Ordinance No. 090969
An ordinance of the City of Gainesville, Florida, amending Division 5 of Article VII of Chapter 2 of the City of Gainesville Code of Ordinances relating  to the City of Gainesville Employees Pension Plan; creating a subsection (n) of Section 2-523, to allow purchase of credited service attributable to certain temporary employment prior to regular employment; making conforming and administrative amendments; providing directions to the codifier; providing a severability clause; providing a repealing clause; and providing an immediate effective date.
 
recommendation
The City Commission adopt the proposed ordinance.
 
explanation
At its meeting on March 18, 2010, the City Commission authorized the City Attorney to draft and the Clerk of the Commission to advertise an ordinance amending the General Employee's Pension Plan to include a Temporary Service Purchase Program.  In general, this amendment allows a member of the Plan to purchase prior service as a temporary employee with the City of Gainesville provided that the member worked for at least six months continuous in a temporary status.  In addition, the amendment requires the member to pay the full actuarial value of the service as determined by the Plan's actuary.  The Plan amendment generally follows the same criteria previously approved for the purchase of military service under Section 2-523(k).  
 
This ordinance requires two hearings.  Should the Commission adopt this ordinance on first reading, second and final reading of the ordinance will be October 7, 2010.
