AGENDA ITEM
I- 5
AGENDA TITLE: Adopt Resolution to Grant Designated Period for Two Years Additional Service
Credit in Accordance with Government Code Section 20903
MEETING DATE: May 4, 2016
PREPARED BY: Human Resources Manager
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt resolution to grant designated period for two years additional
service credit in accordance with Government Code Section 20903.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The anticipated need to further reduce City spending in FY 2016/17
has necessitated the City to explore additional options to reduce
staffing. The CaIPERS Two Years Additional Service Credit
program, as established under California Government Code Section
20903, allows the City (as part of a budget reduction process) to offer a retirement incentive of two years
additional service credit to eligible employees who retire within a designated period of time.
The City of Lodi desires to designate a period in which eligible employees who qualify for Two Years
Additional Service Credit, based on the amendment to the PERS contract, can retire under the program.
The designated period for the Two Years Additional Service Credit program would be from May 5, 2016
through September 1, 2016, for eligible Miscellaneous members in the specified job classification of
Recreation Superintendent.
This resolution grants final approval and completes the process.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The cost of this benefit will be amortized over 5 years and included in the
City's CaIPERS employer contribution rate beginning in FY 2019/2020.
The anticipated job vacancy is expected to save the City approximately
$132,375 annually in salary and benefits.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: Funding available from the departments operating budget.

CERTIFICATION OF COMPLIANCE WITH
GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 20903
In accordance with Government Code Section 20903 and the contract between the Public
Employees' Retirement System, the City Council of the City of Lodi hereby certifies that:
1. Because of an impending curtailment of, or change in the manner of performing service, the
best interests of the agency will be served by granting such additional service credit.
2. The added cost to the retirement fund for all eligible employees who retire during the
designated window period will be included in the contracting agency's employer contribution
rate for the fiscal year that begins two years after the end of the designated period.
3. It has elected to become subject to Section 20903 because of impending mandatory
transfers, demotions, and layoffs that constitute at least 1 percent of the job classification,
department or organizational unit, as designated by the governing body, resulting from the
curtailment of, or change in the manner of performing, its services.
4. Its intention at the time Section 20903 becomes operative is to keep all vacancies created
by retirements under this section or at least one vacancy in any position in any department
or other organizational unit permanently unfilled thereby resulting in an overall reduction in
the work force of such department or organizational unit.
THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Lodi hereby elects to provide the benefits of
Government Code Section 20903 to all eligible members who retire within the designated
period, May 5, 2016 through September 1, 2016.
