August29, 2012
SUBJECT: DISCUSSION REGARDING THE BUDGET ADVISORY COMMITTEE'S
PROPOSED RECOMMENDATIONS CONCERNING PENSION REFORM
BACKGROUND
The City currently has two (2) pension plans, which include the City Pension Fund for
Firefighters and Police Officers in the City of Miami Beach and the Miami Beach
Employees' Retirement Plan (MBERP). During the previous collective bargaining
process for the City's five (5) collective bargaining units, issues were raised concerning
the long-term fiscal health of the City's two (2) pension plans in terms of the growing
unfunded liability, the funding ratio percentages of each plan and the growing costs of
the plans as they relate to percentage of payroll. As a result, the City and the Unions
negotiated several changes that were implemented for each of the pension plans for
both, current and future employees in November 2011. In particular, the General
Employees' pension plan (MBERP) was amended to include significant pension reform
initiatives that will significantly reduce the City's pension contributions in the short-term,
mid-term and long-term. Although the changes made to both plans will yield both short-
term and long-term savings, these changes fail to fully address the increasing costs
derived from the benefits that are currently provided to the pension plan members,
particularly in the Fire and Police Pension Plan, which represents the fastest growing
costs to the City's budget in recent years.
In early 2011, the Mayor approached the City's Budget Advisory Committee (BAC)
regarding undertaking a study of pension reform for each of the pension plans in an
effort to identify options available to ensure the long-term sustainability of the Plans,
particularly the Police and Fire Pension system which represents the fastest growing
costs to the City budget within recent years. The Mayor's Charge" to the BAC was:
" ... to develop recommendations that address the benefits and funding concerns
associated with the City's pension plans. While the BAC will examine all retirement
benefits, the focus will be to address the Fire and Police pension system, as this plan
has significantly greater cost to the City that the General Employees' pension plan."
More specifically, the requested deliverable work product was:
" ... to develop a series of written, implementable recommendations that address the
long-term sustainability of the Fire and Police Pension Plan. An explanation of the
recommendations, cost implications , impacts to the City and its employees, advantages
and disadvantages should be included. Recommendations may be split into short-term
and long-term objectives. Subsequently, the BAC may provide additional
recommendations regarding other pension benefits in the City."

BAG Recommendation on Pension Reform
Commission Pension Workshop, August 29, 2012
Page 2
Over the past year, the BAC has held twenty meetings to accomplish their objective by
developing an approach that included the following components:
• Develop an understanding of the City's current pension plans benefits and costs
for the Fire and Police Pension Plan and the Miami Beach Employees'
Retirement Plan (for General employees) from the perspective of legal counsel,
the City's actuary, the City Manager and the pension plan administrator for each
of the City's pension plans (the Fire and Police Pension Plan and the Miami
Beach Employees' Retirement Plan -MBERP).
• Solicit input from the City's collective bargaining groups and employees.
• Survey comparative jurisdictions in the region regarding pension plan costs and
benefits.
• Develop draft policies and guidelines to guide management of the City's pension
plans into the future, (a copy of which is attached for your review).
• Identify and review options of potential changes to the Fire and Police Pension
Plan based on 6 major categories, namely:
o Florida Retirement System (FRS)
o Defined Benefit similar to FRS, including a Social Security equivalent
o Hybrid Plans with both, a defined benefit and a defined contribution
component
o Changes to the existing plan with a combination of past service benefits
and benefits earned prospectively
o Freezing the existing plan and defining new benefits based on Florida
Statute Chapter 175 and 185 minimum benefits to continue receiving
premium taxes
o Changes to the existing plan to reflect the savings associated with plan
changes included in the 2010 collective bargaining agreements with the
International Federation of Fire Fighters (IAFF) and the Fraternal Order of
Police (FOP) that have not yet been implemented by the Fire and Police
Pension Board
• Evaluate the cost impacts of potential options
• Develop Recommendations
On April 17, 2012, by a majority vote of 7-2, the BAC approved a motion for the
Committees' final recommendation on pension reform for the Fire and Police Pension
Plan. The Committee's final recommendation is for the City to negotiate a "Hybrid Plan"
that is comprised of a defined benefit component for Police and Fire employees that are
not vested (have less than ten (10) years of creditable service) and for newly hired
employees that would provide the minimum benefits required to receive Premium Taxes
from the State of Florida, as defined by F.S. Chapters 175 and 185, while also providing
a defined contribution component that will be funded by the City, while employees would
be required to provide a matching contribution. In addition, the Committee is also
recommending that the City negotiate changes for vested Fire and Police Pension Plan
members to achieve thresholds in the policies and guidelines that were adopted by the
BAC. The Committee's final recommendation report is attached.
On August 29, 2012, a Commission Workshop on Pension Reform will be held, where
the BAC will present their final recommendation report to the Mayor and City
Commission. This workshop is intended to be educational and informative in nature.

GLOSSARY OF TERMS
401 (a) Qualified Plans: A retirement plan that meets the requirements of IRC 401 (a) and certain
other sections. The plan, its employees and its retirees receive favorable tax status.
401 (k) Plan: An employer-sponsored retirement plan that permits employees to divert part of their
pay into the plan and avoid current taxes on that income. Money direcxted to the plan may be
partially matched by the employer, and investment earnings within the plan accumulate tax until they
are withdrawn. The 401 (k) is named for the section of the federal tax code that authorizes it.
457(b) Plan: A defined contribution plan, also called a deferred compensation plan, available to
all state and local governmental entitites. Such plans permit employees to defer (that is, move into a
tax-favored account) a portion of their pay. The employee typically directs the investments. Because
of the tax-favored treatment, the employee pays no tax on contributions and earnings until the
individual separates from service of meets other criteria. The IRC limist the amount of the yearly
deferrals. The limit is adjusted for inflation.
Accrued Benefit: The pension benefit an employee earns through participation ina plan as of a
specific date. In a defined benefit plan, once vested, this is the annual benefit an individual receives
at normal retirement age. In a defined contribution plan, this is the balance in the plan account,
whether vested or not.
Accrual/ Accrued Income: Pro-rated income earned, but not yet paid, is called accrued income.
Accrual Rate: The percentage of salary level at which a pension benefit builds up, or accrues, over
years of credited service in a typical defined benefit plan.
Accrued Liability: The actuarial present value of the plan's pension obligations as determined by
an actuarial cost method. It projects the total obligation to cover the costs to provide pensions for
former and present employees and builds these assets over time to cover the liabilities.
Active Participant: An employee not yet retired, participating in a retirement plant, whereby
contributions are made to the plan by the active participant, the employer or both.
Actuarial Assumptions: Projections of anticipated behavior associated with certain plan variables
(such as mortality rates) that are developed by an actuary and then used to make estimates of future
plan costs.
Actuarial Cost Method: A formal actuarial process used to measure the present value of future
pension benefits and perhaps administrative expenses. Its purpose is to develop an allocation of
pension costs and needed contributions to ensure that the plan is sufficiently funded to meet all pension
obligations.

termination or retirement, for leave accrued during the employee's career that was intended for
personal use, but never utilized by the employee .
Annual Required Contribution (ARC): The employer's periodic required contributions to a
defined benefit plan, as defined by GASB. If an employer's contributions fall below the ARC, the
shortfalls must appear in the employer's financial statements.
Annualized Return: Rate of return calculated for an interval of greater than 1 year, such as 2
years or 5 years, expressed in terms of the "average" return for each of the years in the period.
Annuity: A series of regular payments, usually from an insurance company, guaranteed to continue
for a specific time, usually the annuitant's lifetime, in exchange for a single payment to the company.

retirement systems.)
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report-Glossary of Terms
10
Death Benefit: Funds paid to the designated beneficiary of a deceased plan participant.
Deferred Benefit -A benefit to which a member or his designated beneficiary is entitled, but for
which application is voluntarily delayed until a later date. When the benefit application is filed by the
member, the deferred monthly benefit will be calculated based on his/her actual creditable service,
average final compensation at termination, and age at the time of application. If the benefit
application is filed by the member's surviving beneficiary, the deferred monthly benefit will be
calculated based on the member' creditable service, the member's average final compensation at
termination, and the age the member would have been had he/she lived to the date of application.
Deferred Retirement Option Program (DROP) -A retirement feature allowing an employee,
eligible to retire and receive normal benefits from the defined benefit plan, to defer the monthly
benefits while continuing to work. The benefit payments are placed in a separate account until the
deferred retirement period ends. During this time the calculation for years of service and final
compensation formula used to calculate pension benefits is frozen. DROPs can be used for phased
retirement or to retain experienced employees.
Defined Benefit Plan (DB): A retirement plan in which the amount of the pension benefit is set by
a formula established through the plan. Benefits are calculated based on age, length of service, and
final salary. The benefit is payable as a lifetime annuity and possibly for the lifetime of the designated
beneficiary. Benefits are typically paid out in substantially equal periodic payments. The plan funds
these benefits through a combination of employee contributions, employer contributions, and
investment returns. There are no individual accounts.
Defined Contribution Plan (DC) -A plan that provides for an individual account for each
participant and the benefits are based solely on the amount contributed to the participant's account
plus any income, expenses, gains and losses, and forfeitures of accounts. A 401 (k), 403(b) and
457(b) are defined contribution plans. At retirement, the account balance is the total funds available
to provide an individual's retirement benefits and an individual can outlive the fund's balance.
Disability-Total and permanent disability by reason of a medically determinable physical or mental
impairment that prevents a member from rendering useful and efficient service as an officer or
employee. ln·Line·of·Duty Disability-Means disability resulting from an injury or illness arising
out of and in the actual performance of duty required by a member's employment during his regularly
scheduled working hours or irregular working hours as required by the employer. Regular
Disability-Means disability due to injury or illness suffered other than in the line of duty.
Early Retirement -Under a defined benefit plan, "early retirement" is an elective, service-based
retirement that occurs before the member reaches his/her normal retirement age or date. If a member
retires early, he or she will receive a reduced retirement benefitl because he or she has not yet
qualified for normal retirement.
Final Average Monthly Earnings (FAME): Formula used to help determine the member's final
accrued benefit.
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report-Glossary of Terms
11
Florida Administrative Code (FAC) -Rules and regulations of Florida regulatory agencies
divisions of Chapter 120, Florida Statutes.
Florida Retirement System (FRS) -The retirement system established in December 1970 to
consolidate the existing pension plans (now closed retirement systems) and provide a retirement,
disability, and survivor benefit program for participating state and local government employees.
Today, the FRS is a single retirement system consisting of two primary retirement plans and other
nonintegrated programs administered under Chapter 121, Florida Statutes. (The primary plans are the
FRS Pension Plan, a defined benefit plan established under Part I, and the FRS Investment Plan, a
defined contribution plan established under Part II.) In addition to the two primary plans, alternative
optional defined contribution programs are available for specified employee groups under Part I,
including the SUSORP, the CCORP, and the SMSOAP.
Funded Ratio: The funded ratio places the unfunded liabilities in the context of the retirement
system's assets . Expressed as a percentage of a system's liabilities, the funded ratio is calculated by
dividing net assets by the actuarial accrued liabilities. The result is the percentage of the accrued
liabilities that are covered by assets.
Hybrid Plan: Benefit plan that incorporates features of both defined benefit and a defined
contribution plan.
In-Line-of-Duty -In the performance of the duties required by your employer during regular
scheduled work hours or irregular work hours.
Interest -The term may refer to the amount charged on money owed to a trust fund, or, for
participants of the Deferred Retirement Option Program, the term may refer to the amount earned on
retirement benefits that accrue on a participant's behalf. Interest owed is charged from the date
required for the type of creditable service purchased and is compounded annually, while DROP
interest is earned from the month following deposit and is compounded monthly.
Joint Annuitant -A type of beneficiary who is eligible to receive certain continuing benefits upon a
Pension Plan member's death.
Member-Any officer or employee who is covered by the provisions of the pension plan.
Normal Retirement Age or Date -The date when a member first becomes eligible to retire under
the Pension Plan with unreduced benefits, by meeting the age or service requirements for his/her class
of membership. The normal retirement date occurs on the first day of the month that a vested member
attains the required age, or on the first day of the month following the date that a member completes
the required service. "Normal retirement age" is attained on the normal retirement date.
Rate of Return: A mathematical measure of the rate of change in the market value of a fund's
assets. Rates of return reflect both realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, as well as total
earnings from interest and dividends. Contributions of distributions that increase or decrease the total
value of the fund have no effect on investment performance. Often referred to as Performance or Total
Return.
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report-Glossary of Terms
12
Risk: The uncertainty associated with the possibility that actual investment results may not coincide
with the expected rate of return associated with a given level of assumptions about asset mix, quality
of investments and other factors.
Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability (UAAL): The unfunded liability of the plan is the
actuarial accrued liability less the actuarial value of plan assets.
Vest, Vested, or Vesting -Meeting the length-of-service requirements under a retirement plan
necessary for a member to qualify for a future benefit under that plan.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
RECOMMENDATIONS
On April 17, 2012, the Budget Advisory Committee (BAC) approved a motion for Fire and Police
Pension Plan reform combining a number of prior individual motions. The combined motion
includes the following motion and vote counts for pension reform for the Fire and Police Pension
Plan:
• Recommending that the City negotiate Options 11102 for all new and non-vested Fire and
Police Pension Plan members shown in the table on the following page.
Note: this portion of the motion was initially adopted as a separate motion by a 7-2 vote
of the BAC.
• Recommending that the City negotiate changes for vested Fire and Police Pension Plan
members to achieve thresholds in the policies and guidelines adopted by the BAC (see
Section 4 entitled Policies and Guidelines).
Note: This portion of the motion was initially adopted as a separate motion by unanimous
vote of the BAC.

