Changes in retirement benefit formulas approved Changes in retirement benefit formulas approved Thursday, January 13, 2011 - Piacer County Rocklin & Rosevil/e Today http://www.rocklintoday.com/ The Placer County Board of Supervisors, at its regularly scheduled day approved changes to retirement benefit formulas for employees. The Board OK'd two items: a resolution and an ordinance that a contracts with the California Public Employees Retirement System (CaIPERS). The actions by the Board ai of a specifically proscribed process to implement changes to contracts between the County and finro emplo� organizations. The changes will apply only to new hires and will include establishment of new formulas for retirement benE implementation of a new way to determine retirement compensation. The changes to the contracts specifically would: Change the retirement benefits for most future employees from 2.5 percent at age 55 to 2 percent at agE Change the retirement formula for future public safety hires from 3 percent at age 50 to 3 percent at age Require that future retirement allowances for all new hires be based on a three-year average, rather thar current one-year standard; and Require all new safety, management and confidential employees pay 100 percent of the employee sharE retirement contribution. The new formulas would cover employees hired after March 12, 2011, or employees who change their retir classification after that date. The Board took action in September and November of last year to approve thE formulas. Today's actions are part of the process to codify those changes. "This is one example of several necessary actions that need to be taken to achieve fiscal sustainability," sa Supervisor Robert Weygandt, who will be the new Board Chairman in 2011. "These are the kind of structur changes that will allow the county budget to work now and to work 20 years from now." In the past, the county agreed to pick up increasing percentages of employee pension contributions to CaIF for current employees. However, in changing financial times with increasing CaIPERS payments, the Coun no longer continue that level of contribution. "These are some of the difficult changes that the Board of Supervisors has had to make over the past few � ensure the financial stability of Placer County," said outgoing Board Chairman Kirk Uhler. "While neighborir jurisdictions have had to make wholesale cuts in staff and services, we have largely avoided these measur CaIPERS rules require that local agencies adopt a Resolution of Intention a minimum of 20 days before ad an ordinance that changes a CaIPERS contract. The anticipated action at Tuesday's meeting will constitutE first reading of the ordinance. The second reading is tentatively scheduled for the Supervisors' Feb. 8, 201 meeting, with the ordinance taking effect on March 12, 2011. Adopting the two-tier system is a financial measure that will reduce long-term pension liabilities and costs. County instituted a hiring freeze in 2007, and as a result, has hired very few new employees into county se The hiring freeze, combined with normal attrition, has resulted in a reduction in the County-wide work force almost 300 full time employees. This; and other actions such as the judicious use of reserves by the Board Supervisors, have sustained basic County Services with total layoffs over a three-year period of less than ' individuals.

At meetings since, however, the mayor has � interested residents to address the council.

The expected cuts in positions this year will be comprised of both layoffs and positions left vacant, he said. It's unknown at this point what positions might be cut because the process has just begun, Combs added. But he expects the budget to balance within two or three years.

"T've asked programmatic reduction." Those possible reductions would mean diminished county services for those who use them. This year, $15 million to $20 million will be cut from the budget, Combs said. "I have set a current target of �7 million in reductions that I wili present to the board mid-February," he said.

"You send down the responsibility, but you don't send any funds to go along with it -- you've just increased my burden," Davis asserted. It's important to keep in mind that the deficit figures are preliminary, and county staff will be looking for alternative ways to address the toward layoffs, said Supervisor Hub Walsh.
