The following letter was sent to you in late 1982. While we have had a
satisfactory response from many units, to date we have had no response
from your governing body.
"TO ALL PERF EMPLOYERS: It has been our practice to verify the
number of years of creditable service for an employee with their em-
ployer. The response we receive can create considerable pension lia-
bility and cost for the employer. In the past we have accepted a response
without really knowing if the individual responding has the authority to
do so. It seems unwise to continue with this procedure.
We therefore, are asking each employer, by action of its governing
body, to authorize an individual(s) to respond to such inquiries. In
the future we will accept a response only from an individual who has
been previously authorized. (In the case of elected governmental positions,
the position rather than the individual may be authorized.)
A resolution by your governing authority is the only acceptabie
means of granting such authority. We therefore, request your Board to
keep on file with us a copy of their minutes covering such a resolution.
No response concerning creditable service will be accepted from any
other person.
We are aware this will take some effort, particularly as changes
occur, but the new procedure is the only practical way to protect
employers from unknowingly assuming pension liabilities."
Please be aware that after September 1, 1984 no further retirement
applications can be processed for members of your unit unless the
resolution is in our hands.