HYBRID OPTION IIID2 FOR NEW AND NON-VESTED EMPLOYEES
Provide a defined benefit component for Police and Fire non-vested and new hire employees to
equal the minimum benefits to receive Premium Taxes from the State as defined by F.S.
Chapter 17 5/185 and a defined contribution component of 11 percent funded by the City (with
employees providing a matching 5% contribution).

*Provided that the City Commission may periodically adjust the COLA up to 1.5% compounded
for a given year, and COLA resets to 0% for the following year unless the City Commission
affirmatively votes to increase above 0% for the next fiscal year
** This represents a minimum consistent with F.S. 175/185 but the defined benefit employee
contribution can be set at any level
Note Premium tax revenues for Fire and Police Plans are expected to continue.
This results in reduction of pension benefits as a percentage of payroll to 21% over 30 years and
a net present value (NPV) savings of $7 4 million over 30 years. In addition, year 1 savings are
estimated at $2.5 million.
While the savings can be achieved by other means, the reduction of risk through a hybrid plan is
the key benefit to the City. The City will retain risk on the defined benefit portion of the pension;
however, the City will have no risk on the defined contribution portion. In this regard, the City's
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report-Executive Summary Page ii
15
risk is reduced by 40-50 percent. The employees will have a new risk associated with the defined
contribution portion of this plan; however, ( 1) this is a risk of investment that a majority of the
public faces (i.e., nearly all private sector employees hove defined contribution plans), and (2)
along with the risk comes the reward as well to the extent that the employee invests wisely. The
reward potential of a defined contribution plan exceeds the reward potential under the current
defined benefit plan.
MAYOR'S CHARGE
In early 2011, the Mayor approached the City's Budget Advisory Committee (BAC) regarding
undertaking a study of pension reform for the City's pension plans. The "Mayor's Charge" to the
BAC was:
" to develop recommendations that address the benefits and funding concerns
associated with the City's pension plans. While the BAC will examine all retirement
benefits, the focus will be to address the Fire and Police pension system, as this plan has a
significantly greater cost to the City than the General Employees' pension plan."
More specifically, the requested deliverable work product was "to develop a series of written,
implementable recommendations that address the long-term sustainability of the Fire and Police
Pension Plan. An explanation of the recommendations, cost implications, impacts to the City and
its employees, advantages, and disadvantages should be included. Recommendations may be
split into short-term and long-term objectives. Subsequently, the BAC may provide additional
recommendations regarding other pension benefits in the City."
While the direction provided by the Mayor did not have specific dates, the desire was to have the
Committee's recommendations finalized in time for the collective bargaining negotiations with the
City's five unions for the contract period October 1, 2012 through September 30, 2015. Initial
discussions centered on a desired goal of January 2012 for preliminary recommendations.
RECENT EVENTS IMPACTING PENSION PLANS
Key events impacting the financial sustainability of City defined Benefit plans have been salary
growth in excess of assumptions and investment return below assumed rates, due to one of the
worst decades of investment returns in the United States. Also we have also reached and
surpassed an inflection point where the number of Fire and Police retirees increasingly exceeds
the number of employees .
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report-Executive Summary Page iii
16
Both plans demonstrate strong investment returns well in excess of assumed rates, prior to 2001 .
However, rates of return post 2001, and particularly since 2008, have been below assumed
rates, thereby helping drive increases in unfunded liabilities and annual contribution requirements
over that time period.
Further, while MBERP salary growth has generally been in line with the assumed salary growth
rate, Fire and Police Plan salary growth has almost consistently exceeded salary growth
assumptions for the base plan, especially considering the fact that the salary basis for retirement
benefits is the average of the last two years' salary, including incentive pays, longevity pays and
approximately 11 percent of overtime that can be counted as pensionable pay.
SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDED PENSION REFORM POLICIES AND GUIDELINES
As part of the evaluation for Pension Reform in the City of Miami Beach, the Budget Advisory
Committee (BAC) is recommending policies for long-term pension reform. The BAC is also
recommending guidelines for the City to adopt which establish thresholds which if surpassed will
require the City to take prompt and appropriate measures to meet the guideline criteria.
The policies and guidelines address four perspectives : (1) Affordability and Sustainability, (2)
Appropriate Benefits to Provide to Employees, (3) Recruitment and Retention, and (4)
Management of Risk/Risk Sharing.
These policies and guidelines were adopted unanimously by the BAC.
AHordability and Sustainability
• GUIDELINE STATEMENT: If the City's portion of the total annual cost of retirement benefits
contribution exceeds 25 percent of payroll for general employees and 60 percent of
payroll for high risk employees, the City should review and evaluate potential changes to
the collective bargaining agreements between the City and the Unions, applicable
towards the next contract negotiations, in order to identify potential approaches to reduce
the contributions to these levels over the long term .
• POLICY STATEMENT: The City shall fund at least the normal cost of pension. If this
exceeds the amount of the actuarially determined annual required contribution, the excess
should be placed in a pension stabilization fund, to be made available for future pension
shortfalls.
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report-Executive Summary Pageiv
17
• POLICY STATEMENT: The City should strive to maintain a funded ratio of at least 80
percent for each of its defined benefit pension plans.
• GUIDELINE STATEMENT: If the funded ratio (actuarial value of assets minus actuarial
liabilities) of either of the City of Miami Beach's pension plans falls below 70 percent, the
City should strive to implement approaches to increase the funded ratio to that level over
five (5) years.
• POLICY STATEMENT: Salary growth should not exceed the average actuarially assumed
salary growth in each of the City's pension plans.
• POLICY STATEMENT: The City should require 5, 10 and 20-year projections of required
pension contributions as part of the annual actuarial valuations for each of the City's
pension plans. These projections shall be based on the current actuarial assumptions for
each plan. The projections shall be updated to reflect the cost of any proposed benefit
enhancement before the City Commission agrees to the enhancement. The cost of these
studies shall be funded separately from the annual contribution to the pension plan.
• POLICY STATEMENT: There shall be an experience study of each of the City's pension
plan's actuarial assumptions performed by an actuary that is independent from the
pension board. The experience study should be conducted at least once every three (3)
years, to compare actual experience to the assumptions. The independent actuary shall
make recommendations for any changes in assumptions based on the results of the
experience study, and any deviations from those assumptions by the pension board shall
be justified to the City Commission.
• POLICY STATEMENT: Once pension reform is implemented, a 5/7th vote of the City
Commission should be required for any further pension changes.
Appropriate Benefits to Provide to Employees
• POLICY STATEMENT: The City of Miami Beach should strive to provide a retirement
benefit that provides for a replacement of salary at a level at least equivalent to Social
Security plus a supplemental retirement benefit.
• POLICY STATEMENT: The City of Miami Beach retirement benefits should be adjusted
periodically after retirement to reflect the impacts of inflation, with rates no more than the
Consumer Price Index for All Workers -CPI(W) that is subject to City Commission
approval and with a maximum of 3 percent annually.

Recruitment and Retention
• POLICY STATEMENT: The City of Miami Beach should strive to provide retirement benefits
that ensure that the City is competitive in the recruitment and retention of employees.
Management of Risk/Risk Sharing
• POLICY STATEMENT: The City of Miami Beach should strive to share some portion of
retirement benefit risk with employees.
• GUIDELINE STATEMENT: If the City's contribution to a defined pension benefit plan
exceeds 25 percent of payroll for general employees and 60 percent of payroll for high-
risk employees, the employee contribution should be reviewed.

NOTES ON RECOMMENDATION AND REASONS FOR NOT RECOMMENDING OTHER
OPTIONS
OPTION 1: Florida Retirement System (FRS)-The FRS was not recommended because the City's loss
of control of expenses to Tallahassee, ongoing litigation regarding FRS pension changes implemented
in 2011, news of projected shortfalls and payment increases and loss of the premium insurance
payments.
OPTION II: Defined contribution similar to FRS, including a Social Security equivalent-Although this
option eliminates risk, it was not recommended because of concerns with savings potential given the
relatively early ages for retirement eligibility, the impact on morale for existing non-vested employees
and the potential that this may prove to be unattractive to recruit police and fire employees in the
future.
OPTION Ill: Hybrid Plans-We recommend the City adopt a hybrid plan approach in Option IIID2,
and do not recommend the other hybrid plans because although they reduced the risk to the City, they
did not generate the NPV savings of Option IIID2.
OPTION IV: Changes to the Existing Pension Plan -Past Service/Future Service Approach (with a
combined benefit). Changes to the existing pension plan are recommended in regards to vested
employees in order to meet the Policies and Guidelines identified in Section IV. However, they are not
recommended for non-vested and new hire employees because although they can generate the NPV
savings, they do not reduce the City's risk, and risk reduction was a key factor in the BAC's
recommendation.

