Description/Analysis
IssueDetail
Issue Detail: CalPERS classic members covered by the Personnel Resolution Covering Compensation for Council Appointed Officers (Resolution) in unrepresented Unit 24 pay one percent (1%) of the CalPERS employer contribution rate.

In accordance with the Resolution, the City must amend the City's contract with CalPERS to reflect the cost-sharing agreement for Unit 24. Upon completion of the CalPERS contract amendment process, which is a multi-step process as required by CalPERS, the cost sharing paid by employees covered by the Resolution will be credited to their CalPERS member account as opposed to the employer's account.

Under Government Code Section 20516, CalPERS requires the Council to adopt a resolution that has been signed by a simple majority of the affected unrepresented employees to initiate the CalPERS contract amendment process. The proposed amendment received the number of signatures required by CalPERS.
