Employees agree to share the cost of their retirement benefit on a pre-tax basis by paying the full 7% employee contribution. It is the intent of the parties to accommodate employees’ desire that said sums may be deducted on a pre-tax basis as deferred income for federal and state tax purposes. The parties believe the contribution may be deducted on a pre-tax because the City has filed the CalPERS IRS Code section 414(h)(2) resolution. However, any income tax obligations or penalties arising from such tax treatment shall be the exclusive responsibility of the employee. The City shall not be responsible for any adverse tax treatment for the employees. The City has made no representation regarding such tax treatment and employees shall seek such advice from their personal tax advisors regarding such matters.
