The Contra Costa County Employees' Retirement Association (CCCERA) is administered by the Board of Retirement, an independent public entity responsible for general management of the association. With assistance from qualified professionals in the pension industry, the Board adopts regulations, policies and procedures that are relevant to CCCERA, for the purpose of benefiting the members. CCCERA is also governed by the California Constitution and the regulations, procedures and policies adopted by CCCERA’s Board. The Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors may also adopt resolutions which affect member benefits, as permitted by the County Employees’ Retirement Law of 1937.
On June 30, 2019, the term for seat #4 on the County Retirement Board will expire, creating a vacancy. At the direction of the Internal Operations Committee, staff initiated a four-week recruitment by issuing a press release (attached) on April 2nd advertising the vacancy, with an application deadline of April 26th.
For advisory body vacancies, our standard advertising includes:
- Posting a notice in the News Flash section of the homepage for the duration of the nomination period.
- Promoting with a recruitment announcement on CCTV’s CountyNet bulletin board
- Emailing to area print/online publications, plus KCBS Radio and KKDV Radio.
The recruitment garnered two applications, from incumbent Scott Gordon and Paula Troy, both of Martinez. The term of office for the vacant Board of Supervisors appointee seat is July 1, 2019 - June 30, 2022.
