CITY OF SAN LEANDRO <br />NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS <br />For The Year Ended June 30, 2022 <br />NOTE 14 – PENSIONS PLAN (Continued) <br />Contributions – Section 20814(c) of the California Public Employees’ Retirement Law requires that the <br />employer contribution rates for all public employers be determined on an annual basis by the actuary and <br />shall be effective on July 1 following notice of a change in the rate. Funding contributions for both Plans <br />are determined annually on an actuarial basis as of June 30 by CalPERS. <br />The actuarially determined rate is the estimated amount necessary to finance the costs of benefits earned by <br />employees during the year, with an additional amount to finance any unfunded accrued liability. The City is <br />required to contribute the difference between the actuarially determined rate and the contribution rate of <br />employees. <br />For the year ended June 30, 2022, the contributions recognized as part of pension expense for the Plan <br />were as follows: <br />Miscellaneous Safety Total <br />Contributions - employer 10,532,119$ 9,552,942$ 20,085,061$ <br />B. Information Common to the Miscellaneous and Safety Plans <br />The City’s net pension liability for each Plan is measured as the total pension liability, less the pension <br />plan’s fiduciary net position. The net pension liability of each of the Plan is measured as of June 30, <br />2021, using an annual actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2020 rolled forward to June 30, 2021 using <br />standard update procedures. A summary of principal assumptions and methods used to determine the net <br />pension liability is shown below. <br />Actuarial Assumptions – The total pension liabilities in the June 30, 2020 actuarial valuations were <br />determined using the following actuarial assumptions: <br />All Plans <br />Valuation Date 6/30/2020 <br />Measurement Date 6/30/2021 <br />Actuarial Cost Method Entry-Age Normal Cost Method <br />Actuarial Assumptions: <br />Discount Rate 7.15% <br />Inflation 2.50% <br />Payroll Growth 2.75% <br />Projected Salary Increase (1) <br />Investment Rate of Return 7.15% (2) <br />Mortality Derived using CalPERS Membership Data for all Funds (3) <br /> Post Retirement Benefit Increase <br />Purchasing Power <br /> Protection Allowance floor on purchasing power <br />applies, 2.5% thereafter <br />(1) Depending on age, service and type of employment. <br />(2) Net of pension plan investment expenses, includes inflation. <br />(3) The mortality table used was developed based on CalPERS' specific data.
