Limited Term Retirement Plan for Elected Officials

LACERS operates a Limited Term Retirement Plan for elected officials. This plan is a defined contribution plan designed for elected officials who might not become eligible for the LACERS defined benefit plan because they may not accrue five or more years of continuous City service. An elected official who later accrues five or more years of continuous City service may opt to join the LACERS defined benefit plan. There are advantages to both types of retirement plans and your decision should be based on an understanding of these differences.

For more information regarding the LACERS Limited Term Retirement Plan, please review the Limited Term Retirement Plan Information Sheet and Comparison of LACERS Defined Benefit Plan to LTRP.
