    Mattese Lecque, Chair COMMISSIONERS: Andy Thomas, Vice Chair Collin Bruner Teddy Manos, Secretary-Treasurer Benjy Cooke Tom O’Rourke, Executive Director Lisa King Ravi Sanyal Commission Update __________________________________________________________________________________ September 16, 2015 Commission Meeting – Monday, September 21, 2015, 5:30pm – CCPRC Headquarters Commission Meeting Highlights AGENDA REVIEW What will NOT be on the Agenda A. OPEB Post Employment Benefits discussion At the last Commission meeting I may have actually promised that September will be the meeting where I present staff’s final recommendation for the OPEB policy change. I would respectfully ask for one more month to make sure that we are 100% sure, and not 99% sure, of our recommendation. We must have this right before it comes to you again. Although we think we have it right where we need it, we want to avoid what happened the last time we made a recommendation to you for approval. We intend to inform staff with enough time for them to provide feedback. We want to insure that when we bring this to you, you will be satisfied that this has been thoroughly reviewed. One point to remember is that although this is a policy that affects employees’ benefits that this is being done because of financial implications to the Agency. We very recently received the actuarial report on how various contributions affect our “account.” We would like a little more time to be comfortable with explaining this to the Commission. We anticipate this to be on the October Commission Meeting Agenda. Agenda Highlights: A. We will have officers from the Friends of McLeod on hand to receive a recognition plaque from the Commission.
