2 | | (b-5) Beginning on January 1, 2011, for all purposes under |
3 | | this Code (including without limitation the calculation of |
4 | | benefits and employee contributions), the annual earnings, |
5 | | salary, or wages (based on the plan year) of a member or |
6 | | participant to whom this Section applies shall not exceed |
7 | | $106,800; however, that amount shall annually thereafter be |
8 | | increased by the lesser of (i) 3% of that amount, including all |
9 | | previous adjustments, or (ii) one-half the annual unadjusted |
10 | | percentage increase (but not less than zero) in the consumer |
11 | | price index-u
for the 12 months ending with the September |
12 | | preceding each November 1, including all previous adjustments. |
13 | | For the purposes of this Section, "consumer price index-u" |
14 | | means
the index published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of |
15 | | the United States
Department of Labor that measures the average |
16 | | change in prices of goods and
services purchased by all urban |
17 | | consumers, United States city average, all
items, 1982-84 = |
18 | | 100. The new amount resulting from each annual adjustment
shall |
19 | | be determined by the Public Pension Division of the Department |
20 | | of Insurance and made available to the boards of the retirement |
21 | | systems and pension funds by November 1 of each year. |
22 | | (c) A member or participant is entitled to a retirement
|
23 | | annuity upon written application if he or she has attained age |
24 | | 67 and has at least 10 years of service credit and is otherwise |
25 | | eligible under the requirements of the applicable Article. |
26 | | A member or participant who has attained age 62 and has at |
|
| | HB3411 | - 17 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | least 10 years of service credit and is otherwise eligible |

4 | | of this Section. |
5 | | (d) The retirement annuity of a member or participant who |

8 | | month that the member's age is under age 67. |
9 | | (e) Any retirement annuity or supplemental annuity shall be |
10 | | subject to annual increases on the January 1 occurring either |
11 | | on or after the attainment of age 67 or the first anniversary |

13 | | increase shall be calculated at 3% or one-half the annual |
14 | | unadjusted percentage increase (but not less than zero) in the |
15 | | consumer price index-u for the 12 months ending with the |
16 | | September preceding each November 1, whichever is less, of the |
17 | | originally granted retirement annuity. If the annual |
18 | | unadjusted percentage change in the consumer price index-u for |
19 | | the 12 months ending with the September preceding each November |
20 | | 1 is zero or there is a decrease, then the annuity shall not be |
21 | | increased. |
22 | | (f) The initial survivor's or widow's annuity of an |
23 | | otherwise eligible survivor or widow of a retired member or |
24 | | participant who first became a member or participant on or |
25 | | after January 1, 2011 shall be in the amount of 66 2/3% of the |
26 | | retired member's or participant's retirement annuity at the |
|
| | HB3411 | - 18 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | date of death. In the case of the death of a member or |
2 | | participant who has not retired and who first became a member |
3 | | or participant on or after January 1, 2011, eligibility for a |
4 | | survivor's or widow's annuity shall be determined by the |
5 | | applicable Article of this Code. The initial benefit shall be |
6 | | 66 2/3% of the earned annuity without a reduction due to age. A |
7 | | child's annuity of an otherwise eligible child shall be in the |
8 | | amount prescribed under each Article if applicable. Any |
9 | | survivor's or widow's annuity shall be increased (1) on each |
10 | | January 1 occurring on or after the commencement of the annuity |
11 | | if
the deceased member died while receiving a retirement |
12 | | annuity or (2) in
other cases, on each January 1 occurring |
13 | | after the first anniversary
of the commencement of the annuity. |
14 | | Each annual increase shall be calculated at 3% or one-half the |
15 | | annual unadjusted percentage increase (but not less than zero) |
16 | | in the consumer price index-u for the 12 months ending with the |
17 | | September preceding each November 1, whichever is less, of the |
18 | | originally granted survivor's annuity. If the annual |
19 | | unadjusted percentage change in the consumer price index-u for |
20 | | the 12 months ending with the September preceding each November |
21 | | 1 is zero or there is a decrease, then the annuity shall not be |
22 | | increased. |
23 | | (g) The benefits in Section 14-110 apply only if the person |
24 | | is a State policeman, a fire fighter in the fire protection |
25 | | service of a department, or a security employee of the |
26 | | Department of Corrections or the Department of Juvenile |

2 | | Section 14-110. A person who meets the requirements of this |
3 | | Section is entitled to an annuity calculated under the |
4 | | provisions of Section 14-110, in lieu of the regular or minimum |
5 | | retirement annuity, only if the person has withdrawn from |
6 | | service with not less than 20
years of eligible creditable |
7 | | service and has attained age 60, regardless of whether
the |
8 | | attainment of age 60 occurs while the person is
still in |
9 | | service. |
10 | | (h) If a person who first becomes a member or a participant |
11 | | of a retirement system or pension fund subject to this Section |
12 | | on or after January 1, 2011 is receiving a retirement annuity |
13 | | or retirement pension under that system or fund and becomes a |
14 | | member or participant under any other system or fund created by |
15 | | this Code and is employed on a full-time basis, except for |
16 | | those members or participants exempted from the provisions of |
17 | | this Section under subsection (a) of this Section, then the |
18 | | person's retirement annuity or retirement pension under that |
19 | | system or fund shall be suspended during that employment. Upon |
20 | | termination of that employment, the person's retirement |
21 | | annuity or retirement pension payments shall resume and be |
22 | | recalculated if recalculation is provided for under the |
23 | | applicable Article of this Code. |
24 | | If a person who first becomes a member of a retirement |
25 | | system or pension fund subject to this Section on or after |
26 | | January 1, 2012 and is receiving a retirement annuity or |
|
| | HB3411 | - 20 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | retirement pension under that system or fund and accepts on a |
2 | | contractual basis a position to provide services to a |
3 | | governmental entity from which he or she has retired, then that |
4 | | person's annuity or retirement pension earned as an active |
5 | | employee of the employer shall be suspended during that |
6 | | contractual service. A person receiving an annuity or |
7 | | retirement pension under this Code shall notify the pension |
8 | | fund or retirement system from which he or she is receiving an |
9 | | annuity or retirement pension, as well as his or her |
10 | | contractual employer, of his or her retirement status before |
11 | | accepting contractual employment. A person who fails to submit |
12 | | such notification shall be guilty of a Class A misdemeanor and |
13 | | required to pay a fine of $1,000. Upon termination of that |
14 | | contractual employment, the person's retirement annuity or |
15 | | retirement pension payments shall resume and, if appropriate, |
16 | | be recalculated under the applicable provisions of this Code. |
17 | | (i) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, a |
18 | | person who first becomes a participant of the retirement system |
19 | | established under Article 15 on or after January 1, 2011 shall |
20 | | have the option to enroll in the self-managed plan created |
21 | | under Section 15-158.2 of this Code. |
22 | | (j) In the case of a conflict between the provisions of |
23 | | this Section and any other provision of this Code, the |
24 | | provisions of this Section shall control.

8 | | (c) The foregoing provisions relating to automatic |
9 | | increases are not
applicable to a participant who retires |
10 | | before having made contributions
(at the rate prescribed in |
11 | | Section 2-126) for automatic increases for less
than the |
12 | | equivalent of one full year. However, in order to be eligible |
13 | | for
the automatic increases, such a participant may make |
14 | | arrangements to pay
to the system the amount required to bring |
15 | | the total contributions for the
automatic increase to the |
16 | | equivalent of one year's contributions based upon
his or her |
17 | | last salary.
|
18 | | (d) A participant who terminated service prior to July 1, |
19 | | 1967, with at
least 14 years of service is entitled to an |
20 | | increase in retirement annuity
beginning January, 1976, and to |
21 | | additional increases in January of each
year thereafter.
|
22 | | The initial increase shall be 1 1/2% of the originally |
23 | | granted retirement
annuity multiplied by the number of full |
24 | | years that the annuitant was in
receipt of such annuity prior |
25 | | to January 1, 1972, plus 2% of the originally
granted |
26 | | retirement annuity for each year after that date. The |
|
| | HB3411 | - 29 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | subsequent
annual increases shall be at the rate of 2% of the |
2 | | originally granted
retirement annuity for each year through |
3 | | 1979 and at the rate of 3% for
1980 and thereafter.
|
4 | | (e) Beginning January 1, 1990, all automatic annual |
5 | | increases payable
under this Section shall be calculated as a |
6 | | percentage of the total annuity
payable at the time of the |
7 | | increase, including previous increases granted
under this |
8 | | Article.

|
12 | | (a) A surviving spouse shall be entitled to 66 2/3% of the |
13 | | amount of
retirement annuity to which the participant or |
14 | | annuitant was entitled on
the date of death, without regard to |
15 | | whether the participant had attained
age 55 prior to his or her |
16 | | death, subject to a minimum payment of 10% of
salary. If a |
17 | | surviving spouse, regardless of age, has in his or her care
at |
18 | | the date of death any eligible child or children of the |
19 | | participant, the
survivor's annuity shall be the greater of the |
20 | | following: (1) 66 2/3% of
the amount of retirement annuity to |
21 | | which the participant or annuitant was
entitled on the date of |
22 | | death, or (2) 30% of the participant's salary
increased by 10% |
23 | | of salary on account of each such child, subject to a
total |
24 | | payment for the surviving spouse and children of 50% of salary. |
25 | | If
eligible children survive but there is no surviving spouse, |
|
| | HB3411 | - 30 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | or if the
surviving spouse dies or becomes disqualified by
|
2 | | remarriage while eligible children survive, each
eligible |
3 | | child shall be entitled to an annuity of 20% of salary, subject
|
4 | | to a maximum total payment for all such children of 50% of |
5 | | salary.
|
6 | | However, the survivor's annuity payable under this Section |
7 | | shall not be
less than 100% of the amount of retirement annuity |
8 | | to which the participant
or annuitant was entitled on the date |
9 | | of death, if he or she is survived by
a dependent disabled |
10 | | child.
|
11 | | The salary to be used for determining these benefits shall |
12 | | be the
salary used for determining the amount of retirement |
13 | | annuity as provided
in Section 2-119.01.
|
14 | | (b) Upon the death of a participant after the termination |
15 | | of service or
upon death of an annuitant, the maximum total |
16 | | payment to a surviving spouse
and eligible children, or to |
17 | | eligible children alone if there is no surviving
spouse, shall |
18 | | be 75% of the retirement annuity to which the participant
or |
19 | | annuitant was entitled, unless there is a dependent disabled |
20 | | child
among the survivors.
|
21 | | (c) When a child ceases to be an eligible child, the |
22 | | annuity to that
child, or to the surviving spouse on account of |
23 | | that child, shall thereupon
cease, and the annuity payable to |
24 | | the surviving spouse or other eligible
children shall be |
25 | | recalculated if necessary.
|
26 | | Upon the ineligibility of the last eligible child, the |
|
| | HB3411 | - 31 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | annuity shall
immediately revert to the amount payable upon |
2 | | death of a participant or
annuitant who leaves no eligible |
3 | | children. If the surviving spouse is then
under age 50, the |
4 | | annuity as revised shall be deferred until the attainment
of |
5 | | age 50.
|
6 | | (d) Beginning January 1, 1990, every survivor's annuity |
7 | | shall be increased
(1) on each January 1 occurring on or after |
8 | | the commencement of the annuity if
the deceased member died |
9 | | while receiving a retirement annuity, or (2) in
other cases, on |
10 | | each January 1 occurring on or after the first anniversary
of |
11 | | the commencement of the annuity, by an amount equal to 3% of |
12 | | the current
amount of the annuity, including any previous |
13 | | increases under this Article.
Such increases shall apply |
14 | | without regard to whether the deceased member
was in service on |
15 | | or after the effective date of this amendatory Act of
1991, but |
16 | | shall not accrue for any period prior to January 1, 1990.
|
17 | | (d-5) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article, |
18 | | the initial survivor's annuity of a survivor of a participant |
19 | | who first becomes a participant on or after January 1, 2011 |
20 | | (the effective date of Public Act 96-889) shall be in the |
21 | | amount of 66 2/3% of the amount of the retirement annuity to |
22 | | which the participant or annuitant was entitled on the date of |
23 | | death and shall be increased (1) on each January 1 occurring on |
24 | | or after the commencement of the annuity if
the deceased member |
25 | | died while receiving a retirement annuity or (2) in
other |
26 | | cases, on each January 1 occurring on or after the first |

4 | | determined by the Public Pension Division of the Department of |
5 | | Insurance under subsection (a) of Section 2-108.1, whichever is |
6 | | less, of the originally granted survivor's annuity then being |
7 | | paid . The changes made to this subsection by this amendatory |
8 | | Act of the 98th General Assembly do not apply to any automatic |
9 | | annual increase granted under this subsection before the |
10 | | effective date of this amendatory Act. |
11 | | (e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article, |
12 | | beginning
January 1, 1990, the minimum survivor's annuity |
13 | | payable to any person who
is entitled to receive a survivor's |
14 | | annuity under this Article shall be
$300 per month, without |
15 | | regard to whether or not the deceased participant
was in |
16 | | service on the effective date of this amendatory Act of 1989.
|
17 | | (f) In the case of a proportional survivor's annuity |
18 | | arising under
the Retirement Systems Reciprocal Act where the |
19 | | amount payable by the
System on January 1, 1993 is less than |
20 | | $300 per month, the amount payable
by the System shall be |
21 | | increased beginning on that date by a monthly amount
equal to |
22 | | $2 for each full year that has expired since the annuity began.

funded basis in |
6 | | accordance with actuarial recommendations by the end of State |

|
21 | | contribution shall be calculated each year as a level |

18 | | As of June 30, 2008, the actuarial value of the System's |
19 | | assets shall be equal to the market value of the assets as of |
20 | | that date. In determining the actuarial value of the System's |
21 | | assets for fiscal years after June 30, 2008, any actuarial |
22 | | gains or losses from investment return incurred in a fiscal |
23 | | year shall be recognized in equal annual amounts over the |

as are required of a regular participant, |
15 | | on each additional payment
received as an officer. If the |
16 | | participant serves as an
officer for at least 2 but less than 4 |
17 | | years, he or she shall
contribute an amount equal to the amount |
18 | | that would have been contributed
had the participant served as |
19 | | an officer for 4 years. Persons who serve
as officers in the |
20 | | 87th General Assembly but cannot receive the additional
payment |
21 | | to officers because of the ban on increases in salary during |
22 | | their
terms may nonetheless make contributions based on those |
23 | | additional payments
for the purpose of having the additional |
24 | | payments included in their highest
salary for annuity purposes; |
25 | | however, persons electing to make these
additional |
26 | | contributions must also pay an amount representing the

6 | | preliminary report concerning the proposed certification and |
7 | | identifying, if necessary, recommended changes in actuarial |
8 | | assumptions that the Board must consider before finalizing its |
9 | | certification of the required State contributions. |
10 | | On or before January 15, 2013 and every January 15 |

19 | | the State Actuary's recommended changes, and the fiscal impact |
20 | | of not following the State Actuary's recommended changes on the |

From the effective date of this amendatory Act

20 | | submit vouchers for the remainder of fiscal year 2004 in excess |

22 | | determined
under this Section after taking into consideration |

|
20 | | Sec. 2-162. Application and expiration of new benefit |
21 | | increases. |
22 | | (a) As used in this Section, "new benefit increase" means |
23 | | an increase in the amount of any benefit provided under this |
24 | | Article, or an expansion of the conditions of eligibility for |
25 | | any benefit under this Article, that results from an amendment |
|
| | HB3411 | - 46 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | to this Code that takes effect after the effective date of this |
2 | | amendatory Act of the 94th General Assembly. "New benefit |
3 | | increase", however, does not include any benefit increase |
4 | | resulting from the changes made to this Article by this |
5 | | amendatory Act of the 98th General Assembly. |
6 | | (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Code or any |
7 | | subsequent amendment to this Code, every new benefit increase |
8 | | is subject to this Section and shall be deemed to be granted |
9 | | only in conformance with and contingent upon compliance with |
10 | | the provisions of this Section.
|
11 | | (c) The Public Act enacting a new benefit increase must |
12 | | identify and provide for payment to the System of additional |
13 | | funding at least sufficient to fund the resulting annual |
14 | | increase in cost to the System as it accrues. |
15 | | Every new benefit increase is contingent upon the General |
16 | | Assembly providing the additional funding required under this |
17 | | subsection. The Commission on Government Forecasting and |
18 | | Accountability shall analyze whether adequate additional |
19 | | funding has been provided for the new benefit increase and |
20 | | shall report its analysis to the Public Pension Division of the |
21 | | Department of Financial and Professional Regulation. A new |
22 | | benefit increase created by a Public Act that does not include |
23 | | the additional funding required under this subsection is null |
24 | | and void. If the Public Pension Division determines that the |
25 | | additional funding provided for a new benefit increase under |
26 | | this subsection is or has become inadequate, it may so certify |
|
| | HB3411 | - 47 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | to the Governor and the State Comptroller and, in the absence |
2 | | of corrective action by the General Assembly, the new benefit |
3 | | increase shall expire at the end of the fiscal year in which |
4 | | the certification is made.
|
5 | | (d) Every new benefit increase shall expire 5 years after |
6 | | its effective date or on such earlier date as may be specified |
7 | | in the language enacting the new benefit increase or provided |
8 | | under subsection (c). This does not prevent the General |
9 | | Assembly from extending or re-creating a new benefit increase |
10 | | by law. |
11 | | (e) Except as otherwise provided in the language creating |
12 | | the new benefit increase, a new benefit increase that expires |
13 | | under this Section continues to apply to persons who applied |
14 | | and qualified for the affected benefit while the new benefit |
15 | | increase was in effect and to the affected beneficiaries and |
16 | | alternate payees of such persons, but does not apply to any |
17 | | other person, including without limitation a person who |
18 | | continues in service after the expiration date and did not |
19 | | apply and qualify for the affected benefit while the new |
20 | | benefit increase was in effect.

