Reason for Recommended Action/Background
See Attachment A for changes to the Authorized Position and Salary Resolution
The Public Employees' Pension Reform Act of 2013 (PEPRA) and Government Code 7522.56 & 21224 requires that individuals who retire from a CalPERS agency wait 180 days before being reemployed by the same or another CalPERS Agency unless the individual chooses to reinstate from retirement. Government Code 7522.56 allows exceptions to this 180-day waiting period under certain circumstances including rehiring retirees in an extra help status to perform work of limited term duration and limited term special project work. Staff recommends approval of the attached CalPERS Resolution to allow the hire of one retired annuitant, Timothy McReynolds, for the County Administrator's Office of Emergency Services, to provide continued and critical emergency response support.
