Marin County Pension Reform Policy Guidelines

The Marin County Board of Supervisors recognizes that public employee retirement costs are unsustainable without reform. Given the economic downturn and changing demographics, the increased costs of post-employment benefits compete with limited public resources for vital services to our residents, including health and human services, public safety, parks, roads, transportation and many other services. Our overall goal to guide pension reform is to be fair to our employees and fiscally responsible to our residents.  

This document outlines steps already taken and work being done to achieve more sustainable benefit levels.