|
10 | | Sec. 14-114. Automatic increase in retirement annuity.
|
11 | | (a) Except as provided in subsections (a-1) and (a-2), any |
12 | | Any person receiving a retirement annuity under this Article |
13 | | who
retires having attained age 60, or who retires before age |
14 | | 60 having at
least 35 years of creditable service, or who |
15 | | retires on or after January
1, 2001 at an age which, when added |
16 | | to the number of years of his or her
creditable service, equals |
17 | | at least 85, shall, on January 1 next
following the first full |
18 | | year of retirement, have the amount of the then fixed
and |
19 | | payable monthly retirement annuity increased 3%. Any person |
20 | | receiving a
retirement annuity under this Article who retires |
21 | | before attainment of age 60
and with less than (i) 35 years of |
22 | | creditable service if retirement
is before January 1, 2001, or |
23 | | (ii) the number of years of creditable service
which, when |
24 | | added to the member's age, would equal 85, if retirement is on
|
25 | | or after January 1, 2001, shall have the amount of the fixed |
|
| | HB3411 | - 80 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | and payable
retirement annuity increased by 3% on the January 1 |
2 | | occurring on or next
following (1) attainment of age 60, or (2) |
3 | | the first anniversary of retirement,
whichever occurs later. |
4 | | However, for persons who receive the alternative
retirement |
5 | | annuity under Section 14-110, references in this subsection (a) |
6 | | to
attainment of age 60 shall be deemed to refer to attainment |
7 | | of age 55. For a
person receiving early retirement incentives |
8 | | under Section 14-108.3 whose
retirement annuity began after |
9 | | January 1, 1992 pursuant to an extension granted
under |
10 | | subsection (e) of that Section, the first anniversary of |
11 | | retirement shall
be deemed to be January 1, 1993.
For a person |
12 | | who retires on or after June 28, 2001 and on or before October |
13 | | 1, 2001,
and whose retirement annuity is calculated, in whole |
14 | | or in part, under Section
14-110 or subsection (g) or (h) of |
15 | | Section 14-108, the first anniversary of
retirement shall be |
16 | | deemed to be January 1, 2002.
|
17 | | On each January 1 following the date of the initial |
18 | | increase under this
subsection, the employee's monthly |
19 | | retirement annuity shall be increased
by an additional 3%.
|
20 | | Beginning January 1, 1990 and except as provided in |
21 | | subsections (a-1) and (a-2) , all automatic annual increases |
22 | | payable under
this Section shall be calculated as a percentage |
23 | | of the total annuity
payable at the time of the increase, |
24 | | including previous increases granted
under this Article.
|
25 | | (a-1) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article, |
26 | | for a Tier I retiree, the amount of each automatic annual |
|
| | HB3411 | - 81 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | increase in retirement annuity occurring on or after the |
2 | | effective date of this amendatory Act of the 98th General |
3 | | Assembly shall be the lesser of $600 ($750 if the annuity is |
4 | | based primarily upon service as a noncovered employee) or 3% of |
5 | | the total annuity
payable at the time of the increase, |
6 | | including previous increases granted. |
7 | | (a-2) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article, |
8 | | for a Tier I retiree, the monthly retirement annuity shall |
9 | | first be subject to annual increases on the January 1 occurring |
10 | | on or next after the attainment of age 67 or the January 1 |
11 | | occurring on or next after the fifth anniversary of the annuity |
12 | | start date, whichever occurs earlier. If on the effective date |
13 | | of this amendatory Act of the 98th General Assembly a Tier I |
14 | | retiree has already received an annual increase under this |
15 | | Section but does not yet meet the new eligibility requirements |
16 | | of this subsection, the annual increases already received shall |
17 | | continue in force, but no additional annual increase shall be |
18 | | granted until the Tier I retiree meets the new eligibility |
19 | | requirements. |
20 | | (a-3) Notwithstanding Section 1-103.1, subsections (a-1) |
21 | | and (a-2) apply without regard to whether or not the Tier I |
22 | | retiree is in active service under this Article on or after the |
23 | | effective date of this amendatory Act of the 98th General |
24 | | Assembly. |
25 | | (b) The provisions of subsection (a) of this Section shall |
26 | | be
applicable to an employee only if the employee makes the |
|
| | HB3411 | - 82 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | additional
contributions required after December 31, 1969 for |
2 | | the purpose of the
automatic increases for not less than the |
3 | | equivalent of one full year.
If an employee becomes an |
4 | | annuitant before his additional contributions
equal one full |
5 | | year's contributions based on his salary at the date of
|
6 | | retirement, the employee may pay the necessary balance of the
|
7 | | contributions to the system, without interest, and be eligible |
8 | | for the

|
14 | | (d) In addition to other increases which may be provided by |

|
15 | | Sec. 14-131. Contributions by State.
|
16 | | (a) The State shall make contributions to the System by |
17 | | appropriations of
amounts which, together with other employer |
18 | | contributions from trust, federal,
and other funds, employee |
19 | | contributions, investment income, and other income,
will be |
20 | | sufficient to meet the cost of maintaining and administering |
21 | | the System
on a 100% 90% funded basis in accordance with |
22 | | actuarial recommendations by the end of State fiscal year 2043 .
|
23 | | For the purposes of this Section and Section 14-135.08, |
24 | | references to State
contributions refer only to employer |
25 | | contributions and do not include employee
contributions that |
|
| | HB3411 | - 84 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | are picked up or otherwise paid by the State or a
department on |
2 | | behalf of the employee.
|
3 | | (b) The Board shall determine the total amount of State |
4 | | contributions
required for each fiscal year on the basis of the |
5 | | actuarial tables and other
assumptions adopted by the Board, |
6 | | using the formula in subsection (e).
|
7 | | The Board shall also determine a State contribution rate |
8 | | for each fiscal
year, expressed as a percentage of payroll, |
9 | | based on the total required State
contribution for that fiscal |
10 | | year (less the amount received by the System from
|
11 | | appropriations under Section 8.12 of the State Finance Act and |
12 | | Section 1 of the
State Pension Funds Continuing Appropriation |
13 | | Act, if any, for the fiscal year
ending on the June 30 |
14 | | immediately preceding the applicable November 15
certification |
15 | | deadline), the estimated payroll (including all forms of
|
16 | | compensation) for personal services rendered by eligible |
17 | | employees, and the
recommendations of the actuary.
|
18 | | For the purposes of this Section and Section 14.1 of the |
19 | | State Finance Act,
the term "eligible employees" includes |
20 | | employees who participate in the System,
persons who may elect |
21 | | to participate in the System but have not so elected,
persons |
22 | | who are serving a qualifying period that is required for |
23 | | participation,
and annuitants employed by a department as |
24 | | described in subdivision (a)(1) or
(a)(2) of Section 14-111.
|
25 | | (c) Contributions shall be made by the several departments |
26 | | for each pay
period by warrants drawn by the State Comptroller |
|
| | HB3411 | - 85 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | against their respective
funds or appropriations based upon |
2 | | vouchers stating the amount to be so
contributed. These amounts |
3 | | shall be based on the full rate certified by the
Board under |
4 | | Section 14-135.08 for that fiscal year.
From the effective date |
5 | | of this amendatory Act of the 93rd General
Assembly through the |
6 | | payment of the final payroll from fiscal year 2004
|
7 | | appropriations, the several departments shall not make |
8 | | contributions
for the remainder of fiscal year 2004 but shall |
9 | | instead make payments
as required under subsection (a-1) of |
10 | | Section 14.1 of the State Finance Act.
The several departments |
11 | | shall resume those contributions at the commencement of
fiscal |
12 | | year 2005.
|
13 | | (c-1) Notwithstanding subsection (c) of this Section, for |
14 | | fiscal years 2010, 2012, and 2013 only, contributions by the |
15 | | several departments are not required to be made for General |
16 | | Revenue Funds payrolls processed by the Comptroller. Payrolls |
17 | | paid by the several departments from all other State funds must |
18 | | continue to be processed pursuant to subsection (c) of this |
19 | | Section. |
20 | | (c-2) For State fiscal years 2010, 2012, and 2013 only, on |
21 | | or as soon as possible after the 15th day of each month, the |
22 | | Board shall submit vouchers for payment of State contributions |
23 | | to the System, in a total monthly amount of one-twelfth of the |
24 | | fiscal year General Revenue Fund contribution as certified by |
25 | | the System pursuant to Section 14-135.08 of the Illinois |
26 | | Pension Code. |
|
| | HB3411 | - 86 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | (d) If an employee is paid from trust funds or federal |
2 | | funds, the
department or other employer shall pay employer |
3 | | contributions from those funds
to the System at the certified |
4 | | rate, unless the terms of the trust or the
federal-State |
5 | | agreement preclude the use of the funds for that purpose, in
|
6 | | which case the required employer contributions shall be paid by |
7 | | the State.
From the effective date of this amendatory
Act of |
8 | | the 93rd General Assembly through the payment of the final
|
9 | | payroll from fiscal year 2004 appropriations, the department or |
10 | | other
employer shall not pay contributions for the remainder of |
11 | | fiscal year
2004 but shall instead make payments as required |
12 | | under subsection (a-1) of
Section 14.1 of the State Finance |
13 | | Act. The department or other employer shall
resume payment of
|
14 | | contributions at the commencement of fiscal year 2005.
|
15 | | (e) For State fiscal years 2014 through 2043, the minimum |
16 | | contribution
to the System to be made by the State for each |
17 | | fiscal year shall be an amount
determined by the System to be |
18 | | equal to the sum of (1) the State's portion of the projected |
19 | | normal cost for that fiscal year, plus (2) an amount sufficient |
20 | | to bring the total assets of the
System up to 100% of the total |
21 | | actuarial liabilities of the System by the end of
State fiscal |
22 | | year 2043. In making these determinations, the required State
|
23 | | contribution shall be calculated each year as a level |
24 | | percentage of payroll
over the years remaining to and including |
25 | | fiscal year 2043 and shall be
determined under the projected |
26 | | unit credit actuarial cost method. |
|
| | HB3411 | - 87 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | For State fiscal years 2012 and 2013 through 2045 , the minimum |
2 | | contribution
to the System to be made by the State for each |
3 | | fiscal year shall be an amount
determined by the System to be |
4 | | sufficient to bring the total assets of the
System up to 90% of |
5 | | the total actuarial liabilities of the System by the end
of |
6 | | State fiscal year 2045. In making these determinations, the |
7 | | required State
contribution shall be calculated each year as a |
8 | | level percentage of payroll
over the years remaining to and |
9 | | including fiscal year 2045 and shall be
determined under the |
10 | | projected unit credit actuarial cost method.
|
11 | | For State fiscal years 1996 through 2005, the State |
12 | | contribution to
the System, as a percentage of the applicable |
13 | | employee payroll, shall be
increased in equal annual increments |
14 | | so that by State fiscal year 2011, the
State is contributing at |
15 | | the rate required under this Section; except that
(i) for State |
16 | | fiscal year 1998, for all purposes of this Code and any other
|
17 | | law of this State, the certified percentage of the applicable |
18 | | employee payroll
shall be 5.052% for employees earning eligible |
19 | | creditable service under Section
14-110 and 6.500% for all |
20 | | other employees, notwithstanding any contrary
certification |
21 | | made under Section 14-135.08 before the effective date of this
|
22 | | amendatory Act of 1997, and (ii)
in the following specified |
23 | | State fiscal years, the State contribution to
the System shall |
24 | | not be less than the following indicated percentages of the
|
25 | | applicable employee payroll, even if the indicated percentage |
26 | | will produce a
State contribution in excess of the amount |
|
| | HB3411 | - 88 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | otherwise required under this
subsection and subsection (a):
|
2 | | 9.8% in FY 1999;
10.0% in FY 2000;
10.2% in FY 2001;
10.4% in FY |
3 | | 2002;
10.6% in FY 2003; and
10.8% in FY 2004.
|
4 | | Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article, the |
5 | | total required State
contribution to the System for State |
6 | | fiscal year 2006 is $203,783,900.
|
7 | | Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article, the |
8 | | total required State
contribution to the System for State |
9 | | fiscal year 2007 is $344,164,400.
|
10 | | For each of State fiscal years 2008 through 2009, the State |
11 | | contribution to
the System, as a percentage of the applicable |
12 | | employee payroll, shall be
increased in equal annual increments |
13 | | from the required State contribution for State fiscal year |
14 | | 2007, so that by State fiscal year 2011, the
State is |
15 | | contributing at the rate otherwise required under this Section.
|
16 | | Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article, the |
17 | | total required State General Revenue Fund contribution for |
18 | | State fiscal year 2010 is $723,703,100 and shall be made from |
19 | | the proceeds of bonds sold in fiscal year 2010 pursuant to |
20 | | Section 7.2 of the General Obligation Bond Act, less (i) the |
21 | | pro rata share of bond sale expenses determined by the System's |
22 | | share of total bond proceeds, (ii) any amounts received from |
23 | | the General Revenue Fund in fiscal year 2010, and (iii) any |
24 | | reduction in bond proceeds due to the issuance of discounted |
25 | | bonds, if applicable. |
26 | | Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article, the
|
|
| | HB3411 | - 89 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | total required State General Revenue Fund contribution for
|
2 | | State fiscal year 2011 is the amount recertified by the System |
3 | | on or before April 1, 2011 pursuant to Section 14-135.08 and |
4 | | shall be made from
the proceeds of bonds sold in fiscal year |
5 | | 2011 pursuant to
Section 7.2 of the General Obligation Bond |
6 | | Act, less (i) the
pro rata share of bond sale expenses |
7 | | determined by the System's
share of total bond proceeds, (ii) |
8 | | any amounts received from
the General Revenue Fund in fiscal |
9 | | year 2011, and (iii) any
reduction in bond proceeds due to the |
10 | | issuance of discounted
bonds, if applicable. |
11 | | Beginning in State fiscal year 2044, the minimum State |
12 | | contribution for each fiscal year shall be the amount needed to |
13 | | maintain the total assets of the System at 100% of the total |
14 | | actuarial liabilities of the System. |
15 | | Beginning in State fiscal year 2046, the minimum State |
16 | | contribution for
each fiscal year shall be the amount needed to |
17 | | maintain the total assets of
the System at 90% of the total |
18 | | actuarial liabilities of the System.
|
19 | | Amounts received by the System pursuant to Section 25 of |
20 | | the Budget Stabilization Act or Section 8.12 of the State |
21 | | Finance Act in any fiscal year do not reduce and do not |
22 | | constitute payment of any portion of the minimum State |
23 | | contribution required under this Article in that fiscal year. |
24 | | Such amounts shall not reduce, and shall not be included in the |
25 | | calculation of, the required State contributions under this |
26 | | Article in any future year until the System has reached a |
|
| | HB3411 | - 90 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | funding ratio of at least 100% 90% . A reference in this Article |
2 | | to the "required State contribution" or any substantially |
3 | | similar term does not include or apply to any amounts payable |
4 | | to the System under Section 25 of the Budget Stabilization Act.
|
5 | | Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, the |
6 | | required State
contribution for State fiscal year 2005 and for |
7 | | fiscal year 2008 and each fiscal year thereafter through State |
8 | | fiscal year 2013 , as
calculated under this Section and
|
9 | | certified under Section 14-135.08, shall not exceed an amount |
10 | | equal to (i) the
amount of the required State contribution that |
11 | | would have been calculated under
this Section for that fiscal |
12 | | year if the System had not received any payments
under |
13 | | subsection (d) of Section 7.2 of the General Obligation Bond |
14 | | Act, minus
(ii) the portion of the State's total debt service |
15 | | payments for that fiscal
year on the bonds issued in fiscal |
16 | | year 2003 for the purposes of that Section 7.2, as determined
|
17 | | and certified by the Comptroller, that is the same as the |
18 | | System's portion of
the total moneys distributed under |
19 | | subsection (d) of Section 7.2 of the General
Obligation Bond |
20 | | Act. In determining this maximum for State fiscal years 2008 |
21 | | through 2010, however, the amount referred to in item (i) shall |
22 | | be increased, as a percentage of the applicable employee |
23 | | payroll, in equal increments calculated from the sum of the |
24 | | required State contribution for State fiscal year 2007 plus the |
25 | | applicable portion of the State's total debt service payments |
26 | | for fiscal year 2007 on the bonds issued in fiscal year 2003 |
|
| | HB3411 | - 91 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | for the purposes of Section 7.2 of the General
Obligation Bond |
2 | | Act, so that, by State fiscal year 2011, the
State is |
3 | | contributing at the rate otherwise required under this Section.
|
4 | | (f) After the submission of all payments for eligible |
5 | | employees
from personal services line items in fiscal year 2004 |
6 | | have been made,
the Comptroller shall provide to the System a |
7 | | certification of the sum
of all fiscal year 2004 expenditures |
8 | | for personal services that would
have been covered by payments |
9 | | to the System under this Section if the
provisions of this |
10 | | amendatory Act of the 93rd General Assembly had not been
|
11 | | enacted. Upon
receipt of the certification, the System shall |
12 | | determine the amount
due to the System based on the full rate |
13 | | certified by the Board under
Section 14-135.08 for fiscal year |
14 | | 2004 in order to meet the State's
obligation under this |
15 | | Section. The System shall compare this amount
due to the amount |
16 | | received by the System in fiscal year 2004 through
payments |
17 | | under this Section and under Section 6z-61 of the State Finance |
18 | | Act.
If the amount
due is more than the amount received, the |
19 | | difference shall be termed the
"Fiscal Year 2004 Shortfall" for |
20 | | purposes of this Section, and the
Fiscal Year 2004 Shortfall |
21 | | shall be satisfied under Section 1.2 of the State
Pension Funds |
22 | | Continuing Appropriation Act. If the amount due is less than |
23 | | the
amount received, the
difference shall be termed the "Fiscal |
24 | | Year 2004 Overpayment" for purposes of
this Section, and the |
25 | | Fiscal Year 2004 Overpayment shall be repaid by
the System to |
26 | | the Pension Contribution Fund as soon as practicable
after the |
|
| | HB3411 | - 92 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | certification.
|
2 | | (g) For purposes of determining the required State |
3 | | contribution to the System, the value of the System's assets |
4 | | shall be equal to the actuarial value of the System's assets, |
5 | | which shall be calculated as follows: |
6 | | As of June 30, 2008, the actuarial value of the System's |
7 | | assets shall be equal to the market value of the assets as of |
8 | | that date. In determining the actuarial value of the System's |
9 | | assets for fiscal years after June 30, 2008, any actuarial |
10 | | gains or losses from investment return incurred in a fiscal |
11 | | year shall be recognized in equal annual amounts over the |
12 | | 5-year period following that fiscal year. |
13 | | (h) For purposes of determining the required State |
14 | | contribution to the System for a particular year, the actuarial |
15 | | value of assets shall be assumed to earn a rate of return equal |
16 | | to the System's actuarially assumed rate of return. |
17 | | (i) After the submission of all payments for eligible |
18 | | employees from personal services line items paid from the |
19 | | General Revenue Fund in fiscal year 2010 have been made, the |
20 | | Comptroller shall provide to the System a certification of the |
21 | | sum of all fiscal year 2010 expenditures for personal services |
22 | | that would have been covered by payments to the System under |
23 | | this Section if the provisions of this amendatory Act of the |
24 | | 96th General Assembly had not been enacted. Upon receipt of the |
25 | | certification, the System shall determine the amount due to the |
26 | | System based on the full rate certified by the Board under |
|
| | HB3411 | - 93 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | Section 14-135.08 for fiscal year 2010 in order to meet the |
2 | | State's obligation under this Section. The System shall compare |
3 | | this amount due to the amount received by the System in fiscal |
4 | | year 2010 through payments under this Section. If the amount |
5 | | due is more than the amount received, the difference shall be |
6 | | termed the "Fiscal Year 2010 Shortfall" for purposes of this |
7 | | Section, and the Fiscal Year 2010 Shortfall shall be satisfied |
8 | | under Section 1.2 of the State Pension Funds Continuing |
9 | | Appropriation Act. If the amount due is less than the amount |
10 | | received, the difference shall be termed the "Fiscal Year 2010 |
11 | | Overpayment" for purposes of this Section, and the Fiscal Year |
12 | | 2010 Overpayment shall be repaid by the System to the General |
13 | | Revenue Fund as soon as practicable after the certification. |
14 | | (j) After the submission of all payments for eligible |
15 | | employees from personal services line items paid from the |
16 | | General Revenue Fund in fiscal year 2011 have been made, the |
17 | | Comptroller shall provide to the System a certification of the |
18 | | sum of all fiscal year 2011 expenditures for personal services |
19 | | that would have been covered by payments to the System under |
20 | | this Section if the provisions of this amendatory Act of the |
21 | | 96th General Assembly had not been enacted. Upon receipt of the |
22 | | certification, the System shall determine the amount due to the |
23 | | System based on the full rate certified by the Board under |
24 | | Section 14-135.08 for fiscal year 2011 in order to meet the |
25 | | State's obligation under this Section. The System shall compare |
26 | | this amount due to the amount received by the System in fiscal |
|
| | HB3411 | - 94 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | year 2011 through payments under this Section. If the amount |
2 | | due is more than the amount received, the difference shall be |
3 | | termed the "Fiscal Year 2011 Shortfall" for purposes of this |
4 | | Section, and the Fiscal Year 2011 Shortfall shall be satisfied |
5 | | under Section 1.2 of the State Pension Funds Continuing |
6 | | Appropriation Act. If the amount due is less than the amount |
7 | | received, the difference shall be termed the "Fiscal Year 2011 |
8 | | Overpayment" for purposes of this Section, and the Fiscal Year |
9 | | 2011 Overpayment shall be repaid by the System to the General |
10 | | Revenue Fund as soon as practicable after the certification. |
11 | | (k) For fiscal years 2012 and 2013 only, after the |
12 | | submission of all payments for eligible employees from personal |
13 | | services line items paid from the General Revenue Fund in the |
14 | | fiscal year have been made, the Comptroller shall provide to |
15 | | the System a certification of the sum of all expenditures in |
16 | | the fiscal year for personal services. Upon receipt of the |
17 | | certification, the System shall determine the amount due to the |
18 | | System based on the full rate certified by the Board under |
19 | | Section 14-135.08 for the fiscal year in order to meet the |
20 | | State's obligation under this Section. The System shall compare |
21 | | this amount due to the amount received by the System for the |
22 | | fiscal year. If the amount due is more than the amount |
23 | | received, the difference shall be termed the "Prior Fiscal Year |
24 | | Shortfall" for purposes of this Section, and the Prior Fiscal |
25 | | Year Shortfall shall be satisfied under Section 1.2 of the |
26 | | State Pension Funds Continuing Appropriation Act. If the amount |
|
| | HB3411 | - 95 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | due is less than the amount received, the difference shall be |
2 | | termed the "Prior Fiscal Year Overpayment" for purposes of this |
3 | | Section, and the Prior Fiscal Year Overpayment shall be repaid |
4 | | by the System to the General Revenue Fund as soon as |
5 | | practicable after the certification. |

