An act to amend Section 20790 of the Government Code, relating to public employees’ retirement.


LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


SB 660, as introduced, Alvarado-Gil. Public Employees’ Retirement System.
The Public Employees’ Retirement Law (PERL) creates the Public Employees’ Retirement System (PERS) for the purpose of providing pensions and benefits to public employees and their beneficiaries and prescribes the rights and duties of employers participating in the system. PERL authorizes public agencies to join PERS pursuant to contract and defines “employer” for purposes of contributions by employers that are contract members of the system.
This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to that definition.
Vote: MAJORITY   Appropriation: NO   Fiscal Committee: NO   Local Program: NO  

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:


SECTION 1.

 Section 20790 of the Government Code is amended to read:

20790.
 Except as provided in Section 20815, “employer” for purposes of this chapter means any a contracting agency, except a contracting agency on and after the effective date of the contracting agency’s election to be subject to any an amendment of this part that provides that it is inapplicable to a contracting agency until the agency elects to be subject thereto.
