Traffenstedt, Deputy City Manager DATE: September 26, 2012 (CC Meeting of 10/3/12) SUBJECT: Consider Resolution Granting Another Designated Period for Two Years Additional Service Credit Retirement Incentive Pursuant to Government Code Section 20903 and Consistent with the City's Contract with California Public Employees' Retirement System (CaIPERS) BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION At the City Council's regular meeting on September 19, 2012, the Council directed staff to schedule a resolution for the Council's regular meeting on October 3, approving and designating the time period for the two years of additional service credit retirement incentive for one Management position in the Finance Department. The staff report for the September 19 meeting included the information on required public disclosure of the costs to the City for the proposed retirement incentive. That report is available for public review on the City's website. The window period for filing of a retirement application to be eligible for the two additional years of service credit is proposed to begin on October 5, 2012, and end on March 5, 2013 (this time period is more than the minimum 90 days, but does not exceed the maximum 180 days permitted by CaIPERS). One retirement is anticipated during the window period for the retirement incentive. The additional service will be credited by CaIPERS after an eligible member has retired and is receiving a monthly retirement allowance. The added cost to the retirement fund for any eligible employee who retires during the specified period will be included in the contracting agency's annual valuation report for the fiscal year that begins two years after the end of the designated period. Employment separation for the one eligible employee is expected to occur by the end of calendar year 2012. CaIPERS provides a resolution for adoption, and certification documents, which are included as an attachment to this report. Following adoption action by the City Council, the resolution and certification documents will be completed and signed by the Mayor and City Clerk and forwarded to CaIPERS.
