MOTION PASSES
2007-59 NEW BUSINESS:
A. Proposed COLA for Retirees. FINANCE
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: One of the considerations made when we moved to
MERS was that we would mimic as closely as possible the pension COLA
program in place since the mid-1990's within the structure of MERS. In a nutshell,
the old COLA program provided permanent cost of living increases to
pensioners retired five years or more that were capped at 75% of the CPI.
COLA's were payable only in years when investment performance exceeded
actuarial estimates (8%). Due to lagging investment performance, no COLA
payments have been made for the last two years.
Investment performance has improved and, at this time, we are recommending
approval of a 1.80% COLA increase payable to pensioners retired five years or
more as of 1/1/07. Standard MERS practice is to implement COLA provisions
each January, but they have agreed to implement this COLA for us as of July 1.
We recommend the COLA be divided into two equal parts with 0.90% awarded
7/1 /07 and 0.90% awarded 1/1 /08. Future COLA increases would then be made
in January, if warranted.
The 1.80% COLA is based on a MERS actuarial review of investment
performance, change in the CPI for 2006 and staff discussions with actuaries
concerning the financial condition of the account.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: The proposed COLA adjustment will increase the accrued
liability of the retirees' account $546,870 and leave the account just over 101 %
funded.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED: None
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Authorize MERS to pay a 1.80% COLA to retirees
retired five years as of 1/ 1/07, payable in two equal parts July 1, 2007 and
January 1, 2008. Authorize future COLA adjustments to be made effective each
January l with the next COLA review being January 1, 2009.
Motion by Commissioner Spataro, second by Commissioner Davis to approve
the proposed COLA for retirees.
ROLL VOTE: Ayes: Gawron, Shepherd, Spataro, Warmington, Wierenga, Carter,
and Davis
Nays: None
MOTION PASSES
B. FIRST READING: Smoking at Pere Marquette Beach. CITY MANAGER
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: To approve an ordinance to prohibit smoking at Pere
Marquette Beach from the pier sidewalk south to the handicap walk.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: Minimal costs associated with enforcement of ordinance.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED: None
COMMITTEE REC OMMEN DA TION: The City Commission approved the concept
at their June Worksession.
Motion by Vice Mayor Gawron, second by Commissioner Shepherd to approve
the ordinance to prohibit smoking at Pere Marquette Beach from the pier
sidewalk south to the handicap walk.
ROLL VOTE: Ayes: Warmington, Wierengo, Carter, Davis, Gawron, Shepherd,
and Spataro

Re: Supplemental Valuation for Muskegon, City of (6116), Division(s) 10, 20
Dear Anne:
After conversations with the City of Muskegon, we have been requested to provide additional
information for the attached supplemental with the same date as this letter. The attached supplemental
is a standard MERS supplemental in that the results are based on the results of divisions 10 and 20 as
currently reported in the December 31, 2006 annual valuation.
The attached supplemental values a one-time 2.0% increase in retirement benefits, effective July 1,
2007, for all members in these divisions who have been retired at least five years. The list ofretirees
impacted was provided by the City. Certain members eligible for the retirement benefit increase are in
receipt of a $50 monthly benefit, as payment for opting out of retiree healthcare. As requested by the
City, we have not applied the retirement benefit increase to this $50 monthly benefit. The 2.0%
increase in retirement benefits has been applied to the benefit amounts (net of this $50 monthly
benefit) currently in effect, as reported for the December 31, 2006 annual valuation.
It is our understanding that the City is interested in the increase in cost to the System for various one-
time increases for these groups other than the 2.0% valued in the attached supplemental report. The
cost of the various alternatives can be discerned by prorating the results in the "Difference" column of
the 2.0% increase in retirement benefits. For example, the cost of a one-time 1.0% increase in
retirement benefits is one-half the results of the 2.0% increase shown in the "Difference" column.
Ms. Anne M. Wagner
June 21, 2007
Page2
When considering the implementation of a Flexible E, one could consider Divisions IO and 20
collectively as one. Were the assets and liabilities for Divisions 10 and 20 combined as of December
31, 2006 the results of both the December 31, 2006 annual valuation and the June 21, 2007
supplemental valuation would be changed. These changes are summarized in the table below.
2006 Annual Supplemental Dated
Divisions 10 and 20 Combined Valuation June 21, 2007 Difference
Actuarial Accrued Liability $42,217,465 $42,825,099 $607,634
Valuation Assets $43,237,006 $43,237,006 0
Unfunded Accrued Liability $ (1,019,541) $ (411,907) $607,634
Percent Funded 102.4% 101.0% (1.4%)
Total Regular Employer Contribution
for the 2008 fiscal year $0 $0 NIA
As seen above, the combined Divisions 10 and 20 would be overfunded by $1,019,541 as of
December 31, 2006 with $0 contribution due for the 2008 fiscal year for this group. The increase in
liability associated with the proposed 2% one-time benefit adjustment is $607,634. The impact of the
proposed 2% one-time increase valued in the June 21, 2007 supplemental report would reduce the
combined overfunding to $411,907, and the contribution for the combined Division would remain at
$0 for the 2008 fiscal year.
Please feel free to contact me with comments or questions.
Sincerely,
