Notwithstanding any other provision of law, and except as provided in Section 21310.5, the retirement allowance of a member shall be increased to reflect cost-of-living adjustments to the limits contained in Section 415 of Title 26 of the United States Code as provided in Section 415(d) of that code, provided that the member’s allowance determined without regard to Section 415 equals or exceeds the applicable limit as indexed. Nothing in this section is intended to, nor shall be construed to, entitle a retired member to a cost-of-living adjustment to his or her allowance in excess of that provided pursuant to Part 3 (commencing with Section 20000).
(Amended by Stats. 2009, Ch. 130, Sec. 32. (AB 966) Effective January 1, 2010. Conditionally inoperative as prescribed in Section 21763.)
