RESOLUTION No. A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CREDITING OF CITY EMPLOYEES WHO ARE COVERED BY THE P.E.R.F. PENSION FUND, FOR PRIOR YEARS OF SERVICE WORKED AS ST. JOSEPH COUNTY GOVERNMENTAL EMPLOYEES. WHEREAS, there are a number of city employees who have previously been employed as employees of St. Joseph County and whose past service as an employee by St. Joseph County had not been covered by the present public employee retirement fund; and WHEREAS, under public law 36 of the acts of 1972 it is provided that in order to obtain pension coverage for such employees, the governing body of either the present employer or former employer must submit a statement that they are willing to accept the employer liability for this service; and WHEREAS, there is approximately an equal number of such employees working both in the county and the city gover- nment and therefore the cost of crediting the employee with previous service years worked in the other governmental body would be minimal; and WHEREAS, the city and county officials have agreed to credit its employees with the previous time served with the other governmental body. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Common Council of the City of South Bend, Indiana; SECTION I. That city employees with previous service years in St. Joseph County government be credited with such service years worked in that governmental body for pension purposes.
