Article 13. Integration With Old Age And Survivors Insurance of California Government Code >> Division 4. >> Title 3. >> Part 3. >> Chapter 3. >> Article 13.

(a) Except as provided in subdivision (b), the provisions of this article shall be applicable to any member who is subject to the federal old age and survivors insurance provisions of the federal Social Security Act, when the governing board of the county or district in which the member is employed adopts by majority vote a resolution providing that this article shall be applicable to all members in such county or district who are subject to the federal system. The provisions of this article shall become fully effective and operative on the date specified in such resolution; provided, however, such resolution shall have received prior approval by majority affirmative vote of eligible members employed by the county or district in a referendum conducted in accordance with the provisions of Article 2 of Chapter 2 of Part 4 of Division 5 of Title 2 of this code. Nothing in this article shall be construed as negating or in any way affecting the validity of a referendum vote conducted prior to the enactment of this article, whereby a majority of members employed by a county or district voted in favor of federal old age and survivors insurance coverage on a purely additive or supplemental basis.
  (b) Notwithstanding subdivision (a), this article shall not be applied to any member or to the service, contributions, or benefits of any member that, on or after January 1, 2013, is subject to the provisions of the California Public Employees' Pension Reform Act of 2013. Nothing herein shall preclude a member who is subject to the California Public Employees' Pension Reform Act of 2013 and whose position is included in an agreement between the state and federal government for coverage under the old age and survivors insurance provisions of the federal Social Security Act from also being subject to that federal system as a supplementation system under which the social security benefits shall be in addition to unintegrated retirement benefits.
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the board of supervisors in a county of the 10th class as described by Section 28031 may adopt, by majority vote, a resolution providing that:
  (a) Any general member employed by the county or any district included within the membership of the county retirement association shall have the option, at any time prior to retirement, of having his retirement allowance for service rendered after the date of his exercising this option calculated to equal the following:
  (1) The fraction of one-ninetieth of the first one thousand fifty dollars ($1,050) monthly of the member's final compensation set forth in the table appearing in Section 31676.1 in the column applicable to the member's age at retirement taken to the preceding completed quarter year multiplied by the number of years of creditable service as provided therein.
  (2) The fraction of one-sixtieth of any remaining portion of the member's final compensation set forth in the table appearing in Section 31676.1 in the column applicable to the member's age at retirement taken to the preceding completed quarter year multiplied by the number of years of creditable service. The retirement allowance payable for service rendered prior to the date of the member's election shall be computed in accordance with the provisions of Section 31676.1. The retirement allowance payable for service performed after the effective date of the member's election shall equal the total of paragraphs (1) and (2) of this subdivision. Any member who elects to have his retirement allowance so calculated shall have the definition of "final compensation" in Section 31462 or Section 31462.2, whichever is applicable, applied at the date of retirement regardless of previous service under the provisions of Section 31462.1.
  (b) Any safety member employed by the county or any district included within the membership of the county retirement association shall have the option, at any time prior to retirement, of having his retirement allowance for service rendered after the date of his exercising this option calculated to equal the following:
  (1) The fraction of one seventy-fifth of the first one thousand fifty dollars ($1,050) monthly of the member's final compensation set forth in the table appearing in Section 31664 in the column applicable to the member's age at retirement taken to the preceding completed quarter year multiplied by the number of years of creditable service as provided therein.
  (2) The fraction of one-fiftieth of any remaining portion of the member's final compensation set forth in the table appearing in Section 31664 in the column applicable to the member's age at retirement taken to the preceding completed quarter year multiplied by the number of years of creditable service. The retirement allowance payable for service rendered prior to the date of the safety member's election shall be computed in accordance with the provisions of Section 31664. The retirement allowance payable for service performed after the effective date of the safety member's election shall equal the total of paragraphs (1) and (2) of this subdivision. Any safety member who elects to have his retirement allowance so calculated shall have the definition of "final compensation" in Section 31462 or Section 31462.2, whichever is applicable, applied at the date of retirement regardless of previous service under the provisions of Section 31462.1.
  (c) Before permitting a member to exercise the option authorized by this section, the board of supervisors shall provide that member with a written explanation of the effect on the member's retirement benefits and contributions of exercising that option. No member may rescind his action after exercising the option authorized in this section.
  (d) Any member who elects deferred retirement after becoming subject to the provisions of this section shall receive a retirement allowance determined in accordance with subdivision (a) or subdivision (b) of this section.
  (e) Any member who exercises the option authorized in this section shall continue to contribute as provided for in Article 6 (commencing with Section 31620) or Article 6.8 (commencing with Section 31639), of this chapter, whichever is applicable, a lesser amount as determined by an actuary.
