December 11, 2012
8. Amend Contract Between CalPers & the City of San Bruno
A
I've
never
ate
public
hearings,
we're
going
to
hold
a
public
hearing
and
adopted
urgency
ordinance
amending
the
contract
between
the
board
of
administration
of
the
california
public,
you
public
employees,
retirement
system,
calpers
and
the
city
of
san
bruno
to
include
provisions
pursuant
to
government
code,
section
204,
75,
implementing
the
two
percent
at
55
retirement
formula,
miscellaneous
group
and
three
percent
at
55
retirement
formula.
Fire
group
great.
B
Thank
you,
honorable
mayor
members
of
the
City
Council.
As
you
are
aware,
the
city
currently
contracts
with
the
california
public
employees
retirement
system
to
provide
retirement
benefits
to
our
three
separate
pers
units,
which
includes
the
miscellaneous
employees,
fire
employees
and
police
employees.
The
city
currently
contracts
at
a
2.7
at
55
formula
for
miscellaneous
employees
and
a
three
percent
at
50
formula
for
fire
and
police
employees.
B
Due
to
the
recent
pension
reform
legislation
that
passed
a
few
months
ago,
the
ability
of
cities
to
amend
their
current
existing
calpers
contracts
going
forward
will
be
limited
and
those
contract
amendments
can
only
be
made
through
the
end
of
this
calendar
year.
As
you
know,
we
have
been
in
negotiations
with
our
bargaining
units.
B
We
have
reached
agreements
with
four
of
our
six
bargaining
units,
which
all
include
an
attendant
event
with
a
fifth
unit
and
all
those
allow
for
a
provision
of
a
second
tier
retirement
for
miscellaneous
employees
at
a
two
percent
at
55
formula
and
for
fire
employees.
At
a
three
percent
at
55
formula
on
November
15th,
the
City
Council
unanimously
adopted
a
resolution
of
intent,
signaling
the
city's
interest
in
intent
to
move
forward
with
a
contract
amendment.
B
While
we
can
move
forward
with
the
adoption
of
this
ordinance
and
I
would
just
add
that
this
is
an
urgency
ordinance,
as
was
discussed
at
the
meeting
on
November
15,
because
of
these
time
constraints
that
were
operating
under,
we
have
to
adopt
this
via
urgency
ordinance,
which
would
then
authorize
the
city
to
move
forward
with
the
execution
of
the
contract
amendment
by
the
end
of
the
calendar
year.
Now,
if
this,
so
we
can
move
forward
with
the
adoption
of
the
urgency
ordinance.
B
However,
if
we
do
not
reach
an
agreement
with
those
two
remaining
bargaining
units
by
the
end,
within
this
timeframe,
we
would
repeal
the
ordinance
and
not
proceed
with
the
execution
of
those
contract.
Amendment
documents.
So
the
action
tonight
is
to
ask
that
we
move
forward
with
the
adoption
of
the
ordinance
so
that
we
are
able
to
amend
the
contract
if
we
reach
those
agreements
and
just
a
reminder
that
in
urgency,
ordinance
does
require
for
affirmative
votes
of
the
council
to
be
adopted.
Thank.