1. BACKGROUND
MAYOR'S CHARGE
In early 2011, the Mayor approached the City's Budget Advisory Committee (BAC) regarding
undertaking a study of pension reform for the City's pension plans. The "Mayor's Charge" to the
BAC was:
"to develop recommendations that address the benefits and funding concerns
associated with the City's pension plans. While the BAC will examine all retirement
benefits, the focus will be to address the Fire and Police pension system, as this plan
has a significantly greater cost to the City than the General Employees' pension
plan."
More specifically, the requested deliverable work product was,
"to develop a series of written, implementable recommendations that address the
long-term sustainability of the Fire and Police Pension Plan. An explanation of the
recommendations, cost implications, impacts to the City and its employees,
advantages, and disadvantages should be included. Recommendations may be split
into short-term and long-term objectives. Subsequently, the BAC may provide
additional recommendations regarding other pension benefits in the City."
While the direction provided by the Mayor did not have specific dates, the desire was to have the
Committee's recommendations finalized in time for the collective bargaining negotiations with the
City's five unions for the contract period October 1, 2012 through September 30, 2015. Initial
discussions centered on a desired goal of January 2012 for preliminary recommendations.
APPROACH
To accomplish this objective, the BAC developed an approach that included the following
components:
• Develop an understanding of the City's current pension plans benefits and costs for the
Fire and Police Pension Plan and the Miami Beach Employees' Retirement Plan (for
General employees) from the perspective of legal counsel, the City's actuary, the City
Manager and the pension plan administrator for each of the City's pension plans (the Fire
and Police Pension Plan and the Miami Beach Employees' Retirement Plan-MBERP).
• Solicit input from the City's collective bargaining groups and employees.
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report Page 1
26
• Survey comparative jurisdictions in the region regarding pension plan costs and benefits.
• Develop draft policies and guidelines to guide management of the City's pension plans
into the future, (a copy of which is attached for your review).
• Identify and review options of potential changes to the Fire and Police Pension Plan based
on 6 major categories, namely:
o Florida Retirement System (FRS)
o Defined Benefit similar to FRS, including a Social Security equivalent
o Hybrid Plans with both, a defined benefit and a defined contribution component
o Changes to the existing plan with a combination of past service benefits and
benefits earned prospectively
o Freezing the existing plan and defining new benefits based on Florida Statute
Chapter 175 and 185 minimum benefits to continue receiving premium taxes
o Changes to the existing plan to reflect the savings associated with plan changes
included in the 201 0 collective bargaining agreements with the International
Federation of Fire Fighters (IAFF) and the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) that have
not yet been implemented by the Fire and Police Pension Board
• Evaluate the cost impacts of potential options
• Develop Recommendations
TYPES OF PENSION PLANS
A retirement benefit is a form of deferred compensation designed to assist the employer in the
recruitment and retention of public employees and other workforce management goals . It is also
provided to assist employees in preparing for retirement and to compensate individuals for their
years in public service . Broadly speaking, there are two types of retirement plans, ( 1) defined
benefit and (2) defined contribution.
Defined Benefit Plans
With very few exceptions, defined benefit plans provide a retirement benefit that is calculated
using a formula based upon a plan participant's years of service and compensation. Generally,
both employers and participants contribute to these public sector defined benefit plans. All assets
accumulated to fund the retirement benefits are invested by the retirement board or by a central
agency responsible for investing government funds. All investment-related risk is generally borne
by the employer. These plans are predominant in the public sector, and based upon the
Department of labor, Bureau of labor Statistics 1988 data, 90 percent of full-time public sector
employees receive defined benefits.
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report Page 2
27
Principal features of defined benefit plans generally include:
1 . Investment risk born by the plan sponsor;
2. Life expectancy risk born by the plan sponsor;
3. Survivor and disability coverage generally provided;
4. Guaranteed lifetime annuity to members at retirement unless they choose
an alternate payment method;
5. Investments directed by the plan;
6. Generally lower investment costs associated with a defined benefit plan as
compared to other plan designs;
7. More useful tool for employers to attract and retain employees for full
careers and to manage workforce levels; and
8. Guaranteed or ad-hoc cost-of-living adjustments may be provided to
annuitants.
Defined Contribution Plans
Defined contribution plans provide benefits based solely on the assets available in an employee's
individual account, to which both employees and employers may contribute. All employees have
their own accounts set up within the plan to which contributions and investment gains and losses
are recorded. Typically, under a defined contribution plan, employees direct the investment of
their contributions among investment options selected by plan trustees, the employer or the
employer's designated agent, and therefore, fully bear the investment risk. The dollar amount
accumulated in a defined contribution plan will vary depending upon the amount contributed to
the plan, the investment performance, the level of risk taken and the fees paid.
Principal features of defined contribution plans generally include:
1 . Portable vested benefits;
2. Employer obligations fulfilled annually as contributions are made, so there
is no unfunded liability;
3. Investments directed by participants;
4. Account balances at retirement dependent upon a combination of
investment rate of return, contribution levels and the period of investment;
5. Easier to understand account values as participants can see their balance
on a regular basis;
6. Investment risk and fees born by participant;
7. Life expectancy risk born by the participant;
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report
28
Page 3
8. No cost of living allowances after retirement; however, participants
continue to earn investment income on their remaining assets; and
9. Neither disability nor survivor coverage generally provided.
In addition to defined benefit and defined contribution plans, some entities provide retirement
benefits through "hybrid plans" that incorporate features of both defined benefit and defined
contribution plans, thereby reducing (although not eliminating) the risks to the plan sponsor .
For any of these plans, the actual costs to plan sponsors and participants are determined by the
number and amount of benefits actually paid to recipients, and the source and amount of plan
contributions and investment returns.

Actuarial Valuation Reports
Independent actuarial reports are used to determine contribution requirements to a defined benefit
plan by the plan sponsor, in accordance with Florida State Statutes. The valuation reports are
based on various assumptions established by each pension plan Board in consultation with the
pension plan Actuary and Investment Consultant. These assumptions include current wage data,
mortality rates, retirement ages, future salary increases, pension plan expenses and investment
performance assumptions.
The actuarial valuation of the pension plan is a mathematical determination of the financial
condition of the plan, which includes the computation of the present monetary value of benefits
payable to present members, and the present monetary value of future employer and employee
contributions, considering the expected mortality rates among employees and retirees, rates of
disability, retirement age, withdrawal from service, salary increases, investment earnings and
value of assets. In contrast to the market value of the pension plan assets, the actuarial value of
the pension plan assets is equal to the market value of the assets at a specific data, adjusted to
reflect a five-year phase-in (or smoothing) of any asset experience gain or loss. The 5-year
smoothing of pension plan asset value means that only 20% of the experience gain or loss that
the fund experiences in any one year is recognized immediately for the purpose of determining
the actuarial value of the plan and the annual required contribution.
The market value of the plan is the total value of all plan investments as of a given point in time
based on current market value on that date. Both the actuarial and market value of the pension
plan assets are important indicators of the plan's condition. Using the actuarial value
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report Page 4
29
methodology allows the pension plan to spread the annual plan experience over a period of time
(5 years). By doing this, the short-term swings of the market, economic upswings or downturns, or
other near-term factors can be softened over time. The market value methodology for pension
plan assets gives a point-in-time assessment of the plan's assets without any smoothing. This
approach typically results in more volatility in the plan assets as any short-term experience affects
the plan immediately.
As part of the annual actuarial valuation for each plan based on plan data as of October 1, the
Actuary evaluates how the actual data for the preceding year compared to the actuarial valuation for
that year. Any differences are reflected as actuarial gains or losses. The unfunded liability for a plan is
the difference between the value of benefits earned (accrued) and projected future benefits, and the
assets of the plan on a given date, and is typically amortized and funded over 30 years . The
amortization methodology varies by plan.
Actuarial Accrued Uability
The actuarial accrued liability reflects a snapshot at a point in time based on plan benefits and
assumptions. For example, the actuary estimates when members of the plan will retire, how much
they will get paid over their remaining lifetime once retired, and how long they will live, in order
to calculate the total amount that will be paid in the future for plan members. The total value of
these benefits is then "present valued" to current dollars .
As a result, the investment rate of return is significant as this affects the calculation of present
value of the plan benefits, i.e. how much the plan should have on hand today, which together
with investment earnings (the investment rate of return), should be sufficient to fund the plan in the
future.
Each year, experience "gains" in the prior year reduces the actuarial accrued liability. Examples
of experience gains would be investment earnings for the prior year in excess of plan
assumptions, employees retiring later than assumed, salary growth less than assumed, etc.
Experience "losses" for the prior year, conversely, increase the actuarial accrued liability.
Changes to plan benefits can also affect the actuarial accrued liability of a plan, either positively
or negatively. If plan benefits are increased, the mathematical calculations will result in more
benefits anticipated to be paid to plan members in the future, which must be recognized at the
time of the increase, although payments would be amortized over the long term. Conversely, if
plan benefits are reduced, all else being equal, the plan will see a reduction in the actuarial
accrued liability.
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report Page 5
30
Rate of Return of lnveshnents and Asset Value
The annual plan valuation is based on actuarial value of assets rather than market value. As
noted earlier, actuarial value uses a 5-year smoothing approach. The intent of the smoothing is to
mitigate the impact of significant annual changes in actual investment returns.
Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Uability
The unfunded liability of the plan is the actuarial accrued liability less the actuarial value of plan assets.
This amount is expected to have year-by-year Auctuations; however, if the plan's assumptions are
consistent with the plans long-term experience, the changes in the unfunded liability should be offsetting
over the life of the plan.
The percent of the actuarial accrued liability funded (funded ratio} is a measure of a pension fund's
fiscal health. It compares assets to pension obligations. A percentage over 100% means the fund has
more money than it needs to meet its obligations at that point in time. A funded ration of 80% or
greater (actuarial value of assets divided by actuarial accrued liability} is generally considered a sign
of an adequately funded plan.
OVERVIEW OF MIAMI BEACH PENSION PLANS
The Fire and Police Pension Plan provides defined pension benefits to police officers and fire
fighters, while the MBERP provides defined pension benefits for almost all other full-time
employees. Approximately 50 current employees participate in a defined contribution 401 Plan
that is no longer offered to new employees.
The Fire and Police Pension Fund was formerly known as the City Pension Fund for Firemen and
Policemen -City of Miami Beach and City Supplemental Pension Fund for Fire Fighters and Police
Officers-City of Miami Beach. The former plans were merged and the name changed to City
Pension Fund for Fire Fighters and Police Officers in the City of Miami Beach. The defined benefit
plan covers substantially all police officers and firefighters of the City of Miami Beach.
The earliest origin of a retirement program for the City of Miami Beach was the Retirement System
for General Employees created under and by authority of Chapter 18691, laws of Florida, Acts
in 1937. The Retirement System for Unclassified Employees and Elected Officials was created in
1988. In March 2006, the Retirement System for General Employees and the Retirement System
for Unclassified Employees and Elected Officials merged to form the Miami Beach Employees'
Retirement Plan (Ord . 2006-3530}.