12 | | (a) The payment of the required department
contributions, |
13 | | all allowances,
annuities, benefits granted under this |
14 | | Article, and all expenses of
administration of the system are |
15 | | obligations of the State of Illinois to
the extent specified in |
16 | | this Article.
|
17 | | (b) All income of the system
shall be credited to a |
18 | | separate account for this system in the State
treasury and |
19 | | shall be used to pay allowances, annuities, benefits and
|
20 | | administration expense.
|
21 | | (c) Beginning July 1, 2013, the State shall be |
22 | | contractually obligated to contribute to the System under |
23 | | Section 14-131 in each State fiscal year an amount not less |
24 | | than the sum of (i) the State's normal cost for that year and
|
25 | | (ii) the portion of the unfunded accrued liability assigned to |

|
|
1 | | that year by law in accordance with a schedule that distributes |
2 | | payments equitably over a reasonable period of time and in |
3 | | accordance with accepted actuarial practices. The obligations |
4 | | created under this subsection (c) are contractual obligations |
5 | | protected and enforceable under Article I, Section 16 and |
6 | | Article XIII, Section 5 of the Illinois Constitution. |
7 | | Notwithstanding any other provision of law, if the State |
8 | | fails to pay in a State fiscal year the amount guaranteed under |
9 | | this subsection, the System may bring a mandamus action in the |
10 | | Circuit Court of Sangamon County to compel the State to make |
11 | | that payment, irrespective of other remedies that
may be |
12 | | available to the System. In ordering the State to make the |
13 | | required payment, the court may order a reasonable payment |
14 | | schedule to enable the State to make the required payment |
15 | | without significantly imperiling the public health, safety, or |
16 | | welfare. |
17 | | Any payments required to be made by the State pursuant to |
18 | | this subsection (c)
are expressly subordinated to the payment |
19 | | of the principal, interest, and premium, if any, on any
bonded |
20 | | debt obligation of the State or any other State-created entity, |
21 | | either currently outstanding or to
be issued, for which the |
22 | | source of repayment or security thereon is derived directly or |
23 | | indirectly from
tax revenues collected by the State or any |
24 | | other State-created entity. Payments on such bonded
|
25 | | obligations include any statutory fund transfers or other |
26 | | prefunding mechanisms or formulas set forth,
now or hereafter, |

related to such bonded obligations, |

|
4 | | obligations. |

5 | | increases. |
6 | | (a) As used in this Section, "new benefit increase" means |
7 | | an increase in the amount of any benefit provided under this |
8 | | Article, or an expansion of the conditions of eligibility for |
9 | | any benefit under this Article, that results from an amendment |
10 | | to this Code that takes effect after June 1, 2005 (the |
11 | | effective date of Public Act 94-4). "New benefit increase", |
12 | | however, does not include any benefit increase resulting from |
13 | | the changes made to this Article by Public Act 96-37 or by this |
14 | | amendatory Act of the 98th 96th General Assembly.
|
15 | | (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Code or any |
16 | | subsequent amendment to this Code, every new benefit increase |
17 | | is subject to this Section and shall be deemed to be granted |
18 | | only in conformance with and contingent upon compliance with |
19 | | the provisions of this Section.
|
20 | | (c) The Public Act enacting a new benefit increase must |
21 | | identify and provide for payment to the System of additional |
22 | | funding at least sufficient to fund the resulting annual |
23 | | increase in cost to the System as it accrues. |
24 | | Every new benefit increase is contingent upon the General |
25 | | Assembly providing the additional funding required under this |
|
| | HB3411 | - 103 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | subsection. The Commission on Government Forecasting and |
2 | | Accountability shall analyze whether adequate additional |
3 | | funding has been provided for the new benefit increase and |
4 | | shall report its analysis to the Public Pension Division of the |
5 | | Department of Financial and Professional Regulation. A new |
6 | | benefit increase created by a Public Act that does not include |
7 | | the additional funding required under this subsection is null |
8 | | and void. If the Public Pension Division determines that the |
9 | | additional funding provided for a new benefit increase under |
10 | | this subsection is or has become inadequate, it may so certify |
11 | | to the Governor and the State Comptroller and, in the absence |
12 | | of corrective action by the General Assembly, the new benefit |
13 | | increase shall expire at the end of the fiscal year in which |
14 | | the certification is made.
|
15 | | (d) Every new benefit increase shall expire 5 years after |
16 | | its effective date or on such earlier date as may be specified |
17 | | in the language enacting the new benefit increase or provided |
18 | | under subsection (c). This does not prevent the General |
19 | | Assembly from extending or re-creating a new benefit increase |
20 | | by law. |
21 | | (e) Except as otherwise provided in the language creating |
22 | | the new benefit increase, a new benefit increase that expires |
23 | | under this Section continues to apply to persons who applied |
24 | | and qualified for the affected benefit while the new benefit |
25 | | increase was in effect and to the affected beneficiaries and |
26 | | alternate payees of such persons, but does not apply to any |

|
|
1 | | expressed in the form
of a single-life annuity, shall be |
2 | | determined by whichever of the following
rules is applicable |
3 | | and provides the largest annuity:
|
4 | | Rule 1: The retirement annuity shall be 1.67% of final rate |
5 | | of earnings for
each of the first 10 years of service, 1.90% |

|
9 | | after January 1, 1998, 2.2% of the final rate of earnings for |
10 | | each year of
service.
|
11 | | Rule 2: The retirement annuity shall be the sum of the |
12 | | following,
determined from amounts credited to the participant |
13 | | in accordance with the
actuarial tables and the effective rate |
14 | | of interest in effect at the
time the retirement annuity |
15 | | begins:
|
16 | | (i) the normal annuity which can be provided on an |
17 | | actuarially
equivalent basis, by the accumulated normal |
18 | | contributions as of
the date the annuity begins;
|
19 | | (ii) an annuity from employer contributions of an |
20 | | amount equal to that
which can be provided on an |
21 | | actuarially equivalent basis from the accumulated
normal |
22 | | contributions made by the participant under Section |
23 | | 15-113.6 and Section
15-113.7 plus 1.4 times all other |
24 | | accumulated normal contributions made by
the participant; |
25 | | and
|
26 | | (iii) the annuity that can be provided on an |
|
| | HB3411 | - 115 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | actuarially equivalent basis
from the entire contribution |
2 | | made by the participant under Section 15-113.3.
|
3 | | For the purpose of calculating an annuity under this Rule |
4 | | 2, the contribution required under subsection (c-5) of Section |
5 | | 15-157 shall not be considered when determining the |
6 | | participant's accumulated normal contributions under clause |
7 | | (i) or the employer contribution under clause (ii). |
8 | | With respect to a police officer or firefighter who retires |
9 | | on or after
August 14, 1998, the accumulated normal |
10 | | contributions taken into account under
clauses (i) and (ii) of |
11 | | this Rule 2 shall include the additional normal
contributions |
12 | | made by the police officer or firefighter under Section
|
13 | | 15-157(a).
|
14 | | The amount of a retirement annuity calculated under this |
15 | | Rule 2 shall
be computed solely on the basis of the |
16 | | participant's accumulated normal
contributions, as specified |
17 | | in this Rule and defined in Section 15-116.
Neither an employee |
18 | | or employer contribution for early retirement under
Section |
19 | | 15-136.2 nor any other employer contribution shall be used in |
20 | | the
calculation of the amount of a retirement annuity under |
21 | | this Rule 2.
|
22 | | This amendatory Act of the 91st General Assembly is a |
23 | | clarification of
existing law and applies to every participant |
24 | | and annuitant without regard to
whether status as an employee |
25 | | terminates before the effective date of this
amendatory Act.
|
26 | | This Rule 2 does not apply to a person who first becomes an |
|
| | HB3411 | - 116 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |

2 | | Rule 3: The retirement annuity of a participant who is |

not to exceed 30, multiplied by |
6 | | (1) $96 if the participant's final rate
of earnings is less |
7 | | than $3,500, (2) $108 if the final rate of earnings is
at least |
8 | | $3,500 but less than $4,500, (3) $120 if the final rate of |

13 | | earnings is at least $7,500 but less
than $8,500, (7) $168 if |
14 | | the final rate of earnings is at least $8,500 but
less than |
15 | | $9,500, and (8) $180 if the final rate of earnings is $9,500 or
|
16 | | more, except that the annuity for those persons having made an |
17 | | election under
Section 15-154(a-1) shall be calculated and |
18 | | payable under the portable
retirement benefit program pursuant |
19 | | to the provisions of Section 15-136.4.
|
20 | | Rule 4: A participant who is at least age 50 and has 25 or |
21 | | more years of
service as a police officer or firefighter, and a |
22 | | participant who is age 55 or
over and has at least 20 but less |
23 | | than 25 years of service as a police officer
or firefighter, |
24 | | shall be entitled to a retirement annuity of 2 1/4% of the
|
25 | | final rate of earnings for each of the first 10 years of |
26 | | service as a police
officer or firefighter, 2 1/2% for each of |
|
| | HB3411 | - 117 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | the next 10 years of service as a
police officer or |
2 | | firefighter, and 2 3/4% for each year of service as a police
|
3 | | officer or firefighter in excess of 20. The retirement annuity |
4 | | for all other
service shall be computed under Rule 1.
|
5 | | For purposes of this Rule 4, a participant's service as a |
6 | | firefighter
shall also include the following:
|
7 | | (i) service that is performed while the person is an |
8 | | employee under
subsection (h) of Section 15-107; and
|
9 | | (ii) in the case of an individual who was a |
10 | | participating employee
employed in the fire department of |
11 | | the University of Illinois's
Champaign-Urbana campus |
12 | | immediately prior to the elimination of that fire
|
13 | | department and who immediately after the elimination of |
14 | | that fire department
transferred to another job with the |
15 | | University of Illinois, service performed
as an employee of |
16 | | the University of Illinois in a position other than police
|
17 | | officer or firefighter, from the date of that transfer |
18 | | until the employee's
next termination of service with the |
19 | | University of Illinois.

