Official summary

Abstract published by the legislature (via Open States). Text as published by the legislature; reproduced verbatim.

In accordance with the statutory requirement that the public employees' retirement association (PERA) determine whether the employer contribution rate for the Denver public schools (DPS) division of PERA must be adjusted to assure the equalization of the DPS division's ratio of unfunded actuarial accrued liability over payroll to the PERA school division's ratio of unfunded actuarial accrued liability over payroll at the end of the 30-year period that began on January 1, 2010, beginning on July 1, 2025, the act reduces the total employer contribution rate for the DPS division from 10.4% to 7.4% of salary. In addition, the act: Reduces the percentage of salary that is allocated to the DPS division health care trust fund from 1.02% of member salaries to .20% of member salaries, which will allow PERA to apply the remaining .82% of the allocation to pension liabilities; For 5 years beginning July 1, 2025, excludes the DPS division from the annual allocation of the money that is directly distributed to PERA by the general assembly; and For 5 years beginning July 1, 2025, removes the DPS division from the calculation that PERA annually uses to determine whether an automatic adjustment to member and employer contribution rates and annual increase amounts will occur.(Note: This summary applies to this bill as enacted.)