RECENT EVENTS DRIVING PENSION PLAN COSTS -CMB INVESTMENT RETURNS
AND SALARY GROWTH
In the Fire and Police Pension Plan, key drivers of the recent increases in unfunded liability have been
salary growth in excess of assumptions and investment returns below assumed rates, due to one of the
worst decades of investment returns in recent history. Also, we have also reached and surpassed an
inflection point where the number of Fire and Police retirees exceeds the number of active employees.
The following tables and graphs reflect the assumed and actuarial rate of return for each of the
two plans as well as the assumed and actual salary growth for each of the two plans. In any year
where the actuarial rate of return exceeded the assumed rate of return for the plan year, this
would have resulted in a decrease in the actuarial accrued liability, all else being equal.
Conversely, in any year where the actual rate of return was less than the assumed rate of return
for the plan, this would have resulted in an increase in the actuarial accrued liability, all else
being equal.
Both plans demonstrated strong investment returns well in excess of assumed rates, prior to 2001 .
However, rates of return post 2001, and particularly since 2008, have been below assumed
rates, thereby helping to drive increases in unfunded liabilities and annual contribution
requirements over that time period. Further, while MBERP salary growth has generally been in
line with the assumed salary growth rate, Fire and Police Plan salary growth has almost
consistently exceeded salary growth assumptions for the base plan, especially considering the fact
that the salary basis for retirement benefits is the average of the last two years' salary, including
incentive pays, longevity pays and approximately 11% of overtime that can be counted as
pensionable pay.

In 2011, the Florida legislature mandated that the Florida Department of Management Services
develop a plan to create a rating system for use in classifying the financial strength of all local
government pension plans. As part of the recommendations contained in the report, the
Department recommended the following percentage point system components (in conjunction with
other components totaling to 1 00 percent) to evaluate the financial sustainability of a plan, for
each component deriving a ratio by comparing the 5 year average of actual experience to the
plan assumption, thereby emphasizing the importance of these assumptions.
Rate of Return Ratio Salary Growth Ratio
GT 1.0 5% LT 1.0 5%
0.75-0.99 3% 1.01 -1.33 3%
0.54-0.74 1% 1.34-1.66 1%
LT 0.50 0% GT 1.67 0%
RECENT CHANGES IN INVESTMENT RETURN ASSUMPTIONS IN OTHER PLANS
Investment rates of return for the past decade have been essentially flat, resulting in the
examination of the assumed rate of return for defined benefit pension plans, across several
pension plans. The rate of return adopted and assumed by a pension board is a critical
component to the actuarial calculations of payments and liabilities. If the assumed rate is higher
than the actual rate, then the plan will require additional funds and the liability will increase. The
rate of return adopted by the city's plans as of the 10/1/10 valuation reports were 8.2 percent
for the Fire and Police Pension Plan and 8.25 percent for MBERP.
California (CaiPERS)
The California Public Employees' Retirement System (CaiPERS) manages retirement benefits for
more than 1.6 million California public employees, retirees, and their families. As of June 30,
201 1, CaiPERS provided pension benefits to 1,1 03,426 active and inactive members and
536,234 retirees, beneficiaries, and survivors. CaiPERS membership is divided approximately in
thirds among current and retired employees of the state, schools, and participating public
agencies. CaiPERS is a defined benefit retirement plan. It provides benefits based on a member's
years of service, age, and highest average compensation. In addition, benefits are provided for
disability and death, with payments in some cases going to survivors or beneficiaries of eligible
members. Approximately half of their members pay into Social Security. CaiPERS manages health
benefits for more than 1 .3 million members and their families
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report Page 12
37
In March 2012, the Staff administration recommended to reduce the discount rate for CaiPERS
from 7.75 percent to 7.5 percent, even though this is projected to require an additional $303
million per year in pension fund contributions .

Local Florida Government Pension Plans
The Florida Division of Retirement, a Division of the Florida Department of Management Services,
is responsible for reviewing and commenting on actuarial valuations, impact statements and
reports submitted by local governments, special districts and schools boards, as well as,
determining if actuarial reports are timely, complete, and accurate and are based on reasonable
assumptions. This is in addition to other responsibilities including; publishing the "Local
Government Retirement Systems Annual Report," maintaining computerized data information of all
public employee retirement systems in Florida, cooperating with local retirement systems on areas
of mutual concerns and publishing fact sheets on each local government's defined benefit plan.
As part of the recommendations contained in the Financial Rating of Local Government Defined
Benefit Pension Plans Report prepared by the Florida Department of Management Services, the
Department has recommended that the Legislature establish a standard rate after having
evaluated the issue with feedback from interested parties. Further, the report noted that, as of
September 30, 2011, the average (mean) rate of return assumption for local government pension
plans in Florida is 7.78 percent and the median rate of return assumption is 8 percent. (Source:
Financial Rating of Local Government Defined Benefit Pension Plans, Department of Management
Services, January 25, 2012.
In the meantime, given the poor investment return experience in recent years, the Florida Division
of Management Services is already cautioning the local government pension plans regarding
their assumed rate of return, as shown in the except below regarding the MBERP 10/1/2010
valuation.
(2) Valuation Interest Assumption: The 10/1/2010 va.luation uses an 8.25% interes~ assumption to
discount Plan liabilities . Plan annualized investment ·returns thr9 ugh 10/1/2010 were 3.75%, 6.14%
and 5.58% per annum over the last three, five and eleven plan year periods respectively ending
on 10/1/2010. We will continue to monitor these results infuture reports.

The Total Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability (UAAl) of City pension plans as of 10/1/10 was
$441 million:
Fire/Police:
General:
$291.9 million
$148.8 million
By law, the City is responsible for funding the UAAl-even if employees are transferred to other
employers, and even if the current pension plans are closed, frozen or terminated. However, this
also means that the combined assets of the plan today are almost $1 billion.

GRADE PERCENT FUNDED
A More than 90% funded
B 80 to 90% funded
c 70 to 80% funded
D 60 to 70% funded
F Less than 60% funded
Based on this grading approach, the Fire and Police Pension Plan would receive a D rating while
MBERP would receive a C rating as of 10/1/11.
CMB BUDGET IMPACTS
The total adopted General Fund Operating Budget is $244,336,740. Of note, the FY 2011/12
General Fund budget is only about $6.6 million (less than 3 percent) over the FY 2006/07
budget and the operating millage is 1 .2085 mills less than the FY 2006/07 budget despite
pension increases of $24 million during that same period. At this point, pension costs alone
represent $52.4 million (21 percent) of the total General Fund budget, with the Fire and Police
Pension Plan representing approximately 16 percent and the MBERP representing approximately
5 percent.
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report Page 15

The FY 2011/12 City contribution for the Fire and Police Pension Plan is $36.2 million (72.76%
of Fire and Police Pension Plan members' payroll). The FY 2011/12 City contribution for the
General Plan is $17.1 million (25.02% of MBERP members payroll), following collectively
bargained benefit adjustments in 2010. Of note, while City contributions for the Fire and Police
Plan are more than twice that of the General Plan, employee contributions for each are $7 million
and $5 million, respectively.
As part of the recommendations contained in the Financial Rating of local Government Defined
Benefit Pension Plans Report prepared by the Florida Department of Management Services, the
Department recommended the following percentage point system components (in conjunction with
other components totaling to 1 00%) to evaluate the financial sustainability of a plan, for each
component deriving a ratio by comparing the sponsor contributions as a percent of the valuation
payroll.
Percentage of Valuation Payroll
LT 10% 5%
10-19.99% 3%
20-39.99% 1%

Based on this grading approach, the Fire and Police Pension Plan would receive Zero percentage
points while MBERP would receive a 1-percentage point.

2. RECENT CHANGES TO PUBLIC PENSION PLANS
CITY OF MIAMI BEACH
The collective bargaining agreements entered into by the five bargaining units in the City of
Miami Beach in 2010, included a series of changes to the both the Fire and Police Pension Plan
and the Miami Beach Employees' Retirement Plan (MBERP). These changes are outlined below.
Changes to the Fire and Police Pension Plan
• All Employees
• No retiree cost of living adjustment (COLA) for at least 2 years for
participants entering the deferred retirement option plan (DROP) after
9/1/12 (Years 3 and 4 of DROP)
• Off-duty compensation pensionable/sick leave sell back up to the overtime
compensation cap
• New Employees Only
• Minimum retirement Age of 48 for Rule of 70
• Pushed back increase in multiplier from 3% to 4% so that it occurs in year
20 instead of year 15
• Final Average Monthly Earning (FAME) increased from highest or last 2 to
highest or last 3 years
• Retire COLA decreased from 2.5% to 1.5%
The impacts estimated by Buck Consultants, the actuary for the Fire and Police Pension Plan for
changes for existing Fire and Police Pension Plan employees were minimal, with an initial cost
increase of $368,865 included in the actuarial impact statement, to be offset in the future by a
savings of approximately $651,322. At this time, these changes have not been implemented
pending litigation. The savings estimated by Actuarial Concepts Inc., the City's actuary, from
these changes for new Fire and Police Pension Plan employees generates a Net Present Value of
$32.8 million over 30 years; however, savings in the early years were minimal.
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report Page 17
42
Changes to MBERP
• Pension changes for all employees:
• Increase employee pension contribution by 2%
• 5 year final averaging period (phased in)
• Additional reduced pension benefits for employees hired after 10/1 /10:
• Increased normal retirement age
• Reduced multiplier from 3% to 2.5%
• Reduced retiree COLA from 2 .5% to 1.5%
The savings estimated by Gabriel Roeder Smith and Company (GRS}, the actuary for MBERP,
based on the changes to existing MBERP employees was $3.3 million in year one. The impact of
the changes to new MBERP employees was estimated as $900,000 in the first year, and
approximately $6 million per year after 1 0 years.

California (20 12)
(Source Associated Press, March 13, 201 2)
In March 2012, Governor Brown proposed changes for public employee pension benefits in
California with the aim to replace about 75 percent of an employee's salary through retirement
funds and Social Security for employees with at least 30 years of service. The proposed changes
were estimated to save about $900 million annually. The proposed changes included:
• Raising the retirement age to 67 for new employees who are not public safety workers
• Requiring state and local workers to pay more toward their retirement
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report Page 21

Creating a mandatory "hybrid" system in which future employees would get retirement
from a guaranteed benefit and a 401 (k) style plan
• Eliminating "spiking" (boosting payouts by including overtime and other benefits) and "air
time" (buying additional service credits)
• Mandating that that public employees pay an equal share of pension costs
New York (20 12)
(Source: msnbc.com staff and news services, March 30 2012, 8:14AM)
In March 2012, changes for New York retirement benefits were approved by the legislature
affecting future workers and reducing costs by approximately $80 billion over 30 years. The
reform included the following changes among other measure:
• Increases the amount higher-earning public employees contribute toward their retirement plans
• Raises the retirement age by a year to 63

In the 1980s, Galveston, Texas pulled its employees out of Social Security and set up an alternate
plan based on individual accounts. This plan has generated higher returns and benefits than
Social Security.

