Description

MOSK, J. --In this case we are called upon to decide whether a county's decision to enter an agreement with the California Public Employees' Retirement System (PERS), to enable their employees to join PERS's retirement plan, is subject to approval or rejection by the local electorate via referendum. Respondent Trinity County (the County) advances several constitutional and statutory arguments designed to establish that decisions of a county board of supervisors regarding employee compensation generally, and decisions regarding the adoption or implementation of memoranda of understanding (sometimes referred to hereafter as MOU's) between public employers and employees in particular, are not subject to referendum. Appellant Voters for Responsible Retirement (VFRR) contends, on the contrary, that a referendum is in this instance constitutionally compelled.
