FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: The City contracts with CaIPERS to provide employees with a specified package of benefits upon retirement. The City's plan is referred to as the 2.5% @ 55 defined benefit plan, where a qualified employee may receive an annual retirement benefit equal to 2.5% of their final compensation times the number of years of service at age 55. The City funds these benefits on an annual basis according to actuarially determined contribution rates for both the employee (8%) and the employer (12.122%). The City's employer rate of 12.122% includes 2.221 % which is referred to as the "side fund" which is eligible for repayment. Staff is proposing to pay-off this side fund amount which totals $1,338,763 as of September 30, 2009, from the City ($1,231,427) and Redevelopment Agency ($107,336). Staff estimates a savings of $643,181 by prepaying this liability of which the City would save an estimated $591,614 and the Redevelopment Agency an estimated $51,567. The Agency is being asked to participate in this prepayment since City staff has provided services to the Redevelopment Agency. CHARTER CITY IMPLICATIONS: None. BACKGROUND AND OVERVIEW: In 2003, California legislation mandated that all agencies with less than 100 active members be enrolled in a risk -sharing pool with all other agencies in the State with similar benefit packages. This required the City to join with other CalPERS agencies that offered the Miscellaneous 2.5% at 55 retirement plan to it employees. Prior to this time, the City of La Quinta had a stand alone plan. At the time of joining the risk pool, a side fund was created to account for the difference between the City's assets and liabilities. In 2003, most California agencies, including the City of La Quinta, were under -funded due to four (4) consecutive years of investment losses. Rather than requiring that the City pay off this liability off immediately, CalPERS created this side fund which has been reduced since 2003 by increasing the employer retirement rate. As a result, the City still owes the CalPERS pool $1,415,848 as of June 30, 2010 which will be repaid over the 11 year remaining periods (Attachment 1)• CalPERS will give the City an interest credit for prepaying this amount nine months early by September 30, 2009 of $77,085 for a net amount due of $1,338,763. There are two primary components used to calculate the side fund payoff amount — interest earnings and payroll costs. As illustrated in Attachment 2, staff has conservatively calculated a savings from interest earnings of $380,974 that would be achieved given the historical average of 4% that has been earned on the City pooled investments and the 7.75% earnings credit given by CaIPERS. It is important to note that while the historical City earnings average has been 4% currently the City investment pool is earning less than 1 % given the current environment. The other component is payroll costs which are estimated to result in a savings of $262,207. CaIPERS has used a projected payroll cost of $7.147 million in its payoff calculations for FY 2008/2009 while the City budget contains a budgeted amount of $8.029 million. The difference is caused by CaIPERS using two year old data to prepare its actuary reports and projecting using a 3.25% growth factor. The City on the other hand uses a more precise calculation using the most current step increases (5% between steps) and any Cost of Living Adjustment that is granted. While the City has continued to grant step increases to eligible employees, no cost of living adjustments (cola's) have been granted in Fiscal Year 2009-2010 due to the current economic climate. Therefore it is possible that if economic conditions persist where no Cola's are granted and more employees are at the top step that the City could experience a less than 3.5% payroll growth factor which would result in a savings of less than $262,207. Staff has included the Department by Department breakdown of the fiscal impact for both the City and the Redevelopment Agency (Attachment 3) if this item is approved. One factor that should be considered in the overall analysis is the availability of unencumbered funds to retire this obligation. The City has adequate unreserved 2 fL General Fund balances (or cash equivalents) of $18 million readily available to pay this obligation. Another important reason given by our CalPERS actuary is to mitigate future CalPERS rate hikes due to recent stock market and real estate losses experienced by CalPERS in 2008 and 2009. While it is important to note that by paying this side fund off the City and RDA budgets for pension expenses will be reduced by a total of approximately $178,000 between the two agencies, future CalPERS employer pension cost increases our on the horizon. Attachment 4 is a recent Circular Letter from CalPERS that highlights the future impacts of retirement rates. While precise numbers are not available, page three of the Circular letter states that beginning in Fiscal Year 2011- 2012 rates from the current stock market and real estate losses will impact the City's budget. The City will probably fall under the numbers in column VI of 6 so in Fiscal Year 2011-2012 through Fiscal Year 2014-2015 the CalPERS employer rates will increase cumulatively by 6.9%. The following table is a possible scenario in which the CalPERS rate in Fiscal Year 2014/2015 will increase by 39% over the Fiscal Year 2010/2011 rate.

