terms and conditions of employment presently enjoyed by Confidential employees shall .
remain in full force and- effect unless changed subsequent to meetings between the City
and representatives of the "Confidential" employees.
SECTION 4: The City of Costa Mesa has contracted with the California Public
Employees. Retirement System (CaIPERS) to provide retirement benefits to eligible City
employees under the.2% at 55 formula. The City pays 7% of the employees' retirement
contribution to CaIPERS. The City shall pay each affected employee's CaIPERS normal
member contribution (as defined in §20677 of the California Government Code) into an
individual employee account with CaIPERS, pursuant to .§20615 of the California
Government Code, and will include this payment in the employee's compensation
earnable that is reported to CaIPERS, pursuant to §20023(c)(4) of the California
Government Code.
The City agrees to implement procedures to amend the CaIPERS Miscellaneous
Plan to provide Government Code §21354.4 (2.5@55) retirement benefits to be effective
on or about October 1, 2008. Pursuant to CaIPERS regulations, this new formula will
apply to all employees that are in active status on the date this amendment takes effect.
This new formula will apply to each year of eligible service credited with the City of
Costa Mesa.
In conjunction with the salary adjustments, employees covered by this resolution
shall contribute 1 % of their salary toward the cost of the 2.5% at 55 CaIPERS retirement
benefit. To the extent permitted by CaIPERS and the IRS regulations, this 1 %
contribution shall be implemented through payroll deduction on a pre-tax basis.
Effective the pay period that includes September 1, 2008 the City will adjust the
monthly base salary for employees covered by this agreement by the average fair wage
increase. In conjunction with the salary adjustments, employees in non -sworn
classifications shall contribute an additional 2.6% of their salary toward the cost of the
2.5% at 55 CaIPERS retirement benefit for a total cost of 3.6% (both employer and
3
employee rate based on CalPERS actuarial data on September 1,.2007.and subject to
update in 2008). If the total cost exceeds 4%, the parties agree to meet and discuss the
payment for the excess amount over 4%. To the extent permitted by CalPERS and the
IRS regulations, this 2.6% or greater contribution shall be .implemented through payroll
deduction on a pre-tax basis.
SECTION 5: Employees hired after January 1, 2004 will participate in the
mandatory Retirement Health Savings defined contribution plan and are not eligible for
the Retired Employees' Medical Program. The purpose of the Defined Contribution
Retirement Health Savings Plan (RHS Plan) is to establish a tax protected savings
program for every full-time employee that will:
• Provide a retiree medical benefit'for employees hired after January 1, 2004 who
will not be eligible for the health insurance contribution under the Council Policy
300-1.
• Provide a supplemental benefit to the City contribution under Council Policy
300-1 for current employees (hired before January 1, 2004).
The program will require mandatory participation by all full-time employees.
Employees will make a monthly contribution to the plan equal to 1 % of their base
monthly salary, which will be matched by a 1 % salary monthly contribution from the City
into employees' accounts. The account assets that accumulate, plus investment
earnings, will be used in retirement to pay health insurance premiums and other eligible
out-of-pocket medical expenses such as deductibles, co -payments, vision care or dental
care. Employee contributions plus vested employer contributions will be portable if an
employee should leave employment with Costa Mesa prior to retirement.
SECTION 6: In determining what is adequate compensation for "Confidential"
unrepresented employees, the City will utilize the provisions of City Council Policy 300-7
(Adjustments to Employee Compensation) as a continued guideline and for establishing
recommendations to the City Council.
