Report Title: Amendments to CCC Employees' Retirement Association Board Of Retirement Regulations
☒Recommendation of the County Administrator ☐ Recommendation of Board Committee
RECOMMENDATIONS:
ADOPT administrative revisions to the Board of Retirement Regulations, as adopted by the Board of Retirement of the Contra Costa County Employees Retirement Association on September 25, 2024, pursuant to Government Code section 31525.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Administrative changes with no fiscal impact to the County.
BACKGROUND:
The following amendments to the Board of Retirement’s Regulations, which were adopted by the Contra Costa County Employees' Retirement Association (CCCERA) on September 25, 2024 are presented for adoption:
Sec. II. Meetings
• Streamline the order of business in meeting agendas.
• Change “trustee comments” to “trustee reports on meetings, seminars and conference,” because reports are required by law under Gov’t Code sec. 53232.3
Sec. III.1.A. Membership & Exclusion from Membership
Add a provision that allows an adjustment of an officer or employee’s membership entry date by no more than twelve weeks after their entrance into service in order to facilitate that member establishing reciprocity with another pension system. This would allow flexibility in overlapping membership/employment situations and would be of benefit to CCCERA’s members. (See Gov. Code Section 31527(h).)
Sec. III.4. Certifications
Add provisions regarding the type of information required by every employee enrolling in CCCERA and that the employee certification can be done electronically by the employer.
Sec. VI. Compensation
Update compensation policy titles and statutory reference.
Additional formatting and typographical updates are reflected in the attached copy.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Revisions to the Board of Retirement Regulations will not be approved by the Board of Supervisors.