BACKGROUND As you are no doubt aware the past 18 months have seen significant investment market volatility and asset value declines for all investors, CalPERS included. In an effort to provide an early warning of potential employer rate increases CalPERS issued Circular Letter 310-050-08 on October 6, 2008 in order to inform public agencies of the CalPERS investment policy and strategy during the market decline. That Circular Letter also addressed the impact of financial market volatility on employer contribution rates and on the security of retiree benefits. The dramatic projected increase in employer contribution rates prompted CalPERS to examine our current approach and provide alternatives for consideration that might phase in the impact of investment losses while also allowing some time for the economy to recover. Although our investment horizon is long term we recognize that investment returns over the short term fluctuate and lead to volatile employer contribution rates. To counter this, CalPERS employs a rate smoothing approach which spreads investment returns over a 15 year period. In addition excess returns or shortfalls and other gains and losses to our pension plans are paid for over a 30 year period which resets annually. We do this because we expect these deviations from the long term average to cancel each other out over time: California Public Employees' Retirement System www.calpers.ca.gov «. " i 2_0 10 Circular Letter #200-056-09 -2- August 25, 2009 FISCAL YEAR 2008/2009 INVESTMENT RESULTS CaIPERS has released preliminary (net of fees) investment returns for the 2008/2009 fiscal year of negative 23.4%. The final return for the year will not be known until October when our final Real Estate and Alternative Investment Management (AIM) investment returns are available. Both the Real Estate and AIM returns lag one quarter as is industry standard. Such an extraordinary one-time event has put enormous strains on our economy, businesses, individuals, and local governments. While our smoothing approach works well during normal economic cycles and has produced very stable employer contribution rates, such a unique event calls for a deviation from the usual approach. Rest assured that, despite the downturn, retirement benefits are secure and CalPERS has more than enough assets on hand to pay benefits well into the future. CalPERS continues to manage a well diversified portfolio and maintain a prudent, long term investment strategy in order to ensure the financial security for those we serve. WHAT IS CALIPERS GOING TO DO? To deal with this one time event the CalPERS Board has approved an enhancement to our current smoothing methodology. Use a 3-year phase in of the 2008 — 2009 investment loss and allow some time for the economy to recover. This phased in approach will be achieved by temporarily relaxing the constraints on the smoothed value of assets around the actual market value. This corridor which constrains the smoothed value of assets will be allowed to expand and then contract with the following conditions. Increase the corridor limits for the actuarial value of assets from 80%-120% of market value to 60%-140% of market value on June 30, 2009 which impacts the 2011 — 2012 contribution rate 2. Reduce the corridor limits for the actuarial value of assets to 70%-130% of market value on June 30, 2010 which impacts the 2012 — 2013 contribution rate 3. Return to the 80%-120% of market value corridor limits for the actuarial value of assets on June 30, 2011 and thereafter which impacts the 2013 — 2014 and fiscal years beyond contribution rates Isolate the asset loss outside of the 80% - 120% corridor and pay for it with a disciplined fixed and certain 30 year amortization schedule. It is prudent for 2008-2009 Fiscal Year investment losses to be subject to a more stringent funding schedule and that they should be paid for in full at the end of the 30 years. In this way we will not rely on future investment returns to pay for 2008- 2009 investment losses. California Public Employees' Retirement System www.calpers.ca.gov Circular Letter #200-056-09 -3- August 25, 2009 HOW WILL THIS AFFECT YOUR AGENCY? Below we provide a table that can be used to gauge your agency's expected increase in employer contribution rate under the new smoothing approach due to the recent investment losses. (Note that the increase in employer contribution rates below would be added to your current rate.) The illustrated rates are for a generic public agency based on its volatility index. The volatility index (VI) is the agency's assets divided by payroll and provides a measure of how sensitive an agency's contribution rate will be due to investment returns. (For pooled plans the VI is the volatility index of the entire pool). Your agency's volatility index is provided in your annual actuarial report but a rule of thumb is that a typical miscellaneous plan has a volatility of between 2.5 and 5, an AB616 formula (2.5% @ 55, 2.7% @ 55 and 3% @ 60) miscellaneous plan between 4 and 6 and that of a safety plan between 5 and 10. The chart below shows the projected increase in employer contribution rates for fiscal years 2011-2012 through 2014-2015 assuming CalPERS earns 7.75% after 2008-2009. As an extreme example we have included a plan with a volatility index of 15.

Referring to the table above, under the VI of 4 column, you can expect to see a 1.0% of payroll increase in your current employer contribution rate for FY 2011-2012, an additional 1.6% increase in FY 2012-2013, another 1.7% increase in FY 2013-2014. The cumulative expected increase in your employer contribution rate at the end of the three fiscal years is the sum of these individual increases or 4.3% in this case. Because of our 15 year smoothing method, additional losses will continue to be recognized, but not as severely as the first three years. Without future investment gains, your rate will continue to increase by about .2% per year for 15 years. As identified above, preliminary investment returns do not include the quarter lag for Real Estate and Alternative Investment Management (AIM). However, we have built additional conservatism into the chart above to reflect additional losses which we anticipate will be incorporated into the final return. We have used a negative 28% return to generate the chart above. California Public Employees' Retirement System www.calpers.ca.gov '"..r% o as -:Z a 12 Circular Letter #200-056-09 -4- August 25, 2009 Please be aware these are only estimates and we do not know the final return on investments. Your employer rate will also differ due to your own demographic experience or if you are in a pool, due to the pool's demographic experience. As of the most recent actuarial valuation there are only three public agencies with volatility indexes greater than 15. If your particular agency has a volatility index greater than 15 or if you have other questions you may want to contact your.CalPERS plan actuary. In short the new method will provide short-term relief to local government and school employers while strengthening the long-term financial health of the pension fund. If you wish to discuss these issues further, please contact your CaIPERS actuary at 888 CaIPERS or (888-225-7377). Ronald L.
