706 of the administra-
tive code of the city of New York or any similar provision of such code,
during employment by the city, such person will pay to the city an
amount by which a city personal income tax on residents computed and
determined as if such person were a resident individual, as defined in
such section, during such employment, exceeds the amount of any city
