Resolution Approving an Amendment to the Memorandum of Understanding Between the City and the Hermosa Beach Management Association

 

Recommendation:

It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached resolution approving an amendment to the Memorandum of Understanding between the City and the Hermosa Beach Management Association.

 

Background:

The City Council approved a memorandum of understanding with the Hermosa Beach Management Association at their meeting of June 27, 2000. The MOU contained a provision that would provide for the 3% @ 50 retirement formula for the Fire Chief. The City’s contract with the Public Employees Retirement System requires that the Fire Chief be provided the same retirement formula as that provided to the other fire safety personnel. At the time the Management MOU was approved the Firefighters’ Association had not completed negotiations. The final result of those negotiations resulted in the implementation of the 3% @ 55 for the sworn fire safety employees instead of the 3% @ 50 formula. The Management Association then requested that their MOU be amended to reflect this change and salary adjustments resulting from the cost difference between the two retirement plans.

The negotiated changes are detailed in the attached proposed amended sections of the MOU.

There is no additional cost for these amendments.
