RESOLUTION N0. 6201
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA
OPPOSING AB 1098 PERTAINING TO RETIREMENT BENEFITS FOR
POLICEMEN AND FIREMEN
The City Council of the City of Chula Vista does hereby resolve
as follows:
WHEREAS, AB 1098 would provide for retirement for policemen and
firemen at the age of 50 and allow a pension in an amount equal to 2% of
final compensation per year of service, and
WHEREAS, such liberalization of the pension law would be ex-
tremely expensive and is not warranted by any circumstances shown to
date, and
WHEREAS, even though this expense would supposedly be defrayed
by the appropriation of $10 million per year to assist contracting agen-
cies in meeting such increased cost, it is most probable that the cities
will eventually be required to accept the entire burden for financing
such a liberal pension plan.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the
City of Chula Vista does hereby oppose AB 1098 for the reasons set
forth hereinabove as well as their registration of a strong objection
to this further erosion of the home rule principle.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Clerk of the City of Chula
Vista be, and she is hereby authorized and directed to forward certified
copies of this resolution to Senator James Mills, Assemblyman Wadie P.
Deddeh and to all members of the San Diego County legislative delegation.
