2005 California Government Code Sections 20710-20712 Article 2. Additional Contributions

20710.  Subject to rules prescribed by the board, any member or any
employer, other than the state, on behalf of any group of
miscellaneous members, any group of members designated by the
employer as management employees, or any members, may elect to make
contributions in excess of the member's normal contributions, for the
purpose of providing additional benefits.  The exercise of this
privilege by a member does not require his or her employer to make
any additional contributions.  An election by an employer to make the
additional contributions does not require any member to make
additional contributions and the additional contributions shall
continue in effect for the period as shall be specified in the
election filed with the board and a member shall acquire no right by
reason of his or her employment while the election is in effect to a
continuation of those contributions beyond the period specified in
the election.  Upon application, the board shall furnish information
concerning the nature and amount of additional benefits to be
obtained from additional contributions.  The board may by rule
provide for refund of accumulated additional contributions to a
member.  However, a refund of additional contributions may be made to
a member if an employer had made additional contributions on his or
her behalf only as a part of a refund of accumulated contributions in
accordance with this part.
   Wherever in this part provision is made with respect to additional
or accumulated additional contributions of a member the term shall
include contributions made by an employer pursuant to this article.
   The board shall provide for additional employer contributions to
be credited at least monthly to the individual account of the member
on behalf of whom the contribution is made.
20711.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this part, a member
may at any time, in writing, authorize the board to apply any
additional contributions standing to the member's credit as payment
of any contributions required of the member or payable at the member'
s option pursuant to any provision of this part, except the normal
monthly contributions required in Article 1 (commencing with Section
20670).
20712.  An election by any member or any employer to make additional
contributions in accordance with Section 20710 shall be effective
only if it was filed with the board on or before June 30, 1983.
Additional contributions may be made on and after July 1, 1983, in
accordance with the terms of an election filed on or before June 30,
1983.  A refund of accumulated additional contributions or an
application of accumulated additional contributions as payment of any
required contribution under Section 20711 shall terminate the
privilege of making additional contributions if the refund or
application occurs on or after July 1, 1983.
