CityCouncil | 2015-12-15 | 3 | 537 Councilmember Oddie moved approval of the staff recommendation. Councilmember Ezzy Ashcraft seconded the motion. Under discussion, Councilmember Daysog inquired whether the trust is the trust addressed in April 2015 which would pay down the OPEB liability, to which the Finance Director responded in the affirmative. Councilmember Daysog stated he is concerned about the trust being undercapitalized. Mayor Spencer stated that she did not support the MOU and will not support the recommendation, which she feels jeopardizes the fiscal health of the City. Councilmember Oddie stated the bargaining unit signed the MOU; voting no is a violation of the Council's fiduciary duties. Mayor Spencer stated that she would not support the action because it is a partial solution. Councilmember Ezzy Ashcraft stated the underfunding problem will not be solved overnight; the money will be placed in an interest bearing account; she hopes the Council majority will go forward with the appropriation. Councilmember Daysog stated his concern is that public safety employees will be contributing money for retirement into a fund that will run out. Mayor Spencer noted the current Council voted on the MOU on April 29, 2015; the vote was 3 to 2.
