HUSTON,~ CITY MANAGER PERSONNEL SERVICES RESOLUTION NO. 96-24 AND ORDINANCE NO. 1166 TO.AMEND CONTRACT WITH PERS TO ADD MILITARY BUY BACK OPTION RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council approve Resolution No. 96-24 to amend its contract with the Public Employees Retirement System (PERS) to provide the Military Buy Back Option for all sworn employees, as previously approved by Council on February 20, 1996, in the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Tustin Police Officers Association. In order to enact the contract amendment with PERS, the City is required to pass an ordinance authorizing amendment to the City's contract with the Public Employees Retirement System. Ordinance No. 1166 is presented for approval of the first reading. FISCAL IMPACT: Section 20930.3, Military Service as Public Service allows employees to elect to purchase up-to four years of service credit for any continuous active military or merchant marine service prior to employment. The Public Employees Retirement System does not require a valuation because there is no way of knowing who may choose to exercise this option; however, citY's cost will emerge in future valuations. Immediate cost is totally the responsibility of the employee wishing to exercise this option. Costs to the employee member may exceed $5,000 for each year of military service and for this reason it is not expected that all who qualify will exercise this option. PERS CONTRACT AMENDMENT, MILITARY BUY BACK FOR SWORN Page 2 DISCUSSION: We are currently following the necessary procedures as outlined by the Public Employees Retirement System to implement the contract amendment which was agreed to in the 1996 Memorandum of Understanding with the Tustin Police officers Association. The City Attorney has reviewed and approved all forms presented to Council for approval. Ordinance No. 1166 will be brought back for the second and final reading at the council meeting, May 6, 1996, since PERS requires a 20-day lapse between adoption of the resolution of intent and the adoption of the ordinar~ce.
