County CFO asked the board to approve an adoption-agreement amendment to specify the status of on-call employees after a MERS audit; the board approved the administrative change clarifying definitions and noted there are no benefit changes.

The board approved an amendment to the county’s defined-benefit MERS adoption agreement to clarify the "on-call" status of a specified employee group after routine audit findings. The county’s CFO explained the change is administrative and does not alter benefit levels: "There's no benefit changes. Nothing changes. We just need to amend the agreement," the CFO said.

Commissioners approved the amendment on a motion; one commissioner asked for an updated funding/payoff status and the CFO agreed to provide a current report during the audit cycle. The item passed with standard support and no recorded opposition.
