Executive Summary:
The Sonoma County Employees’ Retirement Association (SCERA) Board must hold elections for the various member representatives as their terms of office expire as outlined in the SCERA Bylaws. In the event that only one member is nominated, Government Code Section 31523 instructs the Board of Supervisors to order that no election be held and to direct the County Clerk to cast a unanimous ballot in favor of the nominated member.
Just one candidate nomination, Brian Williams, was received for the Seventh Board Member (active Safety member) position at the close of the nomination period on October 28, 2021. Mr. Williams will serve a three-year term from January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2024.
Discussion:
The SCERA Board of Retirement is comprised of nine members, plus one alternate retiree member. Four of the trustees are appointed by the Sonoma County Board of Supervisors, five are elected by SCERA's membership (two general, one safety, one retired, one retired alternate), and the County Treasurer is elected by the general public. With the exception of the County Treasurer, Board members serve three-year terms of office with no limits on the number of terms that can be served.
Subject to the provisions of Government Code Section 31520.1, any active member of the Sonoma County Employees’ Retirement Association shall be eligible to serve on the Board of Retirement of said association unless prohibited by law.
