Employees covered by this resolution who do not meet the definition of “new member” under the California Public Employees’ Pension Reform Act of 2013 (PEPRA) (those unit members shall be referred to as “classic members”) are enrolled in either the CalPERS retirement plan provided for by Government Code § 21354.4, and commonly referred to as the 2.5% at age 55 retirement plan (“tier 1”), or the 2% at 60 formula provided for by Government Code § 21353 (“tier 2”).

Effective the pay period that includes July 1, 2023, classic member employees subject to the 2.5%@55 formula shall have their cost sharing per Government Code section 20516(a) reduced by 1.469% for a net contribution of one percent (1%) and cost sharing pursuant to 20516(f) will be reduced from 1.531% to 0%.

Effective the pay period that includes July 1, 2023, classic member employees subject to the 2%@60 formula shall have their cost sharing per Government Code section 20516(f) reduced by 1% for a net contribution of two percent (2%).

B. New Members: Under PEPRA (see section 2.2 below):

Effective April 16, 2017, the total contribution for PEPRA tier 3 (2% @ 62) unit members will be 9% of pensionable compensation, inclusive of statutory employee contributions and cost sharing.

3.2 THE CALIFORNIA PUBLIC EMPLOYEES’ PENSION REFORM ACT OF 2013 (PEPRA) As it may from time to time exist, the PEPRA shall in its entirety be given full force and effect. PEPRA includes, but is not limited to, the provisions described below:

Members hired on and after January 1, 2013, deemed to be a “new member” as defined in Government Code § 7522.04, shall individually pay an initial Member CALPERS contribution rate of 50% of the normal cost rate for the Defined Benefit Plan in which said “new member” is enrolled, rounded to the nearest quarter of 1%, or the current contribution rate of similarly situated employees, whichever is greater.

Members who are “new members” on and after January 1, 2013, shall be enrolled in the PEPRA provided for 2% @ 62 retirement formula for miscellaneous employees (Govt. Code § 7522.20).

Members who are “new members” on and after January 1, 2013, shall have “final compensation” measured by the highest average annual pensionable compensation earned by the member during a period of at least 36 consecutive months (Section 7522.32.), and their retirement benefits shall be calculated based on “pensionable compensation” (Section 7522.10) rather than “compensation earnable” (Section 20636).

SECTION 4. Employees covered by this resolution shall be provided with a $75 monthly technology allowance. The City Manager has the sole discretion to grant, modify or deny an allowance for employees covered by this resolution.

SECTION 5. The City shall contribute an amount toward the flexible benefit plan bucket for the payment of premiums for affected employees and dependents based upon the following criteria:

Full family coverage for the PERS Platinum medical plan under the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CALPERS) health insurance programs Full family coverage for the Dental Indemnity plan
Full premium payment for Life Insurance
Long Term Disability premium will be based upon the top step salary of the highest-salaried Division Manager within the classified service Any amounts necessary to maintain benefit premiums in excess of the City contribution specified above shall be borne entirely by the executive employee.

SECTION 6. Effective October 15, 2017, employees covered by this resolution shall accrue vacation leave at the following rates and shall be capped at the following maximum levels:

Vacation Leave Cash-Outs – Each fiscal year, employees will have the following cash-out options: 1) One eighty (80) hour cash-out any time during the fiscal year, regardless of the employee’s maximum accrual and regardless of the employee’s Vacation Leave usage; and, 2) Up to four cash-outs per fiscal year, any time during the fiscal year (irrespective of quarter), based on a “2 for 1” usage ratio, up to a maximum of 80-hours for each cash out. For example, if an employee uses 10 hours of Vacation Leave, the employee could cash out up to 20 hours of Vacation Leave; in order for an employee to cash-out the maximum of 80-hours Vacation Leave, the employee would need to use 40 hours of Vacation Leave.

All employees who are at the Maximum Accrual Level or who may reach the Maximum Accrual Level shall utilize the “Cash-Out” and/or “Vacation Leave” options so as to NOT exceed the Vacation Accrual Ceiling. Other than exceptions granted based upon City and/or Departmental needs as approved by both the Department Director and the City Manager there will no other cash-out of Vacation Leave time beyond the Maximum Accrual rates that have been established.

SECTION 7. Effective December 24, 2017, the City shall grant Executive Leave to management personnel not to exceed forty (40) hours per year. The City Manager may grant an additional sixty (60) hours of Executive Leave.

SECTION 8. Pursuant to the Executive Professional Development Reimbursement Program, the City agrees to reimburse Division Managers up to $1,000 per fiscal year for activities, materials, equipment or fees that will aid in their individual professional development. The intent of this program is to encourage and recognize executive staff for pursuing educational, professional or community-oriented activities, enhancing job skills and expertise, and/or purchasing materials/equipment, which improve the executive’s performance. These activities, materials, equipment or fees are intended to be beyond what is budgeted for individuals through the annual budget cycle. The reimbursement options available include the following:

Professional memberships, licenses and certificates that are job-related Professional conferences that are job-related including fees and other expenses while attending Membership dues in community organizations relevant to the executive’s job assignment Purchase of job-related professional journals, periodicals, books or other written materials which further knowledge or improvement of effectiveness in performance of duties Education fees that exceed the City’s annual $1,250 tuition reimbursement limit Direct purchase of qualifying computer equipment defined in Administrative Regulation 2.29 The Department Director and Assistant City Manager must approve participation in the activities and/or purchase of the materials/equipment in advance. Claims for reimbursement must be accompanied by documentation that an eligible expense has been incurred during the fiscal year for the executive employee only. Any portion of the reimbursement amount not incurred within the fiscal year shall remain City funds unless prior approval has been received by the City Manager. Requests to carry forward unencumbered amounts to the next fiscal year must receive approval by the City Manager prior to the end of the fiscal year. All payments will be in the form of reimbursement and no executive employee will directly receive cash for this benefit. Reimbursements, which are subject to taxation, will be processed through the payroll system. The Finance Department shall administer this program in accordance to the stated purpose and will provide the appropriate forms and procedures. This reimbursement program does not prohibit individual departments from continuing to budget funds for executive staff attendance at professional conferences and seminars, for the payment of professional membership dues, and/or for the purchase of books, journals and written materials that are job-related and will enhance an executive’s knowledge or expertise.

SECTION 9. The 401(a) deferred compensation plan provides executives with another tax-deferred savings plan for future financial planning. The City will provide a 0.5% per pay period employer contribution for any executive whose management group elects to participate in the 401(a) plan. The employer contribution will be reflected in that executive’s annual total compensation calculation. However, the City will not provide an employer contribution to the current 457 deferred compensation plan and the executive must make all 457 contributions.

SECTION 10. All parts of resolutions in conflict herewith are hereby rescinded.

PASSED AND ADOPTED this 21st day of March, 2023.