Premium Taxes/Share Plans
Chapters 175 & 185, F.S. provide for a rebate of the state excise tax on property and casualty
insurance premiums to cities with police and firefighter pension plans, known as "premium taxes".
The premium tax monies must be used exclusively for firefighter and police pensions, and the
local pension plan must comply with the requirements of Ch. 175 & 185. Premium taxes
received in excess of the "frozen amount" must be used for extra benefits.
In 2010 the City received a total of $3 million in premium tax revenues-about 3.87% of payroll,
(approximately $2.4 million in Chapter 175 premium taxes for firefighters and approximately
$525,000 in Chapter 185 premium taxes for police officers.
The City is able to use $120,000 of the premium tax money received each year to offset the
City's contributions to the pension plan. This is the "frozen amount." The rest of the premium tax
money-$2.8 million last year-went to "share plans" for fire fighters and police officers.
A "Share plan" is a defined contribution plan with individual accounts where a proportionate
share of the premium tax proceeds based on tenure are deposited each year. The fire and police
share plans provide a lump sum payout to retiring firefighters and police officers on top of their
City pension benefit-this is an extra benefit. Typical benefits for those members who had the
most years of service are $100,000 for fire fighters and $60,000 for police officers.
Under current law and State non-rule policy, the "City" will lose premium tax monies if:
The current plan is closed or terminated; or
• The City joins FRS; or
• Benefits are reduced below Ch. 175/185 minimums
Also, any increase in employee contributions for police officers and firefighters under Chapter
175/185 must be agreed to by the police and fire unions. Any transfer of premium tax monies
for the police and fire share plans to the City pension fund to reduce the City's required
contributions must also be agreed to by the unions.
(Reminder: only $120,000 is used to offset cost of the City's defined benefit plan for Police and
Fire; while the balance of $1.9 million annually goes to share plans).
Summary of Changes in Benefits
Both, the Fire and Police Pension Plan and the Miami Beach Employees' Retirement Plan have
evolved in Benefit changes over the years and details of these changes are provided in the
Appendix.
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report Page 24

In the Fire and Police Pension Plan, there are currently 34 members who were hired prior to
October 1, 1989 (when the Plan's benefits were generally lower than they are today) who have
not joined the Deferred Retirement Option Program (DROP). In 1989, the Supplemental Plan was
introduced for Miami Beach Fire Fighters and Police Officers. This plan provided for benefits
above the levels in the original Base Plan. For example, the multiplier of 2.5 percent for the first
25 years and 2 percent thereafter was modified to 3 percent for the first 15 years and 4 percent
thereafter. In addition, benefit increases were also made to the retiree COLA, the maximum final
average monthly earnings as a percent of salary, disability, beneficiary supplements and buyback
of military time. However, at the same time, employee contributions were increased to 10
percent.
In 1993, some of the benefits were reduced for new employees. For example, the multiplier was
reduced to 3 percent for all years and there was a reduction in the retiree COLA. However, the
employee contribution was maintained at 1 0 percent . There are currently 15 active members
hired between October 1, 1989 and May 19, 1993, which have not joined the DROP.
In 2000, the Base Plan and Supplemental Plan were merged and most benefits were returned to
the 1989 levels for all employees. In addition, the retirement age benefit was changed to age 50
or the Rule of 70 and in 2009, a DROP benefit and a buyback provision were added.

Summary of Changes in Benefits
As noted previously, the details of benefit changes to the Miami Beach Employees' Retirement
Plan over the years are provided in the Appendix.
Between 1988 and 2006, the General Plan (Classified employees) and the Unclassified Plan were
separate. The Unclassified Plan generally provided for higher benefits; however, required
a higher member contribution. For example, the Unclassified Plan provided for a 4 percent
multiplier, a normal retirement of age 50 with 5 years of service, 90 percent maximum pension
benefit and a member contribution of 10 percent. The General Plan provided for a 2.75
multiplier for the first 25 years and 2 percent thereafter, a normal retirement age between 55 and
60 (depending on years of service), an 80 percent maximum pension benefit and a 6 percent
member contribution.
In the early 1990's both plans bifurcated, providing for different benefits in each of the plans for
all new members. Upon implementation, the current active members of the General Plan
(Classified employees) generally received higher benefits, while newly hired members of the
General Plan received benefits that were similar to the newly hired members in the Unclassified
Plan. In the Unclassified Plan, benefit levels for both, existing and new members were generally
reduced.
In 2006, the two plans were merged to create the Miami Beach Employees' Retirement Plan
(MBERP) and some benefits were increased, for example:
• Retiree COLA was increased from 1.5% simple to 2.5% compounding for all
members
• Retirement age became 50 with 5 years of creditable service for pre-bifurcation
members (Unclassified employees received pre-bifurcation date benefits and
Classified employees experienced increased benefits)
• Retirement age was decreased for post-bifurcation members from 60 to 55
• Member contributions were reduced to 8 percent for post-bifurcation members
Further reductions were implemented in 2010 for both, existing and new MBERP members, as
presented in the prior section.

4. RECOMMENDATIONS
Through a series of meetings over the past 12 months, the Budget Advisory Committee (BAC)
evaluated the options under consideration for changes to the Fire and Police Pension Plan over the
course of several meetings.
BAC MOTION RECOMMENDING PENSION REFORM
On April 17, 2012, the BAC approved a motion for Fire and Police Plan pension reform
combining a number of prior individual motions. The combined motion includes the following
motion and vote counts for pension reform for the Fire and Police Pension Plan:
• Recommending Options 11102 for new and non-vested Fire and Police Pension Plan
employees shown in the table on the following page.
Note: this portion of the motion was initially adopted as a separate motion by a 7-2 vote
of the BAC.
• Recommending that the City negotiate changes for vested Fire and Police Pension Plan
employees to achieve thresholds in the policies and guidelines adopted by the BAC (see
Section 4 on Policies and Guidelines).
Note: this portion of the motion was initially adopted as a separate motion by unanimous
vote of the BAC.
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report Page 31
56
HYBRID OPTION IIID2 FOR NEW AND NON-VESTED EMPLOYEES
Provide a defined benefit component for Police and Fire non-vested and new hire employees to
equal the minimum benefits to receive Premium Taxes from the State as defined by F.S .
Chapter175/185 and a defined contribution component of 11 percent funded by the City (with
employees providing a matching 5% contribution).

*Provided that the City Commission may periodically adjust the COlA up to 1 .5% compounded
for a given year, and COLA resets to 0% for the following year unless the City Commission
affirmatively votes to increase above 0% for the next fiscal year
** This represents a minimum consistent with F.S. 175/185 but the defined benefit employee
contribution can be set at any level
Note Premium tax revenues for Fire and Police Plans ore expected to continue .
This results in reduction of pension benefits as a percentage of payroll to 21% over 30 years and
a net present value (NPV) savings of $7 4 million over 30 years. In addition, year 1 savings are
estimated at $2.5 million.
While the savings can be achieved by other means, the reduction of risk through a hybrid plan is
the key benefit to the City. The City will retain risk on the defined benefit portion of the pension;
however, will have no risk on the defined contribution portion. In this regard, th e City's risk is
reduced by 40-50 percent. The employees will have a new risk associated with the defined
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report Page 32
57
contribution portions of this plan; however, (1) this is a risk of investment that a majority of the
public faces (i.e., nearly all private sector employees have defined contribution plans), and (2)
along with the risk comes the reward as well to the extent that the employee invests wisely. The
reward potential exceeds the reward potential under the current defined benefit plan.
NOTES ON RECOMMENDATION AND REASONS FOR NOT RECOMMENDING
OTHER OPTIONS
OPTION 1: Florida Retirement System (FRS)-The FRS was not recommended because the City's
loss of control of expenses to Tallahassee, ongoing litigation regarding FRS pension changes
implemented in 201 1, news of projected shortfalls and payment increases and loss of the
premium insurance payments.
OPTION II: Defined contribution similar to FRS, including a Social Security equivalent-Although
this option eliminates risk, it was not recommended because of concerns with savings potential
given the relatively early ages for retirement eligibility, the impact on morale for existing non-
vested employees and the potential that this may prove to be unattractive to recruit police and fire
employees in the future .
OPTION Ill: Hybrid Plans -We recommend the City adopt a hybrid plan approach in Option
11102, and do not recommend the other hybrid plans because although they reduced the risk to the
City, they did not generate the NPV savings of Option 11102.
OPTION IV: Changes to the Existing Pension Plan -Past Service/Future Service Approach {with
a combined benefit). Changes to the existing pension plan are recommended in regards to
vested employees in order to meet the Policies and Guidelines identified in Section IV. However,
they are not recommended for non-vested and new hire employees because although they can
generate the NPV savings, they do not reduce the City's risk, and risk reduction was a key factor
in the BAC's recommendation.
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report Page 33
58
5. FACTORS FOR CONSIDERATION
In developing recommendations for pension reform, several factors need to be taken into account.
FINANCIAL AFFORDABILITY AND SUSTAINABILITY OF THE PLAN VS. PROVIDING
APPROPRIATE BENEFITS AND ENSURING COMPETITIVENESS
Financial stability and affordability, including the ability to reduce risk or share the risk with
employees, is often contrary to providing appropriate benefits for employees and ensuring that
these benefits are competitive with other jurisdictions in order to ensure that the City has the
ability to recruit highly qualified employees.
This trade-off was considered in developing recommended policies and guidelines as discussed in
the following section and in evaluating pension reform alternatives.
In addition, it is important to note that City of Miami Beach employees do not participate in Social
Security, a factor that should be taken into account when evaluating benefits received.
UNFUNDED LIABILITY-NO INSTANT FIX
Under all scenarios, the City retains responsibility for funding the unfunded accrued actuarial
liability (UAAL) of the plan. The UML is typically amortized over a period of up to 30 years and
is only reduced (although usually not eliminated) through actuarial gains or benefit reductions.
Therefore, under most scenarios, it will take at least 30 years to eliminate the current unfunded
liability even while maintaining the assumption that there will be no further increases due to
experience losses or assumption changes.
In the City of Miami Beach Pension Plans, the payment for the UML each year amounts to
approximately half of the City's annual required contribution. Therefore, in the short term, the
ability to reduce costs is significantly limited.
HOW MUCH RISK IS THE CITY WILLING TO TAKE?
Risk in defined benefit pension plans results from the volatility of investment markets which impacts
the City's required contribution rates. The City's risk can be reduced by:
• Sharing risk with employees -For example, increasing employee contribution rates in
some relationship to increases in City contribution rates.
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report Page 34
59
Adopting a more conservative investment policy and reducing the associated assumed
rate of return-However, this typically increases costs significantly in the short term.
Converting a portion, or all, of the defined benefit plan to a defined contribution plan,
because the defined contribution plan specifies the City's risk-free contribution rate, and
the employees then assume the risk of their investments.
LEGAL GUIDELINES
(Source: Lewis Longman and Walker, P.A.)
The following are legal guidelines that must be taken into account when considering potential
pension reform:
• Changes in retirement benefits and employee contributions are mandatory subjects of
collective bargaining. As a result, any recommendations by the BAC must be bargained .
Accrued pension benefits (benefits earned in the past) cannot be reduced or taken away.
However, future benefits can be reduced for current employees who have not reached
retirement status.
The City is ultimately responsible for unfunded pension liabilities .
What are Options to Reduce City Pension Costs?
The options to reduce costs are as follows, each of which are discussed in the following section:
• Terminate, freeze or close current pension plan (see definitions below), and set up a lower
cost plan/benefit such as:
• Florida Retirement System (FRS)
Defined contribution plan
Hybrid Plan
• Keep current City pension plan, but:
• Reduce benefits for new and/ or current employees
• Increase employee contributions
11Ciose" -existing plan is closed to new members; current members stay in existing plan and will
continue to accrue benefits, until they retire or leave the City; future employees join new plan.
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report Page 35
60
11free:z:e" -accrued benefits of current employees in existing plan are "frozen" and paid out at
retirement; all current and future employees join a new plan, or continue in current plan with
reduced benefits.
11Terminate" -existing plan liquidated; accrued benefits paid out to plan members; City
responsible for any deficit; all current and future employees join new plan.
20 11 State Legislation
2011 SB 1 128, revised the definition of pensionable compensation to exclude overtime pay in
excess of 300 hours (and allows plans to exclude all overtime pay), and exclude payouts for
accrued sick and annual leave. These changes must be implemented with the first collective
bargaining agreement implemented after 7/1/11.
EMPLOYEE GROUPS IMPACTED
There are three groups of employees to consider when considering impacts -vested employees
(having worked at least 1 0 years), non-vested employees (having worked less than 1 0 years) and
new hires. Under the options evaluated, the impacts on the three groups of employees depend on
the following scenarios:
1. Reduce benefits for new hires only
• Reduces cost over time
Current employees (vested and non-vested) keep current benefits
No immediate savings -may take many years to achieve cost savings -savings are
achieved only as new staff are hired
• Creates lower level of benefits for new hires
• New hires can be expected to eventually press for benefits similar to longer tenured
employees
Note: The City implemented a number of pension changes to the General Plan in 201 0.
Modifications for the Fire and Police Pension Plan are pending implementation, subject to
litigation .
2 . Reduce benefits for new hires and non-vested employees
• Reduced cost over time
• Some reductions to UAAL
• Vested employees keep current benefits
Some immediate savings -may take many years to achieve cost savings -immediate
savings as applied to non -vested -savings for new staff are achieved only as they are
hired
Creates lower level of benefits for new hires and non-vested employees
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report Page 36