21 | | early
retirement under the provisions of Section 15-136.2 and |
22 | | who, on or before
February 16, 1995, brought administrative |
23 | | proceedings pursuant to the
administrative rules adopted by the |
24 | | System to challenge the calculation of his
or her retirement |
25 | | annuity shall be the sum of the following, determined from
|
26 | | amounts credited to the participant in accordance with the |
|
| | HB3411 | - 118 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | actuarial tables and
the prescribed rate of interest in effect |
2 | | at the time the retirement annuity
begins:
|
3 | | (i) the normal annuity which can be provided on an |
4 | | actuarially equivalent
basis, by the accumulated normal |
5 | | contributions as of the date the annuity
begins; and
|
6 | | (ii) an annuity from employer contributions of an |
7 | | amount equal to that
which can be provided on an |
8 | | actuarially equivalent basis from the accumulated
normal |
9 | | contributions made by the participant under Section |
10 | | 15-113.6 and Section
15-113.7 plus 1.4 times all other |
11 | | accumulated normal contributions made by the
participant; |
12 | | and
|
13 | | (iii) an annuity which can be provided on an |
14 | | actuarially equivalent basis
from the employee |
15 | | contribution for early retirement under Section 15-136.2, |
16 | | and
an annuity from employer contributions of an amount |
17 | | equal to that which can be
provided on an actuarially |
18 | | equivalent basis from the employee contribution for
early |
19 | | retirement under Section 15-136.2.
|
20 | | In no event shall a retirement annuity under this Rule 5 be |
21 | | lower than the
amount obtained by adding (1) the monthly amount |
22 | | obtained by dividing the
combined employee and employer |
23 | | contributions made under Section 15-136.2 by the
System's |
24 | | annuity factor for the age of the participant at the beginning |
25 | | of the
annuity payment period and (2) the amount equal to the |
26 | | participant's annuity if
calculated under Rule 1, reduced under |
|
| | HB3411 | - 119 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | Section 15-136(b) as if no
contributions had been made under |
2 | | Section 15-136.2.
|
3 | | With respect to a participant who is qualified for a |
4 | | retirement annuity under
this Rule 5 whose retirement annuity |
5 | | began before the effective date of this
amendatory Act of the |
6 | | 91st General Assembly, and for whom an employee
contribution |
7 | | was made under Section 15-136.2, the System shall recalculate |
8 | | the
retirement annuity under this Rule 5 and shall pay any |
9 | | additional amounts due
in the manner provided in Section |
10 | | 15-186.1 for benefits mistakenly set too low.
|
11 | | The amount of a retirement annuity calculated under this |
12 | | Rule 5 shall be
computed solely on the basis of those |
13 | | contributions specifically set forth in
this Rule 5. Except as |
14 | | provided in clause (iii) of this Rule 5, neither an
employee |
15 | | nor employer contribution for early retirement under Section |
16 | | 15-136.2,
nor any other employer contribution, shall be used in |
17 | | the calculation of the
amount of a retirement annuity under |
18 | | this Rule 5.
|
19 | | The General Assembly has adopted the changes set forth in |
20 | | Section 25 of this
amendatory Act of the 91st General Assembly |
21 | | in recognition that the decision of
the Appellate Court for the |
22 | | Fourth District in Mattis v. State Universities
Retirement |
23 | | System et al. might be deemed to give some right to the |
24 | | plaintiff in
that case. The changes made by Section 25 of this |
25 | | amendatory Act of the 91st
General Assembly are a legislative |
26 | | implementation of the decision of the
Appellate Court for the |
|
| | HB3411 | - 120 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | Fourth District in Mattis v. State Universities
Retirement |
2 | | System et al. with respect to that plaintiff.
|
3 | | The changes made by Section 25 of this amendatory Act of |
4 | | the 91st General
Assembly apply without regard to whether the |
5 | | person is in service as an
employee on or after its effective |
6 | | date.
|
7 | | (b) The retirement annuity provided under Rules 1 and 3 |
8 | | above shall be
reduced by 1/2 of 1% for each month the |
9 | | participant is under age 60 at the
time of retirement. However, |
10 | | this reduction shall not apply in the following
cases:
|
11 | | (1) For a disabled participant whose disability |
12 | | benefits have been
discontinued because he or she has |
13 | | exhausted eligibility for disability
benefits under clause |
14 | | (6) of Section 15-152;
|
15 | | (2) For a participant who has at least the number of |
16 | | years of service
required to retire at any age under |
17 | | subsection (a) of Section 15-135; or
|
18 | | (3) For that portion of a retirement annuity which has |
19 | | been provided on
account of service of the participant |
20 | | during periods when he or she performed
the duties of a |
21 | | police officer or firefighter, if these duties were |
22 | | performed
for at least 5 years immediately preceding the |
23 | | date the retirement annuity
is to begin.
|
24 | | (c) The maximum retirement annuity provided under Rules 1, |
25 | | 2, 4,
and 5
shall be the lesser of (1) the annual limit of |
26 | | benefits as specified in
Section 415 of the Internal Revenue |
|
| | HB3411 | - 121 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | Code of 1986, as such Section may be
amended from time to time |
2 | | and as such benefit limits shall be adjusted by
the |
3 | | Commissioner of Internal Revenue, and (2) 80% of final rate of
|
4 | | earnings.
|
5 | | (d) Subject to the provisions of subsections (d-1) and |
6 | | (d-2), an An annuitant whose status as an employee terminates |
7 | | after August 14,
1969 shall receive automatic increases in his |
8 | | or her retirement annuity as
follows:
|
9 | | Effective January 1 immediately following the date the |
10 | | retirement annuity
begins, the annuitant shall receive an |
11 | | increase in his or her monthly
retirement annuity of 0.125% of |
12 | | the monthly retirement annuity provided under
Rule 1, Rule 2, |
13 | | Rule 3, Rule 4, or Rule 5, contained in this
Section, |
14 | | multiplied by
the number of full months which elapsed from the |
15 | | date the retirement annuity
payments began to January 1, 1972, |
16 | | plus 0.1667% of such annuity, multiplied by
the number of full |
17 | | months which elapsed from January 1, 1972, or the date the
|
18 | | retirement annuity payments began, whichever is later, to |
19 | | January 1, 1978, plus
0.25% of such annuity multiplied by the |
20 | | number of full months which elapsed
from January 1, 1978, or |
21 | | the date the retirement annuity payments began,
whichever is |
22 | | later, to the effective date of the increase.
|
23 | | The annuitant shall receive an increase in his or her |
24 | | monthly retirement
annuity on each January 1 thereafter during |
25 | | the annuitant's life of 3% of
the monthly annuity provided |
26 | | under Rule 1, Rule 2, Rule 3, Rule 4, or
Rule 5 contained
in |
|
| | HB3411 | - 122 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |

effective January 1, 1980 and applies to each |
3 | | annuitant whose status as
an employee terminates before or |
4 | | after that date.
|
5 | | Beginning January 1, 1990 and except as provided in |
6 | | subsections (d-1) and (d-2) , all automatic annual increases |
7 | | payable under
this Section shall be calculated as a percentage |

|
10 | | The change made in this subsection by P.A. 85-1008 is |
11 | | effective January
26, 1988, and is applicable without regard to |
12 | | whether status as an employee
terminated before that date.
|
13 | | (d-1) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article, |
14 | | for a Tier I retiree, the amount of each automatic annual |
15 | | increase in retirement annuity occurring on or after the |
16 | | effective date of this amendatory Act of the 98th General |
17 | | Assembly shall be the lesser of $750 or 3% of the total annuity
|
18 | | payable at the time of the increase, including previous |
19 | | increases granted. |
20 | | (d-2) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article, |
21 | | for a Tier I retiree, the monthly retirement annuity shall |
22 | | first be subject to annual increases on the January 1 occurring |
23 | | on or next after the attainment of age 67 or the January 1 |
24 | | occurring on or next after the fifth anniversary of the annuity |
25 | | start date, whichever occurs earlier. If on the effective date |
26 | | of this amendatory Act of the 98th General Assembly a Tier I |

| | HB3411 | - 123 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | retiree has already received an annual increase under this |
2 | | Section but does not yet meet the new eligibility requirements |
3 | | of this subsection, the annual increases already received shall |
4 | | continue in force, but no additional annual increase shall be |
5 | | granted until the Tier I retiree meets the new eligibility |
6 | | requirements. |
7 | | (d-3) Notwithstanding Section 1-103.1, subsections (d-1) |
8 | | and (d-2) apply without regard to whether or not the Tier I |
9 | | retiree is in active service under this Article on or after the |
10 | | effective date of this amendatory Act of the 98th General |
11 | | Assembly. |
12 | | (e) If, on January 1, 1987, or the date the retirement |
13 | | annuity payment
period begins, whichever is later, the sum of |
14 | | the retirement annuity
provided under Rule 1 or Rule 2 of this |
15 | | Section
and the automatic annual increases provided under the |
16 | | preceding subsection
or Section 15-136.1, amounts to less than |
17 | | the retirement
annuity which would be provided by Rule 3, the |
18 | | retirement
annuity shall be increased as of January 1, 1987, or |
19 | | the date the
retirement annuity payment period begins, |
20 | | whichever is later, to the amount
which would be provided by |
21 | | Rule 3 of this Section. Such increased
amount shall be |
22 | | considered as the retirement annuity in determining
benefits |
23 | | provided under other Sections of this Article. This paragraph
|
24 | | applies without regard to whether status as an employee |
25 | | terminated before the
effective date of this amendatory Act of |
26 | | 1987, provided that the annuitant was
employed at least |
|
| | HB3411 | - 124 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | one-half time during the period on which the final rate of
|
2 | | earnings was based.
|
3 | | (f) A participant is entitled to such additional annuity as |
4 | | may be provided
on an actuarially equivalent basis, by any |
5 | | accumulated
additional contributions to his or her credit. |
6 | | However,
the additional contributions made by the participant |
7 | | toward the automatic
increases in annuity provided under this |
8 | | Section and the contributions made under subsection (c-5) of |
9 | | Section 15-157 by this amendatory Act of the 98th General |
10 | | Assembly shall not be taken into
account in determining the |
11 | | amount of such additional annuity.
|
12 | | (g) If, (1) by law, a function of a governmental unit, as |
13 | | defined by Section
20-107 of this Code, is transferred in whole |
14 | | or in part to an employer, and (2)
a participant transfers |
15 | | employment from such governmental unit to such employer
within |
16 | | 6 months after the transfer of the function, and (3) the sum of |
17 | | (A) the
annuity payable to the participant under Rule 1, 2, or |
18 | | 3 of this Section (B)
all proportional annuities payable to the |
19 | | participant by all other retirement
systems covered by Article |
20 | | 20, and (C) the initial primary insurance amount to
which the |
21 | | participant is entitled under the Social Security Act, is less |
22 | | than
the retirement annuity which would have been payable if |
23 | | all of the
participant's pension credits validated under |
24 | | Section 20-109 had been validated
under this system, a |
25 | | supplemental annuity equal to the difference in such
amounts |
26 | | shall be payable to the participant.

retirement annuity then being paid increased $1 per |
4 | | month for
each year of creditable service. On January 1, 1982, |
5 | | an annuitant whose
retirement annuity began on or before |
6 | | January 1, 1977, shall have his or her
retirement annuity then |
7 | | being paid increased $1 per month for each year of
creditable |
8 | | service.
|
9 | | (i) On January 1, 1987, any annuitant whose retirement |
10 | | annuity began on or
before January 1, 1977, shall have the |
11 | | monthly retirement annuity increased by
an amount equal to 8¢ |
12 | | per year of creditable service times the number of years
that |
13 | | have elapsed since the annuity began.
|
14 | | (j) For participants to whom subsection (a-5) of Section |
15 | | 15-135 applies, the references to age 50, 55, and 62 in this |
16 | | Section are increased as provided in subsection (a-5) of |

24 | | payment
period, the retirement annuity shall be cancelled, and |

which he or she received. If |

entitled to receive during any month compensation in |

to retirement and his or her |

1, Rule 2, Rule |

This |
2 | | provision applies without regard to whether service was |
3 | | terminated
prior to the effective date of this amendatory Act |
4 | | of 1991.
|
5 | | (c) If an employer certifies that an annuitant has been |
6 | | reemployed
on a permanent and continuous basis or in a position
|
7 | | in which the annuitant is expected to serve for at least 9 |
8 | | months, the
annuitant shall resume his or her status as a |
9 | | participating employee
and shall be entitled to all rights |
10 | | applicable to
participating employees upon filing with the |
11 | | board an
election to forgo all annuity payments during the |
12 | | period
of reemployment. Upon subsequent retirement, the |
13 | | retirement
annuity shall consist of the annuity which was |
14 | | terminated by the reemployment,
plus the additional retirement |
15 | | annuity based upon service
granted during the period of |
16 | | reemployment, but the combined retirement
annuity shall not |
17 | | exceed the maximum
annuity applicable on the date of the last |
18 | | retirement.
|
19 | | The total service and earnings credited before and after |
20 | | the initial
date of retirement shall be considered in |
21 | | determining eligibility of the
employee or the employee's |
22 | | beneficiary to benefits under this
Article, and in calculating |
23 | | final rate of earnings.
|
24 | | In determining the death benefit
payable to a beneficiary |
25 | | of an annuitant who again becomes a participating
employee |
26 | | under this Section, accumulated normal and additional
|
|
| | HB3411 | - 128 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |

|
1 | | contributions shall be considered as the sum of the accumulated |
2 | | normal and
additional contributions at the date of initial |
3 | | retirement and the
accumulated normal and additional |
4 | | contributions credited after that date,
less the sum of the |
5 | | annuity payments received by the annuitant.
|
6 | | The survivors insurance benefits provided under Section |

be applicable to an annuitant who resumes his |
8 | | or her status as a
participating employee, unless the |
9 | | annuitant, at the time of initial
retirement, has a survivors |
10 | | insurance beneficiary who could qualify
for such benefits.
|
11 | | If the participant's employment is terminated because of |
12 | | circumstances
other than death before 9 months from the date of |
13 | | reemployment, the
provisions of this Section regarding |
14 | | resumption of status as a
participating employee shall not |
15 | | apply. The normal and survivors insurance
contributions which |
16 | | are deducted during this period shall be refunded to
the |
17 | | annuitant without interest, and subsequent benefits under this |
18 | | Article
shall be the same as those which were applicable prior |
19 | | to the date the
annuitant resumed employment.

|

15 | | to bring the total assets of the
System up to 100% of the total |
16 | | actuarial liabilities of the System by the end of
State fiscal |
17 | | year 2043. In making these determinations, the required State
|
18 | | contribution shall be calculated each year as a level |
19 | | percentage of payroll
over the years remaining to and including |
20 | | fiscal year 2043 and shall be
determined under the projected |

