“Alameda” Decision Update
December 21, 2022

The Orange County Board of Supervisors passed a resolution on December 20, 2022, possibly impacting the retirement benefits of some AOCDS members, specifically Peace Officers and Supervising Peace Officers with the Orange County Sheriff’s Department and the Orange County District Attorney’s Office.

Orange County Employees Retirement System (OCERS) is reviewing the resolution carefully, engaging with our Legal Team, and with County of Orange staff to determine the potential impact to active, deferred, and retired members.

The last two years have been a challenging time for all our members, including the dedicated staff here at OCERS. Throughout the two-year pandemic, our team has continued to serve members via the myOCERS member portal, over the phone, as well as using tools such as the website, online seminars, email and traditional mail.

Even as the nation slowly returns to normal, OCERS’ staff has been faced by another challenge – a record-setting number of retirements.
