RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Human Resources Director, or designee, to execute the first of two possible one-year extensions to the Administrative Services Agreement with the Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company (MassMutual), effective April 1, 2017, to extend the term from April 1, 2017 to March 31, 2018 to continue to provide plan administration for the 457 Deferred Compensation Plan.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The program is funded through plan participant fees. There is no fiscal impact beyond overhead administration support costs, which are reimbursed annually by the plan.

BACKGROUND:

Effective April 1 2014 the Board of Supervisors authorized the Human Resources Department to negotiate a new three-year contract with Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Life Insurance Company (“MassMutual”), with regards to the administration of the Contra Costa County 457 Deferred Compensation Plan. This agreement allowed for two (2) one-year extensions. MassMutual provides the recordkeeping and other administrative services required to maintain compliance for this type of plan as well as a platform for employees to access information on their current investments and plan performance.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If the Administrative Services Agreement is not extended, the 457 Deferred Compensation Plan will be without a plan administrator.