• New hires and non-vested employees can be expected to eventually press for benefits
similar to longer tenured employees
3. Reduce benefits for all employees (excluding those employees who have reached normal
retirement age).
• Immediate cost savings
• Reduces UAAL
Same benefits for all employees going forward
• Reduces future benefits for current employees (employees keep what they have already
earned)
• Loss of premium tax revenues if Fire and Police Plan benefits are reduced below Chapter
175/185 minimums
Note: The City implemented a two percent increase in employee pension contributions and
increased the averaging period from three years to five years for all members of General Plan in
2010. Changes agreed to for the Fire and Police Pension Plan for existing employees were
minimal and are pending implementation subject to litigation.

6. RECOMMENDED POLICIES AND GUIDELINES
The Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) recommends that state and local
governments have a policy statement that will guide their on-going plan design decisions. This
policy should encourage governments to provide sustainable and properly funded retirement
plans, which will attract employees in a competitive labor market, facilitate effective
management of the workforce and fulfill retirement needs.
In developing a policy for retirement plan design, a state or local government should consider
the following:
• Purpose of the retirement plan (e.g., level of replacement income and purchasing
power retention);
• Ability of public retirees to contribute to the economic viability of their community
and not become a financial liability to the community in which they live due to
inadequate retirement income;
• Organization's philosophy regarding employer and employee responsibilities in
preparing for retirement;
• Availability of Social Security, retiree medical benefits, disability and survivor
benefits and supplemental (e.g. 457) savings plans;
• Costs, including the employer's ability to sustain payments and perhaps increase
benefits over time and cost predictability;
• Labor market considerations such as competitive environment, workforce mobility,
length of employee service and recruitment and retention of employees;
• Investment risk and control, including how investment risk is allocated between
employer and employee;
• Portability of benefits;
• A plan design that can be communicated to and understood by plan participants;
• Employee educational efforts; and
• Advantages of the different types of plans (e.g., defined benefit, defined
contribution and hybrid).

CITY OF MIAMI BEACH RECOMMENDED POUCIES AND GUIDEUNES
As part of the evaluation for Pension Reform in the City of Miami Beach, the Budget Advisory
Committee (BAC} is recommending policies for long term pension reform. The BAC is also
recommending guidelines for the City to adopt which establish thresholds which if surpassed will
require the City to take prompt and appropriate measures to meet the guideline criteria.
The policies and guidelines address four perspectives: ( 1) Affordability and Sustainability, (2)
Appropriate Benefits to Provide to Employees, (3) Recruitment and Retention, and (4)
Management of Risk/Risk Sharing.
These policies and guidelines were adopted unanimously by the BAC.
AHordability and Sustainability
• GUIDELINE STATEMENT: If the City's portion of the total annual cost of retirement benefits
contribution exceeds 25 percent of payroll for general employees and 60 percent of
payroll for high risk employees, the City should review and evaluate potential changes to
the collective bargaining agreements between the City and the Unions, applicable
towards the next contract negotiations, in order to identify potential approaches to reduce
the contributions to these levels over the long term.
• POLICY STATEMENT: The City shall fund at least the normal cost of pension. If this
exceeds the amount of the actuarially determined annual required contribution, the excess
should be placed in a pension stabilization fund, to be made available for future pension
shortfalls.
• POLICY STATEMENT: The City should strive to maintain a funded ratio of at least 80
percent for each of its defined benefit pension plans.
• GUIDELINE STATEMENT: If the funded ratio {actuarial value of assets minus actuarial
liabilities) of either of the City of Miami Beach's pension plans falls below 70 percent, the
City should strive to implement approaches to increase the funded ratio to that level over
five (5) years.
• POLICY STATEMENT: Salary growth should not exceed the average actuarially assumed
salary growth in each of the City's pension plans.
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report Page 39
64
• POliCY STATEMENT: The City should require 5, 10 and 20 year projections of required
pension contributions as part of the annual actuarial valuations for each of the City's
pension plans. These projections shall be based on the current actuarial assumptions for
each plan. The projections shall be updated to reflect the cost of any proposed benefit
enhancement before the City Commission agrees to the enhancement. The cost of these
studies shall be funded separately from the annual contribution to the pension plan.
• POliCY STATEMENT: There shall be an experience study of each of the City's pension
plan's actuarial assumptions performed by an actuary that is independent from the
pension board. The experience study should be conducted at least once every three (3)
years, to compare actual experience to the assumptions. The independent actuary shall
make recommendations for any changes in assumptions based on the results of the
experience study, and any deviations from those assumptions by the pension board shall
be justified to the City Commission.
• POliCY STATEMENT: Once pension reform is implemented, a 5/7th vote of the City
Commission should be required for any further pension changes .
Appropriate Benefits to Provide to Employees
• POliCY STATEMENT: The City of Miami Beach should strive to provide a retirement
benefit that provides for a replacement of salary at a level at least equivalent to Social
Security plus a supplemental retirement benefit.
• POliCY STATEMENT: The City of Miami Beach retirement benefits should be adjusted
periodically after retirement to reflect the impacts of inflation, with rates no more than the
Consumer Price Index for All Workers -CPI(W), that is subject to City Commission
approval and with a maximum of 3 percent annually.
Recruitment and Retention
• POliCY STATEMENT: The City of Miami Beach should strive to provide retirement benefits
that ensure that the City is competitive in the recruitment and retention of employees.
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report Page 40
65
Management of Risk/Risk Sharing
• POLICY STATEMENT: The City of Miami Beach should strive to share some portion of
retirement benefit risk with employees.
• GUIDELINE STATEMENT: If the City's contribution to a defined pension benefit plan
exceeds 25 percent of payroll for general employees and 60 percent of payroll for high
risk employees, the employee contribution should be reviewed.

7. OPTIONS EVALUATED
Based upon the direction of the Mayor's Charge, as well as the condition of both plans, the
Budget Advisory Committee (BAC) focused on recommending changes to the Fire and Police
Pension Plan. Below are specifics on each of the options evaluated for the Fire and Police Pension
Plan, including a table summarizing the results of the projected cost impact of each. Each of
these options was evaluated on a macro level, as well as on a micro level, as to their impacts on
the three aforementioned employee groups (i.e., vested, non-vested and new hire employees).
The options that changed retirement benefits from the current plan to another plan were evaluated
for new employees and for new and non-vested employees. These options include converting to
the Florida Retirement System (FRS), converting to a defined contribution plan and converting to a
hybrid plan.
The options that evaluated changes in benefits for under the current defined benefit plan were
evaluated for new employees and for all employees that have not yet reached normal retirement
age.
Legal note: City of Miami Beach employees who join the Miami Beach pension plan sign
individual contracts, which state that the benefits cannot be reduced. Whether these contracts
would prevail over changes implemented through the collective bargaining process is a potential
legal issue that would likely result in litigation. A recommended approach to implement this
option is to incentivize existing employees to voluntarily sign new contracts by offering them
alternative reductions in other items not governed by the individual pension contract (e.g. salary
and/or non -pension benefits).
I. FRS + Social Security
Issues to Consider:
Reduced cost over time (FRS rates likely going up)
Favorable employee contribution rate (FRS contribution is 3%)
• City must join Social Security as a condition of joining FRS
• Standardized FRS benefits
• Portability -easier for City to attract employees from other FRS agencies (but also
easier for other FRS agencies to hire employees away)
City still must pay off current plan liabilities and may have to shorten amortization
period, thereby increasing cost in the short-term
• Lose premium tax revenues immediately
• State legislature sets benefits and contributions (i.e., City loses control of benefits and
contributions)
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report Page 42
67
Legal note : The FRS statute requires that when a city joins FRS, all active members of the
city pension plan be given an opportunity to individually elect to join FRS or continue
participating in the city plan. The city would not be able to force non-vested employees to
join FRS. It is possible to achieve this result by freezing benefits under the city plan for
non-vested employees before joining FRS, but this could lead to Social Security issues.
These issues are probably resolvable, but would be complicated to work out. The
recommended approach to implement this option is to join FRS for new hires, while
providing current employees with the option to elect either to stay in the city plan or to join
FRS. Future benefit accruals under the city plan could be reduced to encourage more
current employees to move to FRS.
The BAC requested that this option be evaluated separately based on the option being
applied to :
A New employees, and
B. Non-vested existing employees

