On or before January 15, 1968, and on or before January 15 of each year thereafter, the amount of any allowances provided by this chapter and not subject to Section 9360.9 shall be adjusted by the board to reflect any increase in cost of living occurring after January 1 of the immediately preceding fiscal year. Effective January 1, 1985, the United States city average of the “Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers,” as published by the United States Bureau of Statistics, shall be used as the basis for determining the changes in the cost of living.
For the period from January 1, 1978, through December 31, 1984, the average of the separate indices of the “Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers” for the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim area and the San Francisco-Oakland area, as published by the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics, shall be used as the basis for determining the changes in the cost of living. For the period prior to January 1, 1978, the average of the separate indices for the Los Angeles-Long Beach area and the San Francisco-Oakland area, as published by the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics, shall be used as the basis for determining the changes in the cost of living.
The cost-of-living increase shall equal or exceed 1 percent before any adjustment is made in the allowance. The adjustment provided by this section shall be made only if it operates to effect an increase over the allowance payable for the calendar year immediately preceding.