State is |

12 | | employer
shall pay to the Board contributions from those funds |
13 | | which are
sufficient to cover the accruing normal costs on |
14 | | behalf of the employee.
However, universities having employees |
15 | | who are compensated out of local
auxiliary funds, income funds, |
16 | | or service enterprise funds are not required
to pay such |
17 | | contributions on behalf of those employees. The local auxiliary
|
18 | | funds, income funds, and service enterprise funds of |
19 | | universities shall not be
considered trust funds for the |
20 | | purpose of this Article, but funds of alumni
associations, |
21 | | foundations, and athletic associations which are affiliated |
22 | | with
the universities included as employers under this Article |
23 | | and other employers
which do not receive State appropriations |
24 | | are considered to be trust funds for

|
|
1 | | each make
employer contributions to this System for their |
2 | | respective firefighter
employees who participate in this |
3 | | System pursuant to subsection (h) of Section
15-107. The rate |
4 | | of contributions to be made by those municipalities shall
be |
5 | | determined annually by the Board on the basis of the actuarial |
6 | | assumptions
adopted by the Board and the recommendations of the |
7 | | actuary, and shall be
expressed as a percentage of salary for |
8 | | each such employee. The Board shall
certify the rate to the |
9 | | affected municipalities as soon as may be practical.
The |
10 | | employer contributions required under this subsection shall be |
11 | | remitted by
the municipality to the System at the same time and |
12 | | in the same manner as
employee contributions.
|
13 | | (c) Through State fiscal year 1995: The total employer |
14 | | contribution shall
be apportioned among the various funds of |
15 | | the State and other employers,
whether trust, federal, or other |
16 | | funds, in accordance with actuarial procedures
approved by the |
17 | | Board. State of Illinois contributions for employers receiving
|
18 | | State appropriations for personal services shall be payable |
19 | | from appropriations
made to the employers or to the System. The |
20 | | contributions for Class I
community colleges covering earnings |
21 | | other than those paid from trust and
federal funds, shall be |
22 | | payable solely from appropriations to the Illinois
Community |
23 | | College Board or the System for employer contributions.
|
24 | | (d) Beginning in State fiscal year 1996, the required State |
25 | | contributions
to the System shall be appropriated directly to |
26 | | the System and shall be payable
through vouchers issued in |
|
| | HB3411 | - 137 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | accordance with subsection (c) of Section 15-165, except as |
2 | | provided in subsection (g).
|
3 | | (e) The State Comptroller shall draw warrants payable to |
4 | | the System upon
proper certification by the System or by the |
5 | | employer in accordance with the
appropriation laws and this |
6 | | Code.
|
7 | | (f) Normal costs under this Section means liability for
|
8 | | pensions and other benefits which accrues to the System because |
9 | | of the
credits earned for service rendered by the participants |
10 | | during the
fiscal year and expenses of administering the |
11 | | System, but shall not
include the principal of or any |
12 | | redemption premium or interest on any bonds
issued by the Board |
13 | | or any expenses incurred or deposits required in
connection |
14 | | therewith.
|
15 | | (g) If the amount of a participant's earnings for any |
16 | | academic year used to determine the final rate of earnings, |
17 | | determined on a full-time equivalent basis, exceeds the amount |
18 | | of his or her earnings with the same employer for the previous |
19 | | academic year, determined on a full-time equivalent basis, by |
20 | | more than 6%, the participant's employer shall pay to the |
21 | | System, in addition to all other payments required under this |
22 | | Section and in accordance with guidelines established by the |
23 | | System, the present value of the increase in benefits resulting |
24 | | from the portion of the increase in earnings that is in excess |
25 | | of 6%. This present value shall be computed by the System on |
26 | | the basis of the actuarial assumptions and tables used in the |
|
| | HB3411 | - 138 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | most recent actuarial valuation of the System that is available |
2 | | at the time of the computation. The System may require the |
3 | | employer to provide any pertinent information or |
4 | | documentation. |
5 | | Whenever it determines that a payment is or may be required |
6 | | under this subsection (g), the System shall calculate the |
7 | | amount of the payment and bill the employer for that amount. |
8 | | The bill shall specify the calculations used to determine the |
9 | | amount due. If the employer disputes the amount of the bill, it |
10 | | may, within 30 days after receipt of the bill, apply to the |
11 | | System in writing for a recalculation. The application must |
12 | | specify in detail the grounds of the dispute and, if the |
13 | | employer asserts that the calculation is subject to subsection |
14 | | (h) or (i) of this Section, must include an affidavit setting |
15 | | forth and attesting to all facts within the employer's |
16 | | knowledge that are pertinent to the applicability of subsection |
17 | | (h) or (i). Upon receiving a timely application for |
18 | | recalculation, the System shall review the application and, if |
19 | | appropriate, recalculate the amount due.
|
20 | | The employer contributions required under this subsection |
21 | | (g) (f) may be paid in the form of a lump sum within 90 days |
22 | | after receipt of the bill. If the employer contributions are |
23 | | not paid within 90 days after receipt of the bill, then |
24 | | interest will be charged at a rate equal to the System's annual |
25 | | actuarially assumed rate of return on investment compounded |
26 | | annually from the 91st day after receipt of the bill. Payments |
|
| | HB3411 | - 139 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | must be concluded within 3 years after the employer's receipt |
2 | | of the bill. |
3 | | (h) This subsection (h) applies only to payments made or |
4 | | salary increases given on or after June 1, 2005 but before July |
5 | | 1, 2011. The changes made by Public Act 94-1057 shall not |
6 | | require the System to refund any payments received before July |
7 | | 31, 2006 (the effective date of Public Act 94-1057). |
8 | | When assessing payment for any amount due under subsection |
9 | | (g), the System shall exclude earnings increases paid to |
10 | | participants under contracts or collective bargaining |
11 | | agreements entered into, amended, or renewed before June 1, |
12 | | 2005.
|
13 | | When assessing payment for any amount due under subsection |
14 | | (g), the System shall exclude earnings increases paid to a |
15 | | participant at a time when the participant is 10 or more years |
16 | | from retirement eligibility under Section 15-135.
|
17 | | When assessing payment for any amount due under subsection |
18 | | (g), the System shall exclude earnings increases resulting from |
19 | | overload work, including a contract for summer teaching, or |
20 | | overtime when the employer has certified to the System, and the |
21 | | System has approved the certification, that: (i) in the case of |
22 | | overloads (A) the overload work is for the sole purpose of |
23 | | academic instruction in excess of the standard number of |
24 | | instruction hours for a full-time employee occurring during the |
25 | | academic year that the overload is paid and (B) the earnings |
26 | | increases are equal to or less than the rate of pay for |
|
| | HB3411 | - 140 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | academic instruction computed using the participant's current |
2 | | salary rate and work schedule; and (ii) in the case of |
3 | | overtime, the overtime was necessary for the educational |
4 | | mission. |
5 | | When assessing payment for any amount due under subsection |
6 | | (g), the System shall exclude any earnings increase resulting |
7 | | from (i) a promotion for which the employee moves from one |
8 | | classification to a higher classification under the State |
9 | | Universities Civil Service System, (ii) a promotion in academic |
10 | | rank for a tenured or tenure-track faculty position, or (iii) a |
11 | | promotion that the Illinois Community College Board has |
12 | | recommended in accordance with subsection (k) of this Section. |
13 | | These earnings increases shall be excluded only if the |
14 | | promotion is to a position that has existed and been filled by |
15 | | a member for no less than one complete academic year and the |
16 | | earnings increase as a result of the promotion is an increase |
17 | | that results in an amount no greater than the average salary |
18 | | paid for other similar positions. |
19 | | (i) When assessing payment for any amount due under |
20 | | subsection (g), the System shall exclude any salary increase |
21 | | described in subsection (h) of this Section given on or after |
22 | | July 1, 2011 but before July 1, 2014 under a contract or |
23 | | collective bargaining agreement entered into, amended, or |
24 | | renewed on or after June 1, 2005 but before July 1, 2011. |
25 | | Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, any |
26 | | payments made or salary increases given after June 30, 2014 |
|
| | HB3411 | - 141 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | shall be used in assessing payment for any amount due under |
2 | | subsection (g) of this Section.
|
3 | | (j) The System shall prepare a report and file copies of |
4 | | the report with the Governor and the General Assembly by |
5 | | January 1, 2007 that contains all of the following information: |
6 | | (1) The number of recalculations required by the |
7 | | changes made to this Section by Public Act 94-1057 for each |
8 | | employer. |
9 | | (2) The dollar amount by which each employer's |
10 | | contribution to the System was changed due to |
11 | | recalculations required by Public Act 94-1057. |
12 | | (3) The total amount the System received from each |
13 | | employer as a result of the changes made to this Section by |
14 | | Public Act 94-4. |
15 | | (4) The increase in the required State contribution |
16 | | resulting from the changes made to this Section by Public |
17 | | Act 94-1057. |
18 | | (k) The Illinois Community College Board shall adopt rules |
19 | | for recommending lists of promotional positions submitted to |
20 | | the Board by community colleges and for reviewing the |
21 | | promotional lists on an annual basis. When recommending |
22 | | promotional lists, the Board shall consider the similarity of |
23 | | the positions submitted to those positions recognized for State |
24 | | universities by the State Universities Civil Service System. |
25 | | The Illinois Community College Board shall file a copy of its |
26 | | findings with the System. The System shall consider the |
|
| | HB3411 | - 142 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | findings of the Illinois Community College Board when making |
2 | | determinations under this Section. The System shall not exclude |
3 | | any earnings increases resulting from a promotion when the |
4 | | promotion was not submitted by a community college. Nothing in |
5 | | this subsection (k) shall require any community college to |
6 | | submit any information to the Community College Board.
|
7 | | (l) For purposes of determining the required State |
8 | | contribution to the System, the value of the System's assets |
9 | | shall be equal to the actuarial value of the System's assets, |
10 | | which shall be calculated as follows: |
11 | | As of June 30, 2008, the actuarial value of the System's |
12 | | assets shall be equal to the market value of the assets as of |
13 | | that date. In determining the actuarial value of the System's |
14 | | assets for fiscal years after June 30, 2008, any actuarial |
15 | | gains or losses from investment return incurred in a fiscal |
16 | | year shall be recognized in equal annual amounts over the |
17 | | 5-year period following that fiscal year. |
18 | | (m) For purposes of determining the required State |
19 | | contribution to the system for a particular year, the actuarial |
20 | | value of assets shall be assumed to earn a rate of return equal |
21 | | to the system's actuarially assumed rate of return. |

2 | | other than the State. Any employer, other than the State, that |
3 | | fails to transmit to the System contributions required of
it |
4 | | under this Article or contributions required of employees, for |
5 | | more
than 90 days after such contributions are due, is subject |
6 | | to the following:
after giving notice to the employer, the |
7 | | System may certify
to the State Comptroller or the Illinois |
8 | | Community College Board, whichever is applicable, the
amounts |
9 | | of such delinquent payments and the State Comptroller or the |
10 | | Illinois Community College Board, whichever is applicable, |
11 | | shall deduct the amounts so certified
or any part thereof from |
12 | | any State funds to be remitted
to the employer and shall
pay |
13 | | the amount so deducted to the System. If State funds from which
|
14 | | such deductions may be made are not available, the System may |
15 | | proceed
against the employer to recover the
amounts of such |
16 | | delinquent payments in the appropriate circuit court. |
17 | | The System may provide for an
audit of the records of an |
18 | | employer, other than the State, as
may be required to establish |
19 | | the amounts of required contributions.
The employer shall make |
20 | | its records
available to the System for the purpose of such |
21 | | audit. The cost of such
audit shall be added to the amount of |
22 | | the delinquent payments and may
be recovered by the System from |
23 | | the employer at the same time and in the same manner as the |
24 | | delinquent payments
are recovered.

granted under this system and (3) all expenses |
4 | | in connection with the
administration and operation thereof are |
5 | | obligations of the State of
Illinois to the extent specified in |

employee normal, additional and |
7 | | survivors insurance contributions
credited to the accounts of |
8 | | active and inactive participants
shall not be used to pay the |
9 | | State's share of the obligations.
|
10 | | (b) Beginning July 1, 2013, the State shall be |
11 | | contractually obligated to contribute to the System under |
12 | | Section 15-155 in each State fiscal year an amount not less |
13 | | than the sum of (i) the State's normal cost for that year and
|
14 | | (ii) the portion of the unfunded accrued liability assigned to |
15 | | that year by law in accordance with a schedule that distributes |
16 | | payments equitably over a reasonable period of time and in |
17 | | accordance with accepted actuarial practices. The obligations |
18 | | created under this subsection (b) are contractual obligations |
19 | | protected and enforceable under Article I, Section 16 and |
20 | | Article XIII, Section 5 of the Illinois Constitution. |
21 | | Notwithstanding any other provision of law, if the State |
22 | | fails to pay in a State fiscal year the amount guaranteed under |
23 | | this subsection, the System may bring a mandamus action in the |
24 | | Circuit Court of Sangamon or Champaign County to compel the |
25 | | State to make that payment, irrespective of other remedies that
|
26 | | may be available to the System. In ordering the State to make |
|
| | HB3411 | - 145 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | the required payment, the court may order a reasonable payment |

3 | | without significantly imperiling the public health, safety, or |
4 | | welfare. |
5 | | Any payments required to be made by the State pursuant to |
6 | | this subsection (b)
are expressly subordinated to the payment |

bonded |
8 | | debt obligation of the State or any other State-created entity, |
9 | | either currently outstanding or to
be issued, for which the |
10 | | source of repayment or security thereon is derived directly or |
11 | | indirectly from
tax revenues collected by the State or any |
12 | | other State-created entity. Payments on such bonded
|
13 | | obligations include any statutory fund transfers or other |
14 | | prefunding mechanisms or formulas set forth,
now or hereafter, |
15 | | in State law or bond indentures, into debt service funds or |

22 | | (a) Each participating employee
shall make contributions |
23 | | towards the retirement
benefits payable under the retirement |
24 | | program applicable to the
employee from each payment
of |
25 | | earnings applicable to employment under this system on and |

September 1, 1955 to August 31, |
4 | | 1969, 6%; from September 1, 1969, 6 1/2%.
These contributions |
5 | | are to be considered as normal contributions for purposes
of |
6 | | this Article.
|
7 | | Each participant who is a police officer or firefighter |
8 | | shall make normal
contributions of 8% of each payment of |
9 | | earnings applicable to employment as a
police officer or |
10 | | firefighter under this system on or after September 1, 1981,
|
11 | | unless he or she files with the board within 60 days after the |
12 | | effective date
of this amendatory Act of 1991 or 60 days after |
13 | | the board receives notice that
he or she is employed as a |
14 | | police officer or firefighter, whichever is later,
a written |
15 | | notice waiving the retirement formula provided by Rule 4 of |
16 | | Section
15-136. This waiver shall be irrevocable. If a |

conditions set forth in Section |
18 | | 15-132.1 prior to the effective date of this
amendatory Act of |
19 | | 1991 but failed to make the additional normal contributions
|
20 | | required by this paragraph, he or she may elect to pay the |

5 | | employee shall make
additional contributions of 1/2 of 1% of |
6 | | earnings to finance a portion
of the cost of the annual |
7 | | increases in retirement annuity provided under
Section 15-136, |
8 | | except that with respect to participants in the
self-managed |
9 | | plan this additional contribution shall be used to finance the
|
10 | | benefits obtained under that retirement program.

