A provision of the employment agreement <br />was a 2% employee contribution towards the City’s CalPERS retirement costs for a total <br />employee contribution of 10% in the first year, which was implemented on January 1, 2019. <br />Effective July 1, 2019, the City Manager will pay an additional 1% of employee contribution <br />towards the City’s CalPERS retirement costs for a total employee contribution of 11%. <br />DISCUSSION <br />The City must amend its contract with CalPERS each time a new cost sharing provision is <br />effective. The process to amend the CalPERS contract requires the City Council to adopt a <br />Resolution of Intention to approve an amendment to the contract and to introduce an Ordinance <br />authorizing an amendment to the contract. The second reading of the Ordinance will be presented <br />to the City Council for adoption on April 1, 2019. <br />Fiscal Impacts <br />There is no fiscal impact with the approval of this resolution. The fiscal impact of the cost sharing <br />was presented when the City Manager’s employment agreement and the SLPOA MOU was <br />approved. <br />Previous Action <br />·Resolution 2018-017 Approving an Employment Agreement with Jeff Kay to Serve as the <br />City Manager. <br />·Resolution 2016-648 Approving the Memorandum of Understanding between the City of <br />San Leandro and the San Leandro Police Officers’ Association (SLPOA) for the period <br />January 1, 2016 through December 31, 2019. <br />Attachments: <br />·Amendment to CalPERS contract <br />PREPARED BY: Emily Hung, Human Resources Manager, City Manager’s Office <br />Page 2 City of San Leandro Printed on 2/26/2019
