CITY OF SAN LEANDRO <br />NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS <br />For The Year Ended June 30, 2019 <br />NOTE 14 – OTHER POST EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS (Continued) <br />Discount Rate – The discount rate used to measure the total OPEB liability is 5.25%. This is the expected <br />long-term rate of return on City assets using a Moderately Conservative Highmark PLUS fund within the <br />Public Agency Retirement Services (PARS). The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount <br />rate assumed that the City contribution will be made at rates equal to the actuarially determined contribution <br />rates. Based on those assumptions, the OPEB plan's fiduciary net position is projected to cover all future <br />OPEB payments. Therefore, the discount rate was set equal to the long-term expected rate of return. <br />C.