12 | | and (b) of this
Section, each participating employee shall make |
13 | | contributions of 1% of earnings
applicable under this system on |
14 | | and after August 1, 1959. The contributions
made under this |
15 | | subsection (c) shall be considered as survivor's insurance
|
16 | | contributions for purposes of this Article if the employee is |
17 | | covered under
the traditional benefit package, and such |
18 | | contributions shall be considered
as additional contributions |
19 | | for purposes of this Article if the employee is
participating |
20 | | in the self-managed plan or has elected to participate in the
|
21 | | portable benefit package and has completed the applicable |
22 | | one-year waiting
period. Contributions in excess of $80 during |
23 | | any fiscal year beginning before
August 31, 1969 and in excess |
24 | | of $120 during any fiscal year thereafter until
September 1, |

14 | | such conditions
and limitations as may be specified in its |
15 | | rules, a participant may make
other additional contributions of |

19 | | normal
contributions, the numerator of which is equal to the |
20 | | number of years of
service in excess of that which is required |
21 | | to qualify for the maximum
retirement annuity, and the |
22 | | denominator of which is equal to the total
service of the |

which continuance of such |
5 | | contributions would otherwise cause his or her
retirement |
6 | | annuity to exceed the maximum retirement annuity as specified |

2 | | managed by the System, which shall design a target-date or |
3 | | life-cycle investment allocation mechanism for this plan. This |
4 | | mechanism shall invest all assets in participants' defined |
5 | | contribution accounts in vehicles already in use by the |
6 | | System's defined-benefit Fund, but the specific allocation |
7 | | will vary with the participant's age, with more aggressive |
8 | | investments for younger participants and more conservative |
9 | | investments for older participants. |
10 | | The balance in a participant's defined-contribution |
11 | | account shall be a function exclusively of employee |
12 | | contributions as described in subsection (g), employer |
13 | | contributions as described in subsection (h), and actual |
14 | | investment returns net of fees and administrative costs as |
15 | | certified by the System. |
16 | | Subsequent to retirement, a participant may access the |
17 | | assets in his or her defined-contribution account by taking |
18 | | lump-sum disbursements, rolling over the balance into another |
19 | | qualified plan, or purchasing an annuity or other insurance |
20 | | product to the extent allowable under federal law. Under no |
21 | | circumstances shall the State or employer be exposed to any |
22 | | investment or actuarial risk in the determination of benefit |
23 | | levels. |
24 | | The defined-contribution component of the Tier 3 |
25 | | retirement plan does not include any of the following with |

17 | | participate in the Tier 3 retirement plan in lieu of |
18 | | participation in the traditional benefit package or the |

3 | | into the Tier 3 retirement plan. An employee so electing will |
4 | | be credited with employee contributions and employer normal |
5 | | cost contributions plus interest at the actual rate of return. |
6 | | The System shall calculate the total cost of transferring an |
7 | | equal amount of service credit into the Tier 3 defined benefit |
8 | | plan and use the credited contributions to cover the cost of |
9 | | the transfer. Any unused contributions shall be deposited into |
10 | | the employee's defined contribution account. |
11 | | (d) Retirement annuity. |

21 | | credit, and has terminated employment under this Article. |
22 | | (2) The retirement annuity shall be 1.1% of the final |
23 | | rate of earnings for each year of creditable service. If |
24 | | the participant has not attained age 67 at the time of |
25 | | retirement, the retirement annuity shall be reduced by |
26 | | one-half of 1% for each full month by which the age at |

13 | | unadjusted percentage increase in the Consumer Price |
14 | | Index-U for the 12 months ending with the preceding |
15 | | September, whichever is less. If that annual unadjusted |
16 | | percentage change is zero or there is a decrease, then the |

|
|
1 | | The initial survivor's annuity of an eligible survivor |
2 | | of a participant in the Tier 3 retirement plan who was not |

12 | | percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index-U for the |
13 | | 12 months ending with the preceding September, whichever is |
14 | | less. If that annual unadjusted percentage change is zero |
15 | | or there is a decrease, then the annuity shall not be |
16 | | increased. |

|
|

9 | | participant whose disability benefit under this subsection |
10 | | is discontinued by the operation of clause (6) of Section |
11 | | 15-152 and who is not a participant in the self-managed |
12 | | plan. |
13 | | (7) The disability benefit provided under this Section |
14 | | shall be increased on each January 1 occurring on or after |
15 | | the first anniversary
of the commencement of that benefit. |
16 | | Each annual increase shall be a percentage of the |
17 | | disability benefit then payable, including any previous |
18 | | increases, equal to 3% or one-half of the annual unadjusted |
19 | | percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index-U for the |
20 | | 12 months ending with the preceding September, whichever is |
21 | | less. If that annual unadjusted percentage change is zero |
22 | | or there is a decrease, then the disability benefit shall |
23 | | not be increased. |
24 | | An amount of employer contributions shall be used for the |
25 | | purpose of providing the disability
benefit under this |
26 | | subsection to the participant. Prior to the beginning of each |
|
| | HB3411 | - 157 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | plan
year under the Tier 3 retirement plan, the Board of |
2 | | Trustees shall determine, as a
percentage of earnings, the |
3 | | amount of employer contributions to be allocated
during that |
4 | | plan year for providing a disability benefit for employees in |
5 | | the
Tier 3 retirement plan. |
6 | | (g) Employee contributions. In lieu of the employee |
7 | | contributions required under Section 15-157, each employee who |
8 | | is a participant in the Tier 3 retirement plan shall contribute |
9 | | to the System an amount equal to 4% of each payment of earnings |
10 | | to fund the defined-benefit component of the Tier 3 retirement |
11 | | plan and an amount equal to 5% of each payment of earnings to |
12 | | fund the defined-contribution component of the Tier 3 |
13 | | retirement plan. These contributions shall be deducted from the |
14 | | employee's earnings and may be picked up by the employer for |
15 | | federal tax purposes under Section 15-157.1. These |
16 | | contributions are a condition of employment. |
17 | | A Tier 3 employee may make additional contributions to the |
18 | | defined-contribution component of the Tier 3 retirement plan in |
19 | | accordance with the procedures prescribed by the System, to the |
20 | | extent permitted under the rules of the plan. |
21 | | (h) Actual employer contributions. |
22 | | (1) To fund the Tier 3 retirement plan, the actual |
23 | | employer of an employee who participates in the Tier 3 |
24 | | retirement plan shall annually contribute to the System an |
25 | | amount determined by the System equal to the sum of: (i) |
26 | | the annual employer's normal cost of the defined-benefit |
|
| | HB3411 | - 158 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | component of the Tier 3 retirement plan for employees of |
2 | | that employer, (ii) any unfunded accrued liability arising |
3 | | from the Tier 3 retirement plan assigned to the employer |
4 | | that year in accordance with subsection (h-5), and (iii) |
5 | | any optional matching contribution to be made for that year |
6 | | to the defined-contribution accounts of the local |
7 | | employers' employees by the local employer pursuant to a |
8 | | collective bargaining agreement or other employment |
9 | | contract, provided that the optional matching contribution |
10 | | shall not be less than 3% or greater than 10% of the |
11 | | applicable employee salary. |
12 | | (2) Each year, the retirement system shall obtain an |
13 | | actuarial estimate of the annual normal cost of the |
14 | | defined-benefit component of the Tier 3 retirement plan. |
15 | | (3) The contributions required under this subsection |
16 | | (h) are in addition to the contributions required under |
17 | | Section 15-155 and any other contributions required under |
18 | | this Article. |
19 | | (4) In no event shall a participant have an option of |
20 | | receiving any portion of the local employer contributions |
21 | | to the defined-benefit plan in cash. |
22 | | (h-5) For use in determining the employer's contribution |
23 | | for unfunded accrued liability under item (ii) of paragraph (1) |
24 | | of subsection (h), the System shall maintain a separate account |
25 | | for each employer. The separate account shall be maintained in |
26 | | such form and detail as the System determines to be |
|
| | HB3411 | - 159 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | appropriate. The separate account shall reflect the following |
2 | | items to the extent that they are attributable to that employer |
3 | | and arise on or after the effective date of this amendatory Act |
4 | | of the 98th General Assembly: employer contributions, employee |
5 | | contributions, investment returns, payments of benefits, and |
6 | | that employer's proportionate share of the System's |
7 | | administrative expenses. |
8 | | In the event that the Board determines that there is a |
9 | | deficiency or surplus in the account of an employer, the Board |
10 | | shall determine the employer's contribution rate as required by |
11 | | item (ii) of paragraph (1) of subsection (h) so as to address |
12 | | that deficiency or surplus over a reasonable period of time as |
13 | | determined by the Board, which shall be no more than 10 years. |
14 | | (i) Refunds. Refunds of employee contributions to the |
15 | | defined-benefit component of the Tier 3 retirement plan and |
16 | | vested employer contributions to the defined-benefit component |
17 | | of the Tier 3 retirement plan shall be calculated in accordance |
18 | | with Section 15-154.

12 | | recertify
to the Governor the amount of the required State
|
13 | | contribution to the System for State fiscal year 2006, taking |
14 | | into account the changes in required State contributions made |

|
16 | | On or before April 1, 2011, the Board shall recalculate and |
17 | | recertify to the Governor the amount of the required State |
18 | | contribution to the System for State fiscal year 2011, applying |

20 | | and liabilities as of June 30, 2009 as though Public Act 96-889 |
21 | | was approved on that date. |
22 | | (a-5) On or before November 1 of each year, beginning |
23 | | November 1, 2012, the Board shall submit to the State Actuary, |
24 | | the Governor, and the General Assembly a proposed certification |
25 | | of the amount of the required State contribution to the System |
26 | | for the next fiscal year, along with all of the actuarial |
|
| | HB3411 | - 161 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | assumptions, calculations, and data upon which that proposed |
2 | | certification is based. On or before January 1 of each year, |
3 | | beginning January 1, 2013, the State Actuary shall issue a |
4 | | preliminary report concerning the proposed certification and |
5 | | identifying, if necessary, recommended changes in actuarial |

11 | | for the next fiscal year. The certification shall include a |

20 | | following the State Actuary's recommended changes on the |
21 | | required State contribution. |
22 | | (b) The Board shall certify to the State Comptroller or |
23 | | employer, as the
case may be, from time to time, by its |
24 | | president and secretary, with its seal
attached, the amounts |
25 | | payable to the System from the various funds.
|
26 | | (c) Beginning in State fiscal year 1996, on or as soon as |

|
|
1 | | possible after the
15th day of each month the Board shall |
2 | | submit vouchers for payment of State
contributions to the |
3 | | System, in a total monthly amount of one-twelfth of the
|

From the effective date of this amendatory Act
of the 93rd |
6 | | General Assembly through June 30, 2004, the Board shall not
|
7 | | submit vouchers for the remainder of fiscal year 2004 in excess |
8 | | of the

9 | | determined
under this Section after taking into consideration |
10 | | the transfer to the
System under subsection (b) of Section |
11 | | 6z-61 of the State Finance Act.
These
vouchers shall be paid by |
12 | | the State Comptroller and Treasurer by warrants drawn
on the |
13 | | funds appropriated to the System for that fiscal year.
|
14 | | If in any month the amount remaining unexpended from all |
15 | | other
appropriations to the System for the applicable fiscal |
16 | | year (including the
appropriations to the System under Section |
17 | | 8.12 of the State Finance Act and
Section 1 of the State |
18 | | Pension Funds Continuing Appropriation Act) is less than
the |
19 | | amount lawfully vouchered under this Section, the difference |
20 | | shall be paid
from the General Revenue Fund under the |
21 | | continuing appropriation authority
provided in Section 1.1 of |
22 | | the State Pension Funds Continuing Appropriation
Act.
|
23 | | (d) So long as the payments received are the full amount |

self-managed plan established |
|
| | HB3411 | - 163 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|

applied second toward |
2 | | the employer's portion of the normal costs of the System,
as |
3 | | defined in subsection (f) of Section 15-155. The balance shall |
4 | | be applied
toward the unfunded actuarial liabilities of the |
5 | | System.
|
6 | | (e) In the event that the System does not receive, as a |
7 | | result of
legislative enactment or otherwise, payments |
8 | | sufficient to
fully fund the employer contribution to the |
9 | | self-managed plan
established under Section 15-158.2 and to |
10 | | fully fund that portion of the
employer's portion of the normal |
11 | | costs of the System, as calculated in
accordance with Section |
12 | | 15-155(a-1), then any payments received shall be
applied |
13 | | proportionately to the optional retirement program established |

15 | | normal costs of the
System, as calculated in accordance with |

|
20 | | Sec. 15-198. Application and expiration of new benefit |
21 | | increases. |
22 | | (a) As used in this Section, "new benefit increase" means |
23 | | an increase in the amount of any benefit provided under this |
24 | | Article, or an expansion of the conditions of eligibility for |
25 | | any benefit under this Article or Article 1 , that results from |
|
| | HB3411 | - 164 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | an amendment to this Code that takes effect after the effective |
2 | | date of this amendatory Act of the 94th General Assembly. "New |
3 | | benefit increase", however, does not include any benefit |
4 | | increase resulting from the changes made to this Article or |
5 | | Article 1 by this amendatory Act of the 98th General Assembly. |
6 | | (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Code or any |
7 | | subsequent amendment to this Code, every new benefit increase |
8 | | is subject to this Section and shall be deemed to be granted |
9 | | only in conformance with and contingent upon compliance with |
10 | | the provisions of this Section.
|
11 | | (c) The Public Act enacting a new benefit increase must |
12 | | identify and provide for payment to the System of additional |
13 | | funding at least sufficient to fund the resulting annual |
14 | | increase in cost to the System as it accrues. |
15 | | Every new benefit increase is contingent upon the General |
16 | | Assembly providing the additional funding required under this |
17 | | subsection. The Commission on Government Forecasting and |
18 | | Accountability shall analyze whether adequate additional |
19 | | funding has been provided for the new benefit increase and |
20 | | shall report its analysis to the Public Pension Division of the |
21 | | Department of Financial and Professional Regulation. A new |
22 | | benefit increase created by a Public Act that does not include |

1, 1972, whichever is later, until |
21 | | January 1, 1978, plus

23 | | the number
of years elapsed from the date of retirement or |

1978, whichever is later, until the effective |
25 | | date of the initial
increase.

|

be payable on each January 1 thereafter during |

determined as a percentage of |

23 | | Sec. 16-152.8. Tier 3 retirement plan. |
24 | | (a) Contents of Tier 3 retirement plan.
The Tier 3 |
25 | | retirement plan consists of a defined-benefit component and a |
|
| | HB3411 | - 182 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | defined-contribution component; both components apply to all |
2 | | participants in the Tier 3 retirement plan. The plan also |
3 | | includes provisions relating to contributions and refunds. |
4 | | The defined-benefit component includes a retirement |
5 | | annuity as provided under this Section, a surviving spouse |
6 | | annuity as provided under this Section, and a disability |
7 | | benefit as
provided in this Section. |
8 | | The defined-contribution component shall be a defined |
9 | | contribution plan that shall be established by the System. Each |
10 | | participant shall have an individual account whose assets are |
11 | | managed by the System, which shall design a target-date or |
12 | | life-cycle investment allocation mechanism for this plan. This |
13 | | mechanism shall invest all assets in participants' defined |
14 | | contribution accounts in vehicles already in use by the |
15 | | System's defined-benefit Fund, but the specific allocation |
16 | | will vary with the participant's age, with more aggressive |
17 | | investments for younger participants and more conservative |
18 | | investments for older participants. |
19 | | The balance in a participant's defined-contribution |
20 | | account shall be a function exclusively of employee |
21 | | contributions as described in subsection (g), employer |
22 | | contributions as described in subsection (h), and actual |
23 | | investment returns net of fees and administrative costs as |
24 | | certified by the System. |
25 | | Subsequent to retirement, a participant may access the |
26 | | assets in his or her defined-contribution account by taking |
|
| | HB3411 | - 183 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | lump-sum disbursements, rolling over the balance into another |
2 | | qualified plan, or purchasing an annuity or other insurance |
3 | | product to the extent allowable under federal law. Under no |
4 | | circumstances shall the State or employer be exposed to any |
5 | | investment or actuarial risk in the determination of benefit |
6 | | levels. |
7 | | The defined-contribution component of the Tier 3 |
8 | | retirement plan does not include any of the following with |
9 | | respect to service performed while participating in the Tier 3 |
10 | | retirement plan: retirement annuities, reversionary annuities, |
11 | | death benefits, survivors' benefits, or disability benefits
|
12 | | payable directly from the System as provided in Sections 16-132 |
13 | | through 16-149.6 (except Section 16-149.2) or Section 1-160; or |
14 | | refunds determined under Section 16-151. |
15 | | Participation in the Tier 3 retirement plan under this |
16 | | Section constitutes
membership in the Teachers' Retirement |
17 | | System of the State of Illinois. Participants in the Tier 3 |
18 | | retirement plan remain subject to the provisions of this |
19 | | Article that apply to participants generally and that do not |
20 | | depend upon the benefit package or plan. A participant in the |
21 | | Tier 3 retirement plan is entitled to the applicable benefits |
22 | | of
Article 20 of this Code. |
23 | | The Tier 3 retirement plan is subject to the provisions of |
24 | | Article 1 of this Code that apply to retirement systems |
25 | | generally and must be qualified under the Internal Revenue Code |
26 | | of 1986. |

