MEMORANDUM

TO: Board of Trustees

FROM: Mr. Martin Noven Executive Director

RE: Board Training Requirements and Travel Approval

DATE: May 26, 2020

In order to assist Trustees in obtaining the 8 hours of annual training required by Public Act 96-0006, staff has developed the attached list of upcoming training opportunities. This list will be updated and provided to the Trustees with the regular meeting materials.

Public Act 96-0006 also requires that all Board travel be approved by a majority of Trustees in order to qualify for reimbursement of expenses in accordance with the Board’s Travel Approval and Expense Reimbursement Policy. Each Trustee is eligible to be reimbursed for two out-of-state trips, each fiscal year, for educational purposes. SURS is a voting member of the Council of Institutional Investors (“CII”). In March of 2013, the SURS travel policy was amended, to provide that attendance at the semi-annual meetings of CII not be included in the two-per-year limit for board member attendance at educational conferences, since such conferences are not educational meetings, rather, are working meetings of an organization of which SURS is a member.

Staff Recommends that the following motions be approved at this time:

• That the Board of Trustees travel to attend conferences or trainings listed on theJune 2020 list of Upcoming Training Opportunities be approved and that allresulting allowable expenses consistent with SURS travel policy be reimbursed.

MEMORANDUM

TO: SURS Board of Trustees

FROM: Bianca T. Green, General Counsel

DATE: May 28, 2020

RE: July 2020 Proposed Rulemaking Change – JCAR Rule 1600.730 Return of Ballots and Ballot Counting Process

Staff proposes making substantive changes to the SURS regulations relating to the ballot counting process for trustee elections. The proposed changes are needed to address the potential problem that could occur when we have elections for unexpired trustee seats and elections for regular six (6) year seats occurring at the same time.

Section 1600.730 – Return of Ballots and Ballot Counting Process

The current administrative rule pertaining to the “Return of Ballots and Ballot Counting Process” provides direction for Secretary of the Board in the event of a tie. However, the rule is silent with regard to how to handle two concurrent elections for either annuitant and/or contributing member trustee seats where it would be possible to have too many “winners” who are affiliated with the University of Illinois.

SURS is only allowed to have a maximum of one (1) annuitant trustee and (2) contributing member trustees who are affiliated with the University of Illinois campuses. This is easy to regulate when we only have regular six-year term elections. But we have the potential for a problem when SURS has to conduct two separate elections for annuitant and/or contributing member elections when we need to fill unexpired terms and regular six-year terms at the same time. This will be the case in the 2021 election and we do not have an administrative rule to formally address this situation.

Again, we can only have one U of I Annuitant Trustee on the SURS board but in 2021 we will have 2 separate annuitant elections: 1 for the unexpired term (Mitch Vogel’s seat) and 1 for the full six-year term (Fred Giertz’s seat). It is conceivable that University of Illinois affiliated candidates could be the top vote-getters in both elections but we cannot allow that by law. With two separate elections and an unknown number of potential candidates, we cannot be sure that the same number of votes will be cast in each election. As such, we cannot use the highest vote-getter tabulation to determine the overall outcome. So—if the highest vote-getters in both the full 6-year term annuitant election and in the unexpired term annuitant election are affiliated with the U of I campuses – the new rule will result in the U of I affiliated candidate being declared the winner in the six-year term election and the U of I affiliated candidate in the unexpired term

Exhitbit 5

Page 16: MINUTES - surs.org

2

election will be disqualified. We believe this is the best way to handle the situation because the six-year term provides the longest commitment. The next-highest, non-U of I affiliated vote-getter in the unexpired term annuitant election will be declared the winner of that election. The same process would be applied if the situation occurred in a contributing member election and the rule provides for applicability to both categories. To Illustrate: If a SIU candidate is the highest vote-getter in the 6-year term annuitant election and the highest vote-getter in the unexpired term annuitant election is affiliated with the U of I (or vice versa) – we will not have a problem. And, if neither of the highest vote-getters in either election is affiliated with the U of I, we will not have a problem. The proposed rule change will only come into play IF candidates affiliated with the University of Illinois are the highest vote-getters in BOTH elections. To further illustrate, below are mock election results: Full six(6) year term annuitant election results (voting for 1): U of I candidate A – 10,0000 votes - WINNER SIU candidate – 7,500 votes EIU candidate – 2,300 votes City Colleges candidate – 2,000 votes Unexpired term annuitant election results (voting for 1): U of I candidate B – 12,000 votes – Disqualified due to winner of the 6-year term election Western IL candidate – 9,500 votes -- WINNER ISU candidate – 1,500 votes We need to plan for handling this potential scenario in both annuitant and participant elections. We want to be able to announce the plan for handling such a scenario when we issue the first announcement for the upcoming election in October of 2020. This plan may affect which seat potential candidates run for and we want them to know how we plan to handle such a situation. The proposed rule change formalizes our plan for these scenarios. Staff Recommendation: That the SURS Board of Trustees approve the proposed rulemaking changes to Section 1600.730 as a proposed Rulemaking Change for First Notice publication by JCAR and the Secretary of State as required.

All remaining University of Illinois affiliated candidates shall immediately be disqualified regardless of the number of votes they received or the elected term for which they ran. Each remaining seat shall then be filled by the non-University of Illinois candidate receiving the highest number of votes for that seat.
