Bill Summary
Under current law, certain Denver school of science and technology charter schools (DSST schools) are excluded from the Denver public schools division of the public employees' retirement association (PERA). The bill affiliates DSST schools with PERA. The bill also adds one voting member to the PERA board of trustees. The added member is to be elected from the Denver public schools division through a Denver public schools division election administered by PERA. The added member replaces a nonvoting ex officio board member from the Denver public schools division, whom the bill removes from the board.
AI Summary
This bill modifies the Public Employees' Retirement Association (PERA) by affiliating Denver School of Science and Technology (DSST) charter schools with PERA, meaning their employees will now be part of the PERA retirement system. It also expands the PERA Board of Trustees, which oversees the retirement system, by adding one voting member elected by and from the Denver Public Schools (DPS) division, replacing a previously non-voting ex officio member from that division. This change aims to give the DPS division more direct representation on the board.
