Introduced

SB 86 - Currently, public retirement plans cannot implement a benefit increase unless the plan's funded ratio is at least 80% and will not be less than 75% after adoption of the benefit increase. This act specifies that plans use the funded ratio as of the most recent periodic actuarial valuation before implementing a benefit increase. The act also authorizes plans to make benefit increases despite having a funded ratio below the require level if necessary to maintain federal tax deferred status on the employer contributions paid into the plan.

This act also contains an emergency clause.
