Signature Contact person: Jim Sharer Phone : e v 244 Supporting data attached: Ward: N/A FUNDING REQUIREMENTS: Amount: none Source: (Acct No.) (Acct Description) Finance: Council Notes: CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO - REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION STAFF REPORT Subiect• Resolution of the Mayor and Common Council amending and restating a Part-time, Seasonal and Temporary (PST) Deferred Compensation Plan document (FICA-Substitute plan or OBRA Plan). Background: The City of San Bernardino established a Part-time, Seasonal, and Temporary (PST) employee deferred compensation plan effective January 1, 1992. The Plan was established for these employees who are not members of the Public Employees Retirement System (PERS) to participate in a deferred compensation plan as an alternative to Social Security taxes. The City is required to have a retirement plan for PST employees since we are not a member of Social Security. The current PST employee plan document now needs to be amended and restated to reflect changes made in accordance with the 1997 changes in the United States Code Section 457, and the Federal government's Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 (EGTRRA). Many of these changes needed to be enacted by January 2008, so the new Plan document is effective as of that date. These changes include: 1. Funds held in a qualifying deferred compensation account will be maintained in a trust. The proposed plan revision establishes the City of San Bernardino Deferred Compensation Advisory Board as the Trust/Custodian of the plan. 2. Employees who separate are allowed to make one modification in their disbursement declaration. 3. The maximum deferral limit for calendar year 2008 is $15,500. 4. Participants within three years of normal retirement age, as defined by the plan document, may contribute up to twice the maximum deferral limit effective in the year the provision is being used. 5. Participants will no longer be subject to taxes on the distributions until the distributions are received. In addition, participants no longer need to choose a payout date when they separate from service, and they will be able to make changes to their payouts once payouts have begun. 6. EGTRRA repeals several required minimum distribution (RMD) requirements that were unique to 457 plans by allowing 457 plans to follow the new RMD rules that are applicable to qualified plans. 7. Eligible distributions from governmental 457 plans may rollover to tax-free 401(k)s and other tax qualified plans, 403(b) annuities, and other types of eligible plans that accept rollovers or an IRA. In addition, a surviving spouse may rollover eligible distributions from a deceased spouse's plan to his or her own eligible plan. 8. EGTRRA changes the criteria for determining when a distribution may be made from a 457 plan from the more restrictive "separation from service" standard to the "severance from employment" standard. Staff recommends that the Resolution be approved. Financial Impact: There is no cost to the City. Recommended Motion: Adopt Resolution. NATIONWIDE RETIREMENT SOLUTIONS, INC.