Page 43
Results:
This option results in a normal cost equivalent to approximately 25 percent of projected
payroll, with a net present value of savings of approximately $22 million for only new
employees and approximately $51 million for both, new and non-vested employees over
the next 30 years.
II. Defined Contribution + Social Security equivalent contribution
This option eliminates the City's risk for any future benefits earned. The option could be
implemented by participating in social security and having an additional defined
contribution component, that together total to 24 percent as explained below; or by a
defined contribution of 24 percent.
Issues to Consider:
Predictable employer costs-this is the standard pension in the private sector.
• City does not bear investment risk -however, employees bear all risk, a particular
concern since if the City does not participate in Social Security under this option
• Appeals to younger, mobile employees
• Portability -defined contribution account balance may be "rolled over" to an IRA or
other retirement plan with another employer
• lower administrative costs
• No actuarial liabilities-Employees bear investment risk and reward
• Possible that defined contribution benefits will run out while employee is still alive
No inflation protection (Retiree COLA)
loss of premium tax revenues for Fire and Police Plans
Investment costs are higher for individual employees than for a pension plan
• Benefit would have to exceed Social Security to be competitive
The amount of the City's annual required contribution would be equivalent to the FRS
amount of 17 percent employer contribution for the FRS investment plan for high risk
employees, plus an additional seven (7) percent for a Social Security equivalent, thus
representing a total employer contribution of 24 percent, along with an employee
contribution of three (3) percent plus a Social Security equivalent of approximately six (6)
percent, for a total employee contribution of nine (9) percent.
The BAC requested that this option be evaluated separately based on the option being
applied to:
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report Page 44
69
A. New employees, and
B. Non-vested existing employees
Results:
This option is designed to be similar in cost to FRS and thus results in a normal cost
equivalent to approximately 25 percent of projected payroll, with a net present value of
savings of approximately $22 million for only new employees and approximately $51
million for both, new and non-vested employees over the next 30 years.
Ill. Hybrid Plans
These options reduce but do not fully eliminate the City's risk for any future benefits
earned.
Issues to Consider:
• Reduced cost over time
• Sharing of risk between City and employees
• Defined benefit base plan-guaranteed benefit
• Defined contribution plan on top of defined benefit plan
• Continuation of premium tax revenues for Fire and Police Plans, if requirements of F.S.
175 and 185 are met
The BAC requested that this option be evaluated separately based on the option being
applied to:
1 . New employees, and
2. Non-vested existing employees
A. Replace one-half (1 /2) of the multiplier (1 and V2 percent for the first 20 years and 2
percent thereafter), with a defined contribution plan that provides matching
requirements based on an actuarially equivalent value. The normal cost as of the
10/1/10 valuation was 32.59 percent, resulting in an actuarially equivalent value of
16.3 percent as the City's contribution.
The employees would continue to have a defined benefit with a multiplier of l and Y2
percent for the first 20 years and 2 percent thereafter.
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report Page 45
70
B. Replace one third of the multiplier (1 percent for the first 20 years and 1 and 1/3
percent thereafter} with a defined contribution plan that provides matching
requirements based on an actuarially equivalent value. The normal cost as of the
10/1/10 valuation was 32.59 percent, resulting in an actuarially equivalent value of
10.86 percent as the City's contribution.
The employees would continue to have a defined benefit with a multiplier of 2 percent
for the first 20 years and 2 and 2/3 percent thereafter.
C. Provide a defined benefit component equivalent to the minimum benefits for Police and
Fire to receive premium taxes from the State as defined by F.S. Chapter175/185 (see
Option V for additional details} and a defined contribution component so that the
City's total normal costs are similar to FRS, resulting in a defined contribution
component of 17.46 percent funded by the City.
D. Provide a defined benefit component equivalent to the minimum benefits for Police and
Fire to receive Premium Taxes from the State as defined by F.S . Chapter175/185 (see
Option V for additional details} and a defined contribution component of 12.46
percent funded by the City (with employees providing a 5% contribution to the defined
benefit plan and a matching contribution of 5 percent to the defined contribution
component}. The amount of employee match for the defined contribution plan can be
determined in collective bargaining negotiations, as it will not impact the City's cost.
Results:
Options A and B are designed to simply be a substitution of defined benefits with defined
contributions without significantly impacting cost but substantially reducing risk, therefore
the cost impacts for these are minimal. . In other words, the results are practically the
same as the current defined benefit plan, but the risk is eliminated.
Options C and D result in a range of normal cost equivalents that range between 20 and
25 percent of projected payroll, with a net present value savings over 30 years ranging
between $18 million and $37 million if applied to new employees only; and between
$43 million and $7 4 million if applied to both, new and non-vested current employees.

IV. Changes to the Existing Pension Plan -Past Service/Future Service
Approach With a Combined Benefit):
Issues to Consider:
• Reduced cost over time (savings more significant if changes are made for all
employees)
• Can be designed to keep premium tax revenues-but requires agreement of union
• Does nothing to deal with the risks the City assumes
Potential items were previously identified by the City's Actuary as being the most
significant drivers of cost proposed for either:
1 . New employees and those employees who have not yet vested in the retirement plan
(less than 10 years of service); and
2. All employees who have not yet reached normal retirement age (Rule of 70).
A Multiplier: Reduce to 3 percent (consistent with FRS but, FRS also has Social
Security);
B. Multiplier: Reduce to 2 percent (consistent with F.S . 175/185 minimum);
C. Final Average Monthly Earnings (FAME): Highest 5 of last 10 years (consistent
with F.S. 175/185 minimum and FRS);
D. Retiree cost of living adjustment (COLA): Reduce to 1 .5 percent (consistent with
general employees hired after 10/1/10 in the General Employee Retirement
Plan -MBERP);
E. Retiree COLA: Reduce to 0 percent (for prospectively earned benefits
consistent with FRS);
F. Change Normal Retirement Age: Age 55 with 1 0 years of service or age 52
with 25 years of service (consistent with F.S. 175/185 minimum and FRS);
Beneficiaries: Change benefit to be consistent with FRS benefit; and
G. Employee Contributions: Increase by 2 percent.
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report Page 47
72
Results:
The costs impacts vary significantly for each of the potential components as shown below .
Net Present Value
Savings (in
$millions over 30 years}
Normal Cost All Employees
New Except Those at
Employees Normal
Retirement Age
A 28.67% 19.5 34.4
B 19.41% 77.1 107.9
c 29.17% 14.4 19.8
D 28.10% 23.7 45.2
E 23.88% 53.7 100.6
F 27.20% 29.8 61.6
G 28 .97% 17.1 30.1
H 29.57% 11.5 15.7
Further, some of the options are mutually exclusive, and the impacts of all options are
inter-related . Any recommendations will therefore need to be evaluated as a group in
order to determine cost impacts.
V. Changes to the Existing Pension Plan -11 Freeze" Current Plan Benefits for
Past Accruals and Create a 11Minimum" Benefits Plan for Future Service
This option reflects the minimum benefits required to receive State premium taxes as
defined in Florida Statutes 175 and 185 (excluding employees who have already reached
normal retirement age). This is essentially the most a City can save while still continuing to
receive premium taxes . This option "freezes" the past service benefits based on current
salaries. The accrued benefits do not continue to grow as salaries increase.
• Retiree COLA : Reduce to 0 percent (for benefits based on future service consistent
with FRS};
• Multiplier: Reduce to 2 percent per year for future service;
• FAME: Highest 5 of last 10 years
• Change Normal Retirement Age: Age 55 with 1 0 years of service or age 52 with 25
years of service;
• Share Plan: Use 100% of future Chapter175/185 premium tax revenue towards
benefits provided by the defined benefit pension plan (requires union agreement);
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report Page 48
73
• Beneficiaries: Change automatic spousal benefit to 1 0 year certain benefit, and allow
members to purchase other survivor options; and
• Employee Contribution: Reduced from 10 percent to 5 percent.
Results:
This option results in a normal cost equivalent to approximately 12 percent of projected
payroll, with a net present value of savings of approximately $167 million if applied to all
new and existing employees who have not yet reached normal retirement age, over 30
years. It is important to note that this is a low normal cost for a plan for high-risk
employees that do not include Social Security.
VI. Changes to Existing Plan-Package of Items Incorporated Into the
Collective Bargaining Agreements in 2010: (See list below)
• All Employees
• No retiree COLA for at least 2 years of 5-Year Deferred Retirement Option
Plan (DROP) period (Years 3 and 4 of DROP) for participants entering
DROP after 9/1/12; and
• Off-duty compensation pensionable and Sick leave sell back up to the
overtime compensation cap.
• New Employees Only
• Minimum retirement age of 48 for Rule of 70;
• Pushed back the increase in multiplier from 3 percent to 4 percent so that,
the multiplier increase from 3 percent to 4 percent occurs in year 20
instead of year 15;
• FAME increased from 2 to 3 years; and
• Retiree COLA decreased from 2 .5 percent to 1.5 percent.
Results:
This option results in a normal cost equivalent to approximately 23 percent of projected
payroll, with a net present value of savings of approximately $33 million for new
employees, over 30 years. In 2010, Buck Consultan ts, the actuary for the Fire and Police
Pension Plan, estimated the impacts to existing employees to be minimal.
Budget Advisory Committee Pension Reform Report Page 49
74
Additional Policy Changes
The following were additional policy changes discussed by the Committee that could be
implemented without the need for additional actuarial analyses:
• Use 100% of 175/185 share plan monies towards benefits provided by the defined
benefit pension plan (requires union agreement).
• Eliminate the provision that allows for transfer of years of service from Miami Beach
Employee Retirement Plan (MBERP) to Fire and Police Pension Plan (proposed by Fire
and Police Pension Plan Administration).
• Change purchase of service provisions to be based on full actuarial costs (Government
Finance Officers Best Practice and Advisory Papers on Pension Reform).
• Eliminate the use of sick and vacation hours that are currently used to increase
"pensionable pay" (SB 1128 required by 2011 ).
• Reduce the amount of annual overtime pay included in pensionable earnings to a
maximum of 300 hours (SB 1128 required by 2011 ).

