Except as may be otherwise provided elsewhere in this Chapter 3.28, all members of this System must make monthly (or biweekly, if compensation is paid biweekly by the City) normal contributions to this System. The normal contribution required of a member for each month (or for each two (2) weeks, if compensation is paid biweekly by the City) shall be a percentage of compensation earned (or of "compensation earnable" when so required by other provisions of this Chapter 3.28) by him or her in such period. Said percentage is hereinafter referred to as members' "normal rate of contribution." Non-Tier 2 members and Tier 2 members may have a different rate of contribution. Except as otherwise provided in Section 3.28.710 or another provision of this Chapter 3.28, all non-Tier 2 members will have the same normal rate of contribution. The normal rate of contribution may be different among Tier 2 members, but shall be the same percentage for all Tier 2 members of the same bargaining unit unless otherwise provided under Section 3.28.710 or another provision of this Chapter 3.28. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 3.28.700, the normal contributions of a member subject to Section 3.28.725 shall be paid by the City, as described in that Section 3.28.725.