  (f) Any member who exercises the option authorized in this section and who is also eligible and elects or has elected to receive credit in the retirement system for public service as provided in Section 31641.1 shall have the retirement allowance for such public service calculated as if he had not exercised the option authorized in this section.
  (g) Any member who exercises the option authorized in this section and who is also eligible and elects to receive the benefits of Section 31641.5, 31652, or 31831.1 shall have the retirement allowance for that service calculated in accordance with subdivisions (a) or (b) of this section. For the purposes of this section, all contributions, liabilities, actuarial interest rates, and other valuation factors shall be determined on the basis of actuarial assumptions and methods which, in the aggregate, are reasonable and which, in combination, offer the actuary's best estimate of anticipated experience under the system. Any additional employer contributions required under this section shall be computed as a level percentage of member compensation. The additional contribution rate required at the time this section is adopted shall not be less than the sum of (1) the actuarial normal cost, plus (2) the additional contribution required to amortize the increase in accrued liability attributable to benefits elected under this section over a period of not more than 30 years from the date this section becomes effective in the public agency's contract.
Whenever pursuant to the provisions of this article federal old age and survivors insurance provisions of the Social Security Act have been integrated as to members employed by a county or district, the relationship may be converted to a supplementation system under which the social security benefits shall be in addition to unintegrated retirement benefits. The conversion shall take place when the governing body of the county or district adopts by majority vote, a resolution providing that the conversion shall take place; provided, however, the resolution shall have received prior approval by majority affirmative vote of eligible members employed by the county or district in a referendum conducted in accordance with the provisions of Article 2 (commencing with Section 22300), Chapter 2, Part 4, Division 5 of Title 2 of this code. The conversion shall take place and become fully effective and operative on the date specified in the resolution. In the event that the employees of the county or district are divided into more than one coverage group for purposes of the Social Security Act, the conversion may be with respect to all coverage groups or one or more coverage groups as the governing board may determine in the resolution.
It is the intent of the Legislature that the enactment of this article shall authorize persons in positions covered by a retirement system pursuant to this chapter to participate in the federal old age and survivors insurance provisions of the Social Security Act without jeopardizing the continued maintenance of their local system. To this end and notwithstanding any other provisions of this chapter, the provisions of this article, when made applicable by resolution of the governing board, shall supersede or modify any inconsistent provision in this chapter in its application to every member whose position is included in an agreement between the state and federal government for coverage under the old age and survivors insurance provisions of the Social Security Act. The provisions of this chapter are not repealed by this article, however, and except as superseded or modified by this article in their application to members who are covered by old age and survivors insurance, they shall continue to be fully effective and operative. Nothing in this article shall authorize the extension of the federal system to service in any policeman's or fireman's position covered by a separate retirement system unless all of the policemen or firemen are included as a unit without any division of their separate retirement system. When federal benefits are to be extended to any fireman's or policeman's position pursuant to this part they shall vote separately from other members of such system in all cases without regard to their classification as miscellaneous members or otherwise, and notwithstanding Section 22009.1, such system shall constitute a separate retirement system with respect to the positions of policemen or firemen, or both, covered by the system.
"Federal agency" means the Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare, or the predecessor or successor in functions to such officer.
"Federal system" means the old age and survivors insurance provisions of the Social Security Act.
Whenever reference is made to any federal law or regulation or part thereof, the reference applies to all amendments and additions now or hereafter made to such law.
Effective with the approval of this section the service retirement allowances of those heretofore retired shall be recalculated as though Section 31805 had not been enacted.
The provisions of this chapter requiring retirement at age 65 or 70, whichever applies, shall not be applicable to any person who is a member on the effective date of this article when the application of such provision would preclude the member from qualifying for federal benefits, but such member shall be retired forthwith, as provided in Section 31671 or Section 31671.01, upon qualifying for such federal benefits.
The retirement allowance payable under Section 31808, Section 31808.1 or Section 31809 of this code, whichever is applicable, to a person who was a member on the effective date of this article in any county pursuant to this article if not fully insured for old age payments under the federal system at time of retirement shall be not less than that amount for which he would have been eligible if this article were not applicable to the member. The retirement allowance payable under Section 31808, Section 31808.1 or Section 31809 of this code, whichever is applicable, to a person who was a member on the effective date of this article in any county pursuant to this article if fully insured for old age payments under the federal system at time of retirement shall not be less than an amount which, when added to the primary insurance amount payable to him under the federal system at time of retirement will equal the allowance which would otherwise be payable to the member under the provisions of this chapter if this article were not applicable to the member. If the member retires for service prior to retirement age under the federal system and the amount available to him under the provisions of Section 31810 is less than the allowance which would otherwise be payable to the member under the provisions of this chapter if this article were not applicable to the member then the allowance shall be increased to an amount not less than that which would otherwise be payable.
