Any member may redeposit in the retirement system, in one sum or in not to exceed twenty-four (24) bi-weekly payments, an amount equal to that which he or she withdrew therefrom at the last termination of his or her membership. If a member upon reentering the retirement system after a termination of his or her membership shall not redeposit at least the accumulated normal contributions so withdrawn by him or her, he or she shall reenter as a new member without credit for any service and the rate of his or her contribution for future years shall be the normal rate provided for in this chapter for his or her age of reentrance. If such member redeposits his or her accumulated contributions, his or her normal rate of contribution for future years shall be based on an age determined by adding the number of completed years of his or her absence from membership, beginning with the earliest termination of his or her membership included in such redeposit, to the age upon which his or her normal rate of contribution, as it was prior to the termination, was based. In that event, city service with which he or she was credited when his or her membership was terminated shall be recredited to him or her, and his or her membership shall be the same as if it were unbroken by termination, beginning with the earliest termination included in such redeposit. (Prior code § 34.11.1106)

Sacramento City Code § 2.124.1940 Transfer of city contributions.

2.124.1940 Transfer of city contributions. Except as herein provided, no transfer of accumulated contributions of the city shall be made on account of the withdrawal of accumulated contributions by a member, or on account of the death of a member which does not qualify for an allowance under this chapter, but upon the death or retirement of a person who is a member under Articles III, IV and VI of this chapter, accumulated contributions of the city previously held for the benefit of such member, actuarially equivalent to that portion of the allowance granted to him or her or to his or her beneficiary, which is chargeable to service rendered as a member of the retirement system, shall thereafter be included in the amounts available to meet the obligation of the city on account of prior service to members. Upon the withdrawal of accumulated contributions by a person who is a member under Article V of this chapter, the accumulated contributions of the city made on behalf of said person, as determined by the board, shall be used together with other available member and city contributions, to meet the obligation of the members and the city to pay the allowances and benefits provided by Article V of this chapter.
