70000 HUMAN SERVICES AGENCY

Financial Impact on County’s Retirement System
Government Code Section 31515.5 requires the County to provide the estimated financial impact that proposed benefit changes or salary increases for current employees would have on the funding status of SamCERA‘s retirement fund, the County’s retirement system.
As reflected in the attached letter from SamCERA’s actuary, Milliman, the changes reflected in this amendment that are in addition to the assumed annual salary increases of affected current employees, increases the Actuarial Accrued Liability (AAL) by approximately $177,000. While the Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability (UAAL) of SamCERA will be higher by this amount, the funded ratio, rounded to the nearest one basis point, will be unchanged.
FISCAL IMPACT:
These actions represent an estimated monthly salary and benefits cost of $6,338 or an annual cost estimate of $76,051.
