Concerning modifications to the public employees' retirement association.
Bill Summary:
Under current law, certain Denver school of science and technology charter schools (DSST schools) are excluded from the Denver public schools division of the public employees' retirement association (PERA). The bill affiliates DSST schools with PERA. The bill also adds one voting member to the PERA board of trustees. The added member is to be elected from the Denver public schools division through a Denver public schools division election administered by PERA. The added member replaces a nonvoting ex officio board member from the Denver public schools division, whom the bill removes from the board.
(Note: This summary applies to the reengrossed version of this bill as introduced in the second house.)
