The Positive Impact That Flows From The Reduction In The Unfunded Pension Liability
There is one other very positive impact that flows from the reduction in the unfunded pension liability, namely a corresponding reduction in the annual required employer contribution made to CALPERs.
I have attached the calculation of the required CALPERs contribution the Town must make for FY 2024. As you can see the amount expressed as a percentage of payroll dollars is 29.97%. Assuming a projected payroll of $13,004,007 that would equate to a total dollar payment of $3,897,300. That’s real cash being spent.
