BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA AS
FOLLOWS:
Section 1.
The City Council hereby finds, determines and declares as follows:
A.
Paul Walters ("Interim Police Chief') was appointed to serve as the
Interim Police Chief, for a limited duration.
B.
The Interim Police Chief is a retired member of the California Public
Employees' Retirement System (CaIPERS) and, with certain
exceptions is permitted to serve for not more than 960-hours for any
PERS covered employer in any year without reinstatement from
retirement or loss or interruption of benefits.
C.
The Interim Police Chief possesses specialized skills acquired from a
long and distinguished career in law enforcement, including previous
service as a Police Chief in California.
D.
The City of Santa Ana previously deemed the position of Interim Police
Chief to be a position of limited duration and requiring specialized
skills.
E.
Government Code Section 21221 (h) provides that when an
appointment to a position deemed by the governing body to be of a
limited duration and requiring specialized skills is expected to, or will,
exceed 960-hours in any calendar year the governing body shall
request approval from the CalPERS Board of Administration to extend
the temporary employment.
F.
The City has determined that the appointment of the Interim Police
Chief will exceed 960-hours during the 2005 calendar year and that it
is desirable to retain the Interim Police Chief because of his knowledge
of the Santa Ana Police Department and the Santa Ana community.

to assist the City of Santa Ana in recruiting a qualified successor Police
Chief to meet the community's service needs, to continue development
of internal candidates to compete for selection as successor Police
Chief, and to provide continuity and stability in the City's public safety
and security services during this process.
H.
It is now desired by the City Council of the City of Santa Ana to request
of the Board of Administration of the California Public Employees'
Retirement System ("Board") to allow employment of the Interim Police
Chief to extend beyond the 960 hour limit for the balance of the 2005
calendar year, unless sooner terminated by reason of the appointment
and assumption of duties of a successor Police Chief of this City.

this resolution to the Board prior to the expiration of the 960-hour maximum for the
calendar year.