|
|
1 | | (b) Definitions. As used in this Section: |
2 | | "Consumer Price Index-U" means
the Consumer Price Index |
3 | | published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the United |
4 | | States
Department of Labor that measures the average change in |
5 | | prices of goods and
services purchased by all urban consumers, |
6 | | United States city average, all
items, 1982-84 = 100. |
7 | | "Final average salary" means: |
8 | | (1) for a teacher who is paid on an hourly basis or who |
9 | | receives an annual salary in installments during 12 months |
10 | | of each school year, the average annual salary obtained by |
11 | | dividing by 8 the total salary of the teacher during the 96 |
12 | | consecutive months in which the total salary was the |
13 | | highest within the last 120 months prior to termination; |
14 | | (2) for any other teacher, the average annual salary |
15 | | during the 8 consecutive school years within the 10 years |
16 | | prior to termination in which the teacher's salary was the |
17 | | highest; and |
18 | | (3) for a teacher with less than 96 consecutive months |
19 | | or 8 consecutive school years of service, whichever is |
20 | | necessary, the average salary during his or her entire |
21 | | period of service. |
22 | | (c) Participation. A teacher who first becomes a member of |
23 | | the System on or after January 1, 2014 shall, with respect to |
24 | | service under this Article, participate in the Tier 3 |
25 | | retirement plan only and not, except as specified in this |
26 | | Section, any other benefit package provided under this Article |
|
| | HB3411 | - 185 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | or Section 1-160. |
2 | | A teacher who first became a member of this System on or |
3 | | after January 1, 2011 and before January 1, 2014 may choose to |
4 | | transfer his or her pension credits into the Tier 3 retirement |
5 | | plan by making, on or before June 1, 2014, an irrevocable |
6 | | election to transfer his or her pension credits into the Tier 3 |
7 | | retirement plan. A teacher so electing will be credited with |
8 | | employee contributions and employer normal cost contributions |
9 | | plus interest at the actual rate of return. The System shall |
10 | | calculate the total cost of transferring an equal amount of |
11 | | service credit into the Tier 3 defined benefit plan and use the |
12 | | credited contributions to cover the cost of the transfer. Any |
13 | | unused contributions shall be deposited into the member's |
14 | | defined contribution account. |
15 | | (d) Retirement annuity. |
16 | | (1) A participant in the Tier 3 retirement plan is |
17 | | entitled to a retirement annuity under this Section upon |
18 | | written application if he or she has attained age 67, has |
19 | | at least 5 years of service credit, and has terminated |
20 | | employment under this Article. |
21 | | A participant in the Tier 3 retirement plan is entitled |
22 | | to a reduced retirement annuity upon written application if |
23 | | he or she has attained age 62 but is below age 67 at the |
24 | | time of retirement, has at least 10 years of service |
25 | | credit, and has terminated employment under this Article. |
26 | | (2) The retirement annuity shall be 1.1% of the final |
|
| | HB3411 | - 186 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | average salary for each year of creditable service. If the |
2 | | participant has not attained age 67 at the time of |
3 | | retirement, the retirement annuity shall be reduced by |
4 | | one-half of 1% for each full month by which the age at |
5 | | retirement is less than age 67. |
6 | | (3) An eligible person may elect to have his or her |
7 | | retirement annuity under this Section determined in |
8 | | accordance with Article 20 of this Code. |
9 | | (4) A retirement annuity under this Section shall be |
10 | | subject to annual increases on each January 1 occurring on |
11 | | or after the attainment of age 67 or the first anniversary |
12 | | of the annuity start date, whichever is later. Each annual |
13 | | increase shall be a percentage of the originally granted |
14 | | retirement annuity equal to 3% or one-half of the annual |
15 | | unadjusted percentage increase in the Consumer Price |
16 | | Index-U for the 12 months ending with the preceding |
17 | | September, whichever is less. If that annual unadjusted |
18 | | percentage change is zero or there is a decrease, then the |
19 | | annuity shall not be increased. |
20 | | (e) Survivor's annuity. |
21 | | (1) Eligibility for and the duration of a survivor's |
22 | | annuity under this Section shall be determined in the same |
23 | | manner as eligibility for survivors' benefits under this |
24 | | Article. |
25 | | (2) The initial survivor's annuity of an eligible |
26 | | survivor of a retired participant in the Tier 3 retirement |
|
| | HB3411 | - 187 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | plan shall be in the amount of 66 2/3% of the retired |
2 | | participant's retirement annuity at the date of death. |
3 | | The initial survivor's annuity of an eligible survivor |
4 | | of a participant in the Tier 3 retirement plan who was not |
5 | | retired shall be 66 2/3% of the retirement annuity that |
6 | | would have been payable under this Section if the deceased |
7 | | participant had retired on the date of death, disregarding |
8 | | the minimum age required for retirement. |
9 | | (3) A survivor's annuity shall be increased on each |
10 | | January 1 occurring on or after the first anniversary
of |
11 | | the commencement of the annuity. Each annual increase shall |
12 | | be a percentage of the originally granted survivor's |
13 | | annuity equal to 3% or one-half of the annual unadjusted |
14 | | percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index-U for the |
15 | | 12 months ending with the preceding September, whichever is |
16 | | less. If that annual unadjusted percentage change is zero |
17 | | or there is a decrease, then the annuity shall not be |
18 | | increased. |
19 | | (f) Disability benefit. |
20 | | (1) A participant in the Tier 3 retirement plan is |
21 | | eligible for the disability benefit provided under this |
22 | | subsection subject to the conditions of eligibility |
23 | | specified in Section 16-149. |
24 | | (2) The disability benefit provided under this |
25 | | subsection shall begin to accrue as specified in Section |

5 | | subsection shall be an amount determined as specified in |
6 | | Section 16-149. |
7 | | (5) The provisions of Section 16-149.2 apply to any |
8 | | participant whose disability benefit under this subsection |
9 | | is discontinued by the operation of Section 16-149 and who |
10 | | is not a participant in the self-managed plan. |
11 | | (6) The disability benefit provided under this Section |
12 | | shall be increased on each January 1 occurring on or after |
13 | | the first anniversary
of the commencement of that benefit. |
14 | | Each annual increase shall be a percentage of the |
15 | | disability benefit then payable, including any previous |
16 | | increases, equal to 3% or one-half of the annual unadjusted |
17 | | percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index-U for the |
18 | | 12 months ending with the preceding September, whichever is |
19 | | less. If that annual unadjusted percentage change is zero |
20 | | or there is a decrease, then the disability benefit shall |
21 | | not be increased. |
22 | | An amount of employer contributions shall be used for the |
23 | | purpose of providing the disability
benefit under this |
24 | | subsection to the participant. Prior to the beginning of each |
25 | | plan
year under the Tier 3 retirement plan, the Board of |
26 | | Trustees shall determine, as a
percentage of salary, the amount |
|
| | HB3411 | - 189 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | of employer contributions to be allocated
during that plan year |
2 | | for providing a disability benefit for teachers in the
Tier 3 |
3 | | retirement plan. |
4 | | (g) Teacher contributions. In lieu of the member |
5 | | contributions required under Section 16-152, each teacher who |
6 | | is a participant in the Tier 3 retirement plan shall contribute |
7 | | to the System an amount equal to 4% of each payment of salary |
8 | | to fund the defined-benefit component of the Tier 3 retirement |
9 | | plan and an amount equal to 5% of each payment of salary to |
10 | | fund the defined-contribution component of the Tier 3 |
11 | | retirement plan. These contributions shall be deducted from the |
12 | | teacher's salary and may be picked up by the employer for |
13 | | federal tax purposes under Section 16-152.1. These |
14 | | contributions are a condition of employment. |
15 | | A Tier 3 employee may make additional contributions to the |
16 | | defined-contribution component of the Tier 3 retirement plan in |
17 | | accordance with the procedures prescribed by the System, to the |
18 | | extent permitted under the rules of the plan. |
19 | | (h) Actual employer contributions. |
20 | | (1) To fund the Tier 3 retirement plan, the actual |
21 | | employer of a teacher who participates in the Tier 3 |
22 | | retirement plan shall annually contribute to the System an |
23 | | amount determined by the System equal to the sum of: (i) |
24 | | the annual employer's normal cost of the defined-benefit |
25 | | component of the Tier 3 retirement plan for teachers of |
26 | | that employer, (ii) any unfunded accrued liability arising |
|
| | HB3411 | - 190 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | from the Tier 3 retirement plan assigned to the employer |
2 | | that year in accordance with subsection (h-5), and (iii) |
3 | | any optional matching contribution to be made for that year |
4 | | to the defined-contribution accounts of the local |
5 | | employers' teachers by the local employer pursuant to a |
6 | | collective bargaining agreement or other employment |
7 | | contract, provided that the optional matching contribution |
8 | | shall not be less than 3% or greater than 10% of the |
9 | | applicable teacher salary. |
10 | | (2) Each year, the retirement system shall obtain an |
11 | | actuarial estimate of the annual normal cost of the |
12 | | defined-benefit component of the Tier 3 retirement plan. |
13 | | (3) The contributions required under this subsection |
14 | | (h) are in addition to the contributions required under |
15 | | Section 16-158 and any other contributions required under |
16 | | this Article. |
17 | | (4) In no event shall a participant have an option of |
18 | | receiving any portion of the local employer contributions |
19 | | to the defined-benefit plan in cash. |
20 | | (h-5) For use in determining the employer's contribution |
21 | | for unfunded accrued liability under item (ii) of paragraph (1) |
22 | | of subsection (h), the System shall maintain a separate account |
23 | | for each employer. The separate account shall be maintained in |
24 | | such form and detail as the System determines to be |
25 | | appropriate. The separate account shall reflect the following |
26 | | items to the extent that they are attributable to that employer |
|
| | HB3411 | - 191 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | and arise on or after the effective date of this amendatory Act |
2 | | of the 98th General Assembly: employer contributions, employee |
3 | | contributions, investment returns, payments of benefits, and |
4 | | that employer's proportionate share of the System's |
5 | | administrative expenses. |
6 | | In the event that the Board determines that there is a |
7 | | deficiency or surplus in the account of an employer, the Board |
8 | | shall determine the employer's contribution rate as required by |
9 | | item (ii) of paragraph (1) of subsection (h) so as to address |
10 | | that deficiency or surplus over a reasonable period of time as |
11 | | determined by the Board, which shall be no more than 10 years. |
12 | | (i) Refunds. Refunds of teacher contributions to the |
13 | | defined-benefit component of the Tier 3 retirement plan and |
14 | | vested employer contributions to the defined-benefit component |
15 | | of the Tier 3 retirement plan shall be calculated in accordance |
16 | | with Section 16-138.

