<br />Current OPEB Liabilities
<br />Notwithstanding technical accounting requirements, GASB 45 requires Pleasanton to
<br />utilize acceptable actuarial standards to determine its OPEB liability, to identify the
<br />amount of funding, if any, that will be applied to meet the total OPEB obligation and to
<br />select an investment vehicle for funding its contributions to the OPEB. One important
<br />step in meeting the GASB ruling is the identification of existing reserves that may be
<br />applied to meeting the City's OPEB. As indicated in Table 1, the City estimates a June
<br />30, 2009, balance of $48.2 million that is available to meet post retirement health costs.
<br />A summary of these reserves is as follows.