2 | | contribution to the System for State fiscal year 2011, applying |
3 | | the changes made by Public Act 96-889 to the System's assets |
4 | | and liabilities as of June 30, 2009 as though Public Act 96-889 |
5 | | was approved on that date. |
6 | | (a-5) On or before November 1 of each year, beginning |
7 | | November 1, 2012, the Board shall submit to the State Actuary, |
8 | | the Governor, and the General Assembly a proposed certification |
9 | | of the amount of the required State contribution to the System |
10 | | for the next fiscal year, along with all of the actuarial |
11 | | assumptions, calculations, and data upon which that proposed |
12 | | certification is based. On or before January 1 of each year, |
13 | | beginning January 1, 2013, the State Actuary shall issue a |
14 | | preliminary report concerning the proposed certification and |
15 | | identifying, if necessary, recommended changes in actuarial |
16 | | assumptions that the Board must consider before finalizing its |
17 | | certification of the required State contributions. |
18 | | On or before January 15, 2013 and each January 15 |
19 | | thereafter, the Board shall certify to the Governor and the |
20 | | General Assembly the amount of the required State contribution |
21 | | for the next fiscal year. The certification shall include a |
22 | | copy of the actuarial
recommendations upon which it is based |
23 | | and shall specifically identify the System's projected State |
24 | | normal cost for that fiscal year. The Board's certification |
25 | | must note any deviations from the State Actuary's recommended |
26 | | changes, the reason or reasons for not following the State |
|
| | HB3411 | - 194 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | Actuary's recommended changes, and the fiscal impact of not |
2 | | following the State Actuary's recommended changes on the |
3 | | required State contribution. |
4 | | (b) Through State fiscal year 1995, the State contributions |
5 | | shall be
paid to the System in accordance with Section 18-7 of |
6 | | the School Code.
|
7 | | (b-1) Beginning in State fiscal year 1996, on the 15th day |
8 | | of each month,
or as soon thereafter as may be practicable, the |
9 | | Board shall submit vouchers
for payment of State contributions |
10 | | to the System, in a total monthly amount of
one-twelfth of the |
11 | | required annual State contribution certified under
subsection |
12 | | (a-1).
From the
effective date of this amendatory Act of the |
13 | | 93rd General Assembly
through June 30, 2004, the Board shall |
14 | | not submit vouchers for the
remainder of fiscal year 2004 in |
15 | | excess of the fiscal year 2004
certified contribution amount |
16 | | determined under this Section
after taking into consideration |
17 | | the transfer to the System
under subsection (a) of Section |
18 | | 6z-61 of the State Finance Act.
These vouchers shall be paid by |
19 | | the State Comptroller and
Treasurer by warrants drawn on the |
20 | | funds appropriated to the System for that
fiscal year.
|
21 | | If in any month the amount remaining unexpended from all |
22 | | other appropriations
to the System for the applicable fiscal |
23 | | year (including the appropriations to
the System under Section |
24 | | 8.12 of the State Finance Act and Section 1 of the
State |
25 | | Pension Funds Continuing Appropriation Act) is less than the |
26 | | amount
lawfully vouchered under this subsection, the |
|
| | HB3411 | - 195 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | difference shall be paid from the
Common School Fund under the |
2 | | continuing appropriation authority provided in
Section 1.1 of |
3 | | the State Pension Funds Continuing Appropriation Act.
|
4 | | (b-2) Allocations from the Common School Fund apportioned |
5 | | to school
districts not coming under this System shall not be |
6 | | diminished or affected by
the provisions of this Article.
|
7 | | (b-3) For State fiscal years 2014 through 2043, the minimum |
8 | | contribution
to the System to be made by the State for each |
9 | | fiscal year shall be an amount
determined by the System to be |
10 | | equal to the sum of (1) the State's portion of the projected |
11 | | normal cost for that fiscal year, plus (2) an amount sufficient |
12 | | to bring the total assets of the
System up to 100% of the total |
13 | | actuarial liabilities of the System by the end of
State fiscal |
14 | | year 2043. In making these determinations, the required State
|
15 | | contribution shall be calculated each year as a level |
16 | | percentage of payroll
over the years remaining to and including |
17 | | fiscal year 2043 and shall be
determined under the projected |
18 | | unit credit actuarial cost method. |
19 | | Beginning in State fiscal year 2044, the minimum State |
20 | | contribution for each fiscal year shall be the amount needed to |
21 | | maintain the total assets of the System at 100% of the total |
22 | | actuarial liabilities of the System. |
23 | | For State fiscal years 2012 and 2013 through 2045 , the |
24 | | minimum contribution
to the System to be made by the State for |
25 | | each fiscal year shall be an amount
determined by the System to |
26 | | be sufficient to bring the total assets of the
System up to 90% |
|
| | HB3411 | - 196 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | of the total actuarial liabilities of the System by the end of
|
2 | | State fiscal year 2045. In making these determinations, the |
3 | | required State
contribution shall be calculated each year as a |
4 | | level percentage of payroll
over the years remaining to and |
5 | | including fiscal year 2045 and shall be
determined under the |
6 | | projected unit credit actuarial cost method.
|
7 | | For State fiscal years 1996 through 2005, the State |
8 | | contribution to the
System, as a percentage of the applicable |
9 | | employee payroll, shall be increased
in equal annual increments |
10 | | so that by State fiscal year 2011, the State is
contributing at |
11 | | the rate required under this Section; except that in the
|
12 | | following specified State fiscal years, the State contribution |
13 | | to the System
shall not be less than the following indicated |
14 | | percentages of the applicable
employee payroll, even if the |
15 | | indicated percentage will produce a State
contribution in |
16 | | excess of the amount otherwise required under this subsection
|
17 | | and subsection (a), and notwithstanding any contrary |
18 | | certification made under
subsection (a-1) before the effective |
19 | | date of this amendatory Act of 1998:
10.02% in FY 1999;
10.77% |
20 | | in FY 2000;
11.47% in FY 2001;
12.16% in FY 2002;
12.86% in FY |
21 | | 2003; and
13.56% in FY 2004.
|
22 | | Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article, the |
23 | | total required State
contribution for State fiscal year 2006 is |
24 | | $534,627,700.
|
25 | | Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article, the |
26 | | total required State
contribution for State fiscal year 2007 is |
|
| | HB3411 | - 197 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | $738,014,500.
|
2 | | For each of State fiscal years 2008 through 2009, the State |
3 | | contribution to
the System, as a percentage of the applicable |
4 | | employee payroll, shall be
increased in equal annual increments |
5 | | from the required State contribution for State fiscal year |
6 | | 2007, so that by State fiscal year 2011, the
State is |
7 | | contributing at the rate otherwise required under this Section.
|
8 | | Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article, the |
9 | | total required State contribution for State fiscal year 2010 is |
10 | | $2,089,268,000 and shall be made from the proceeds of bonds |
11 | | sold in fiscal year 2010 pursuant to Section 7.2 of the General |
12 | | Obligation Bond Act, less (i) the pro rata share of bond sale |
13 | | expenses determined by the System's share of total bond |
14 | | proceeds, (ii) any amounts received from the Common School Fund |
15 | | in fiscal year 2010, and (iii) any reduction in bond proceeds |
16 | | due to the issuance of discounted bonds, if applicable. |
17 | | Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article, the
|
18 | | total required State contribution for State fiscal year 2011 is
|
19 | | the amount recertified by the System on or before April 1, 2011 |
20 | | pursuant to subsection (a-1) of this Section and shall be made |
21 | | from the proceeds of bonds
sold in fiscal year 2011 pursuant to |
22 | | Section 7.2 of the General
Obligation Bond Act, less (i) the |
23 | | pro rata share of bond sale
expenses determined by the System's |
24 | | share of total bond
proceeds, (ii) any amounts received from |
25 | | the Common School Fund
in fiscal year 2011, and (iii) any |
26 | | reduction in bond proceeds
due to the issuance of discounted |
|
| | HB3411 | - 198 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | bonds, if applicable. This amount shall include, in addition to |
2 | | the amount certified by the System, an amount necessary to meet |
3 | | employer contributions required by the State as an employer |
4 | | under paragraph (e) of this Section, which may also be used by |
5 | | the System for contributions required by paragraph (a) of |
6 | | Section 16-127. |
7 | | Beginning in State fiscal year 2046, the minimum State |
8 | | contribution for
each fiscal year shall be the amount needed to |
9 | | maintain the total assets of
the System at 90% of the total |
10 | | actuarial liabilities of the System.
|
11 | | Amounts received by the System pursuant to Section 25 of |
12 | | the Budget Stabilization Act or Section 8.12 of the State |
13 | | Finance Act in any fiscal year do not reduce and do not |
14 | | constitute payment of any portion of the minimum State |
15 | | contribution required under this Article in that fiscal year. |
16 | | Such amounts shall not reduce, and shall not be included in the |
17 | | calculation of, the required State contributions under this |
18 | | Article in any future year until the System has reached a |
19 | | funding ratio of at least 100% 90% . A reference in this Article |
20 | | to the "required State contribution" or any substantially |
21 | | similar term does not include or apply to any amounts payable |
22 | | to the System under Section 25 of the Budget Stabilization Act. |
23 | | Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, the |
24 | | required State
contribution for State fiscal year 2005 and for |
25 | | fiscal year 2008 and each fiscal year thereafter through State |
26 | | fiscal year 2013 , as
calculated under this Section and
|
|
| | HB3411 | - 199 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | certified under subsection (a-1), shall not exceed an amount |
2 | | equal to (i) the
amount of the required State contribution that |
3 | | would have been calculated under
this Section for that fiscal |
4 | | year if the System had not received any payments
under |
5 | | subsection (d) of Section 7.2 of the General Obligation Bond |
6 | | Act, minus
(ii) the portion of the State's total debt service |
7 | | payments for that fiscal
year on the bonds issued in fiscal |
8 | | year 2003 for the purposes of that Section 7.2, as determined
|
9 | | and certified by the Comptroller, that is the same as the |
10 | | System's portion of
the total moneys distributed under |
11 | | subsection (d) of Section 7.2 of the General
Obligation Bond |
12 | | Act. In determining this maximum for State fiscal years 2008 |
13 | | through 2010, however, the amount referred to in item (i) shall |
14 | | be increased, as a percentage of the applicable employee |
15 | | payroll, in equal increments calculated from the sum of the |
16 | | required State contribution for State fiscal year 2007 plus the |
17 | | applicable portion of the State's total debt service payments |
18 | | for fiscal year 2007 on the bonds issued in fiscal year 2003 |
19 | | for the purposes of Section 7.2 of the General
Obligation Bond |
20 | | Act, so that, by State fiscal year 2011, the
State is |
21 | | contributing at the rate otherwise required under this Section.
|
22 | | (c) Payment of the required State contributions and of all |
23 | | pensions,
retirement annuities, death benefits, refunds, and |
24 | | other benefits granted
under or assumed by this System, and all |
25 | | expenses in connection with the
administration and operation |
26 | | thereof, are obligations of the State.
|
|
| | HB3411 | - 200 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | If members are paid from special trust or federal funds |
2 | | which are
administered by the employing unit, whether school |
3 | | district or other
unit, the employing unit shall pay to the |
4 | | System from such
funds the full accruing retirement costs based |
5 | | upon that
service, as determined by the System. Employer |
6 | | contributions, based on
salary paid to members from federal |
7 | | funds, may be forwarded by the distributing
agency of the State |
8 | | of Illinois to the System prior to allocation, in an
amount |
9 | | determined in accordance with guidelines established by such
|
10 | | agency and the System.
|
11 | | (d) Effective July 1, 1986, any employer of a teacher as |
12 | | defined in
paragraph (8) of Section 16-106 shall pay the |
13 | | employer's normal cost
of benefits based upon the teacher's |
14 | | service, in addition to
employee contributions, as determined |
15 | | by the System. Such employer
contributions shall be forwarded |
16 | | monthly in accordance with guidelines
established by the |
17 | | System.
|
18 | | However, with respect to benefits granted under Section |
19 | | 16-133.4 or
16-133.5 to a teacher as defined in paragraph (8) |
20 | | of Section 16-106, the
employer's contribution shall be 12% |
21 | | (rather than 20%) of the member's
highest annual salary rate |
22 | | for each year of creditable service granted, and
the employer |
23 | | shall also pay the required employee contribution on behalf of
|
24 | | the teacher. For the purposes of Sections 16-133.4 and |
25 | | 16-133.5, a teacher
as defined in paragraph (8) of Section |
26 | | 16-106 who is serving in that capacity
while on leave of |
|
| | HB3411 | - 201 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | absence from another employer under this Article shall not
be |
2 | | considered an employee of the employer from which the teacher |
3 | | is on leave.
|
4 | | (e) Beginning July 1, 1998, every employer of a teacher
|
5 | | shall pay to the System an employer contribution computed as |
6 | | follows:
|
7 | | (1) Beginning July 1, 1998 through June 30, 1999, the |
8 | | employer
contribution shall be equal to 0.3% of each |
9 | | teacher's salary.
|
10 | | (2) Beginning July 1, 1999 and thereafter, the employer
|
11 | | contribution shall be equal to 0.58% of each teacher's |
12 | | salary.
|
13 | | The school district or other employing unit may pay these |
14 | | employer
contributions out of any source of funding available |
15 | | for that purpose and
shall forward the contributions to the |
16 | | System on the schedule established
for the payment of member |
17 | | contributions.
|
18 | | These employer contributions are intended to offset a |
19 | | portion of the cost
to the System of the increases in |
20 | | retirement benefits resulting from this
amendatory Act of 1998.
|
21 | | Each employer of teachers is entitled to a credit against |
22 | | the contributions
required under this subsection (e) with |
23 | | respect to salaries paid to teachers
for the period January 1, |
24 | | 2002 through June 30, 2003, equal to the amount paid
by that |
25 | | employer under subsection (a-5) of Section 6.6 of the State |
26 | | Employees
Group Insurance Act of 1971 with respect to salaries |
|
| | HB3411 | - 202 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | paid to teachers for that
period.
|
2 | | The additional 1% employee contribution required under |
3 | | Section 16-152 by
this amendatory Act of 1998 is the |
4 | | responsibility of the teacher and not the
teacher's employer, |
5 | | unless the employer agrees, through collective bargaining
or |
6 | | otherwise, to make the contribution on behalf of the teacher.
|
7 | | If an employer is required by a contract in effect on May |
8 | | 1, 1998 between the
employer and an employee organization to |
9 | | pay, on behalf of all its full-time
employees
covered by this |
10 | | Article, all mandatory employee contributions required under
|
11 | | this Article, then the employer shall be excused from paying |
12 | | the employer
contribution required under this subsection (e) |
13 | | for the balance of the term
of that contract. The employer and |
14 | | the employee organization shall jointly
certify to the System |
15 | | the existence of the contractual requirement, in such
form as |
16 | | the System may prescribe. This exclusion shall cease upon the
|
17 | | termination, extension, or renewal of the contract at any time |
18 | | after May 1,
1998.
|
19 | | (f) If the amount of a teacher's salary for any school year |
20 | | used to determine final average salary exceeds the member's |
21 | | annual full-time salary rate with the same employer for the |
22 | | previous school year by more than 6%, the teacher's employer |
23 | | shall pay to the System, in addition to all other payments |
24 | | required under this Section and in accordance with guidelines |
25 | | established by the System, the present value of the increase in |
26 | | benefits resulting from the portion of the increase in salary |
|
| | HB3411 | - 203 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | that is in excess of 6%. This present value shall be computed |
2 | | by the System on the basis of the actuarial assumptions and |
3 | | tables used in the most recent actuarial valuation of the |
4 | | System that is available at the time of the computation. If a |
5 | | teacher's salary for the 2005-2006 school year is used to |
6 | | determine final average salary under this subsection (f), then |
7 | | the changes made to this subsection (f) by Public Act 94-1057 |
8 | | shall apply in calculating whether the increase in his or her |
9 | | salary is in excess of 6%. For the purposes of this Section, |
10 | | change in employment under Section 10-21.12 of the School Code |
11 | | on or after June 1, 2005 shall constitute a change in employer. |
12 | | The System may require the employer to provide any pertinent |
13 | | information or documentation.
The changes made to this |
14 | | subsection (f) by this amendatory Act of the 94th General |
15 | | Assembly apply without regard to whether the teacher was in |
16 | | service on or after its effective date.
|
17 | | Whenever it determines that a payment is or may be required |
18 | | under this subsection, the System shall calculate the amount of |
19 | | the payment and bill the employer for that amount. The bill |
20 | | shall specify the calculations used to determine the amount |
21 | | due. If the employer disputes the amount of the bill, it may, |
22 | | within 30 days after receipt of the bill, apply to the System |
23 | | in writing for a recalculation. The application must specify in |
24 | | detail the grounds of the dispute and, if the employer asserts |
25 | | that the calculation is subject to subsection (g) or (h) of |
26 | | this Section, must include an affidavit setting forth and |
|
| | HB3411 | - 204 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | attesting to all facts within the employer's knowledge that are |
2 | | pertinent to the applicability of that subsection. Upon |
3 | | receiving a timely application for recalculation, the System |
4 | | shall review the application and, if appropriate, recalculate |
5 | | the amount due.
|
6 | | The employer contributions required under this subsection |
7 | | (f) may be paid in the form of a lump sum within 90 days after |
8 | | receipt of the bill. If the employer contributions are not paid |
9 | | within 90 days after receipt of the bill, then interest will be |
10 | | charged at a rate equal to the System's annual actuarially |
11 | | assumed rate of return on investment compounded annually from |
12 | | the 91st day after receipt of the bill. Payments must be |
13 | | concluded within 3 years after the employer's receipt of the |
14 | | bill.
|
15 | | (g) This subsection (g) applies only to payments made or |
16 | | salary increases given on or after June 1, 2005 but before July |
17 | | 1, 2011. The changes made by Public Act 94-1057 shall not |
18 | | require the System to refund any payments received before
July |
19 | | 31, 2006 (the effective date of Public Act 94-1057). |
20 | | When assessing payment for any amount due under subsection |
21 | | (f), the System shall exclude salary increases paid to teachers |
22 | | under contracts or collective bargaining agreements entered |
23 | | into, amended, or renewed before June 1, 2005.
|
24 | | When assessing payment for any amount due under subsection |
25 | | (f), the System shall exclude salary increases paid to a |
26 | | teacher at a time when the teacher is 10 or more years from |
|
| | HB3411 | - 205 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | retirement eligibility under Section 16-132 or 16-133.2.
|
2 | | When assessing payment for any amount due under subsection |
3 | | (f), the System shall exclude salary increases resulting from |
4 | | overload work, including summer school, when the school |
5 | | district has certified to the System, and the System has |
6 | | approved the certification, that (i) the overload work is for |
7 | | the sole purpose of classroom instruction in excess of the |
8 | | standard number of classes for a full-time teacher in a school |
9 | | district during a school year and (ii) the salary increases are |
10 | | equal to or less than the rate of pay for classroom instruction |
11 | | computed on the teacher's current salary and work schedule.
|
12 | | When assessing payment for any amount due under subsection |
13 | | (f), the System shall exclude a salary increase resulting from |
14 | | a promotion (i) for which the employee is required to hold a |
15 | | certificate or supervisory endorsement issued by the State |
16 | | Teacher Certification Board that is a different certification |
17 | | or supervisory endorsement than is required for the teacher's |
18 | | previous position and (ii) to a position that has existed and |
19 | | been filled by a member for no less than one complete academic |
20 | | year and the salary increase from the promotion is an increase |
21 | | that results in an amount no greater than the lesser of the |
22 | | average salary paid for other similar positions in the district |
23 | | requiring the same certification or the amount stipulated in |
24 | | the collective bargaining agreement for a similar position |
25 | | requiring the same certification.
|
26 | | When assessing payment for any amount due under subsection |
|
| | HB3411 | - 206 - | LRB098 10767 EFG 41183 b |
|
|
1 | | (f), the System shall exclude any payment to the teacher from |
2 | | the State of Illinois or the State Board of Education over |
3 | | which the employer does not have discretion, notwithstanding |
4 | | that the payment is included in the computation of final |
5 | | average salary.
|
6 | | (h) When assessing payment for any amount due under |
7 | | subsection (f), the System shall exclude any salary increase |
8 | | described in subsection (g) of this Section given on or after |
9 | | July 1, 2011 but before July 1, 2014 under a contract or |
10 | | collective bargaining agreement entered into, amended, or |
11 | | renewed on or after June 1, 2005 but before July 1, 2011. |
12 | | Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, any |
13 | | payments made or salary increases given after June 30, 2014 |
14 | | shall be used in assessing payment for any amount due under |
15 | | subsection (f) of this Section.
|
16 | | (i) The System shall prepare a report and file copies of |
17 | | the report with the Governor and the General Assembly by |

(ii) the portion of |
8 | | the unfunded accrued liability assigned to that year by law in |
9 | | accordance with a schedule that distributes payments equitably |
10 | | over a reasonable period of time and in accordance with |

12 | | this Section are contractual obligations protected and |
13 | | enforceable under Article I, Section 16 and Article XIII, |
14 | | Section 5 of the Illinois Constitution. |
15 | | Notwithstanding any other provision of law, if the State |
16 | | fails to pay in a State fiscal year the amount guaranteed under |
17 | | this Section, the System may bring a mandamus action in the |
18 | | Circuit Court of Sangamon County to compel the State to make |
19 | | that payment, irrespective of other remedies that
may be |
20 | | available to the System. In ordering the State to make the |
21 | | required payment, the court may order a reasonable payment |
22 | | schedule to enable the State to make the required payment |
23 | | without significantly imperiling the public health, safety, or |

15 | | Sec. 16-203. Application and expiration of new benefit |
16 | | increases. |
17 | | (a) As used in this Section, "new benefit increase" means |
18 | | an increase in the amount of any benefit provided under this |
19 | | Article, or an expansion of the conditions of eligibility for |
20 | | any benefit under this Article, that results from an amendment |
21 | | to this Code that takes effect after June 1, 2005 (the |
22 | | effective date of Public Act 94-4). "New benefit increase", |
23 | | however, does not include any benefit increase resulting from |
24 | | the changes made to this Article or Article 1 by Public Act |
25 | | 95-910 or this amendatory Act of the 98th 95th General |

|
1 | | Assembly. |
2 | | (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Code or any |
3 | | subsequent amendment to this Code, every new benefit increase |
4 | | is subject to this Section and shall be deemed to be granted |
5 | | only in conformance with and contingent upon compliance with |
6 | | the provisions of this Section.
|
7 | | (c) The Public Act enacting a new benefit increase must |
8 | | identify and provide for payment to the System of additional |
9 | | funding at least sufficient to fund the resulting annual |
10 | | increase in cost to the System as it accrues. |
11 | | Every new benefit increase is contingent upon the General |
12 | | Assembly providing the additional funding required under this |
13 | | subsection. The Commission on Government Forecasting and |
14 | | Accountability shall analyze whether adequate additional |
15 | | funding has been provided for the new benefit increase and |
16 | | shall report its analysis to the Public Pension Division of the |
17 | | Department of Financial and Professional Regulation. A new |
18 | | benefit increase created by a Public Act that does not include |
19 | | the additional funding required under this subsection is null |
20 | | and void. If the Public Pension Division determines that the |
21 | | additional funding provided for a new benefit increase under |
22 | | this subsection is or has become inadequate, it may so certify |
23 | | to the Governor and the State Comptroller and, in the absence |
24 | | of corrective action by the General Assembly, the new benefit |
25 | | increase shall expire at the end of the fiscal year in which |
26 | | the certification is made.

2 | | its effective date or on such earlier date as may be specified |
3 | | in the language enacting the new benefit increase or provided |
4 | | under subsection (c). This does not prevent the General |
5 | | Assembly from extending or re-creating a new benefit increase |
6 | | by law. |
7 | | (e) Except as otherwise provided in the language creating |
8 | | the new benefit increase, a new benefit increase that expires |
9 | | under this Section continues to apply to persons who applied |
10 | | and qualified for the affected benefit while the new benefit |
11 | | increase was in effect and to the affected beneficiaries and |
12 | | alternate payees of such persons, but does not apply to any |
13 | | other person, including without limitation a person who |
14 | | continues in service after the expiration date and did not |
15 | | apply and qualify for the affected benefit while the new |
16 | | benefit increase was in effect.

If a system |