Budget Advisory Committee
Pension Reform:
Policy and Guideline Statements
AFFORDABILJTY AND SUSTAINABILITY
GUIDELINE STATEMENT:
• If the City's portion of the total annual cost of retirement benefits contribution exceeds 25 percent
of payroll for general employees and 60 percent of payroll for high risk employees, the City should
review and evaluate potential changes to the collective bargaining agreements between the City
and the Unions, applicable towards the next contract negotiations, in order to identify potential
approaches to reduce the contributions to these levels over the long term.
POLICY STATEMENT:
• The City shall fund at least the normal cost of pension. If this exceeds the amount of the
actuarially determined annual required contribution, the excess should be placed in a pension
stabilization fund, to be made available for future pension shortfalls.
Background/Rationale:
Pension plans require annual contributions from plan sponsors (i.e., municipal governments) and
participants in order to maintain their funding levels. Ideally, those contributions are only necessary to
pay for future benefits that were earned by participants in the current year. That amount is referred to
as the normal contribution. Normal contributions increase as plans provide more generous benefits,
make benefits available to more individuals and reduce the number of years someone needs to work
or lower the age when the plan will begin to pay benefits.
Underfunded pension plans require an additional contribution in order to eventually eliminate their
unfunded liabilities. When pension plans are underfunded, annual contributions need to include the
normal contribution and an additional contribution to pay down the unfunded portion of the liability.
Therefore, if two pension plans have equal benefit policies and equal employee characteristics but
one is 75 percent funded and the other is 100 percent funded, the plan that is 75 percent funded will
require a larger annual contribution in order to pay down its unfunded liability. Plan sponsors do not
have to make up the entire unfunded portion of the liability in a single year. In most cases, that
amount would be too costly for governments to pay in full. Instead, a professional actuary establishes
a payment schedule that allows the sponsor to pay off the unfunded portion of the liability over as
many as 30 years. In short, plans with large unfunded liabilities will pay more in annual pension costs.
The combination of the normal cost funding requirement and the payment for amortization of the
unfunded liability results in a combined annual required contribution (ARC) that the City is required to
pay to each pension plan for the next fiscal year . Typically, this is expressed as a percent of the

Miami Beach Employees Retirement Plan: 25.02%
Fire and Police Pension Plan Normal Cost: 32.59%%
Miami Beach Employees Retirement Plan Normal Cost: 10.80%
At this time, the negotiated changes to the Fire and Police Pension Plan are under litigation.
However, the projections provided by the Fire and Police Pension Plan actuary regarding the impact
of changes collectively bargained for new employees were minimal. In addition, assuming all actuarial
projections were met from FY 2010/11 forward, the ARC as a percent of payroll is projected to
increase to 81.05% by Fiscal Year 2017 contribution.
The Miami Beach Employees Retirement Plan (MBERP) Actuary projected that the 2010 changes to
the plan for new employees would decrease the unfunded liability payment by approximately $6
million - 5. 78% of payroll after 10 years. Even with this decrease, and assuming all actuarial
projections were met from FY 2010/11 forward, the ARC as a percent of payroll is projected to
increase to 37.12% by Fiscal Year 2017, declining each year thereafter.

Budget Advisory Committee
Pension Reform:
Policy and Guideline Statements
POLICY STATEMENT:
• The City should strive to maintain a funded ratio of at least 80 percent for each of its defined
benefit pension plans.
GUIDELINE STATEMENT(S):
• If the funded ratio (actuarial value of assets minus actuarial liabilities) of either of the City of Miami
Beach's pension plans falls below 70 percent, the City should strive to implement approaches to
increase the funded ratio to that level over five (5) years.
Background/Rationale:
Each year, the City receives independent actuarial reports for each of the City's two pension plans.
The actuarial valuation of the pension plan is a mathematical determination of the financial condition
of the plan, which includes: the computation of the present monetary value of benefits payable to
present members, the present monetary value of future employer and employee contributions,
considering the expected mortality rates among employees and retirees, rates of disability, retirement
age, withdrawal from service, salary increases, investment earnings and value of assets.
As part of the annual actuarial valuation for each plan based on plan data as of October 1, the
Actuary evaluates how the actual data for the preceding year compared to the actuarial valuation for
that year. Any differences are reflected as gains or losses in unfunded liability. The unfunded liability
for a plan is the difference between the benefits earned (accrued) and the assets of the plan on a
given date, and is typically amortized and funded over 30 years. The amortization methodology
varies by plan. In the Fire and Police Pension Plan, the amortization is based on increased payments
in proportion to assumed future payroll growth. In the MBERP, an assumption of level amortization
payments is used.
The unfunded liability of the plan is the actuarial accrued liability less the plan actuarial assets. This
amount is expected to have year-by-year fluctuations; however, if the plan's assumptions are consistent
with the plans long-term experience, the changes in the unfunded liability should be offsetting over the life
of the plan. In contrast to the market value of the pension plan assets, the actuarial value of the pension
plan assets is equal to the market value of the assets at a specific data, adjusted to reflect a five-year
phase-in (or smoothing) of any asset experience gain or loss. The five-year smoothing of pension plan
asset value means that only 20 percent of the experience gain or loss that the fund experiences in any one
year is recognized immediately for the purpose of detennining the actuarial value of the plan and the
annual required contribution.
The percent of the actuarial accrued liability funded is a measure of a pension fund's fiscal health. It
compares assets to pension obligations. A percentage over 1 00% means that the fund has more money
than it needs to meet its obligations at that point in time.

Other Information:
The United States Postal Service Office of the Inspector General (June 18, 2010) concluded that 80
percent prefunding of pensions is reasonable based on the following:
• The Standard and Poor's companies' (S&P 500) median prefunding level for pensions in 2009
was 79 percent of liabilities. From 2001 through 2009, S&P 500's pension median prefunding
ranged from 73 to 112 percent.

• The aggregate prefunding for states' pensions in 2008 was also 79 percent. From 2001
through 2009, state governments' aggregate pension prefunding ranged from 59 to 90
percent.
The Government Accountability Office (GAO) reported that many experts consider at least 80 percent
prefunding to be sound for government pensions. (Source: The GAO's State and Local Government
Retiree Benefits Current Funded (5); The GAO's State and Local Government Retiree Benefits
Current Funded Status of Pension and Health Benefits, January 2008.)
The Pension Protection Act of 2006 considers pensions prefunded at less than 70 percent as being
"at risk" and attempts to protect such plans by commencing restrictions on corporate pension funds
only when prefunding is below 80 percent.
The 2011 report prepared by the Leroy Collins Institute at Florida State University for pension
systems across Florida assigned the following grades to pension plans based on percent funded.
GRADE PERCENT FUNDED
A More than 90% funded
B 80 to 90% funded
c 70 to 80% funded
D 60 to 70% funded
F Less than 60% funded
The following cities scored an "F" grade, according to the institute's study: Boynton Beach, Cooper
City, Fort Myers, Hollywood, Homestead, Jacksonville, Miramar, Oakland Park, Ocala, Oviedo, Palm
Beach Gardens, Panama City, Parkland, Plant City, Port Orange, Tamarac, Temple Terrace, Venice
and Winter Haven. The highest rated was Melbourne's general employee plan with 190.1 percent
funding, while Cooper City's general employee and police pension fund sat at the bottom with 35.48
percent funding. Pension funds that exceeded the 100% funded mark --Tallahassee's general,
Clearwater's firefighters, Gainesville's general, Key West's general, Palm Coast's firefighters,
Plantation's firefighters and Rockledge's general and police funds --have more than enough money
in the bank to cover projected payouts to former and current employees.
The federal government has funded its combined Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) and
Federal Employee Retirement System (FERS) pension obligations at only 41 percent of liabilities
and the military's prefunding for pensions is only 24 percent (Source: US Postal Service Office of The
Inspector General Report of Pension Funding, 201 0).

POLICY STATEMENT(S):
• Salary growth should not exceed the average actuarially assumed salary growth in each pension
plan.
Background/Rationale:
Each year, the City receives independent actuarial reports for each of the City's two pension plans.
The actuarial valuation of the pension plan is a mathematical determination of the financial condition
of the plan, which includes: the computation of the present monetary value of benefits payable to
present members, the present monetary value of future employer and employee contributions,
considering the expected mortality rates among employees and retirees, rates of disability, retirement
age, withdrawal from service, salary increases, investment earnings and value of assets.
Each year, experience "gains" in the prior year reduces the actuarial accrued liability. Experience
"losses" for the prior year, conversely, increases the actuarial accrued liability. To the extent that
salary growth is more than the actuarial assumption for the plan, this would result in an experience
"loss" and add to the unfunded liability of the plan.
Salary growth can result from merit increases, automatic step adjustments to salaries annually, cost
of living adjustments impacting all employees or subsets or employees (COLA's), adjustments to
salary ranges based on compensation studies, etc.
Current Conditions:
Projected salary rate increases vary by age.
For the Fire and Police Pension Plan, the average long-term assumption across all ages is 6 percent
per year.
For the Miami Beach Employees Retirement Plan, the assumed increases are as follows:
Years of Service Merit and Seniority Base (Economic) Total Increase
1 4.0% 4.0% 8.0%

Policy and Guideline Statements
POLICY STATEMENT(S):
• The City should require 5, 10 and 20 year projections of required pension contributions as part of
the annual actuarial valuations for each of the City's pension plans. These projections shall be
based on the current actuarial assumptions for each plan. The projections shall be updated to
reflect the cost of any proposed benefit enhancement, before the City Commission agrees to the
enhancement. The cost of these studies shall be funded separately from the annual contribution
to the pension plan.
• There shall be an experience study of each of the City's pension plan's actuarial assumptions
performed by an actuary that is independent from the pension board . The experience study
should be conducted at least once every three (3) years, to compare actual experience to the
assumptions. The independent actuary shall make recommendations for any changes in
assumptions based on the results of the experience study, and any deviations from those
assumptions by the pension board shall be justified to the City Commission.
• Once pension reform is implemented, a 5/ih vote of the City Commission should be required for
further pension changes.
Background/Rationale:
Changes to plan benefits can affect the actuarial accrued liability of a plan, either positively or
negatively. If plan benefits are increased , the mathematical calculations will result in more benefits
anticipated to be paid to plan members in the future, which will need to be recognized all at once ,
although payments would be amortized over the long-term. Conversely, if plan benefits are reduced,
with all else being equal, the plan will see a reduction in the actuarial accrued liability.

APPROPRIATE BENEFITS TO PROVIDE TO EMPLOYEES
DRAFT POLICY STATEMENT(S):
• The City of Miami Beach should strive to provide a retirement benefit that provides for a
replacement of salary at a level at least equivalent to Social Security plus a supplemental
retirement benefit.
Background/Rationale:
In the United States, 96 percent of workers are covered by Social Security. The benefit payment is
based on how much is earned during your working career. Higher lifetime earnings result in higher
benefits. If there were some years when you did not work or had low earnings, your benefit amount may
be lower than if you had worked steadily. Social Security replaces about 40 percent of preretirement
income for the average worker. The average replacement rate for lower-paid workers equals about 55
percent of their pre-retirement earnings. The average replacement rate for highly paid workers is about 25
percent.
Windfall Elimination Provision
Before 1983, people who worked mainly in a job not covered by Social Security had their Social Security
benefits calculated as if they were long-term, low-wage workers. They had the advantage of receiving a
Social Security benefit representing a higher percentage of their earnings, plus a pension from a job where
they did not pay Social Security taxes. Congress passed the Windfall Elimination Provision to remove that
advantage.
Government Pension Offset
If you receive a pension from a federal, state or local government based on work where you did not pay
Social Security taxes, your Social Security spouse's or widow's or widower's benefits may be reduced by
two-thirds of your government pension.

Current Conditions:
The City of Miami Beach currently does not participate in Social Security. In evaluating proposed
changes to the City's pension plans, the fact that the City does not participate in Social Security must
be taken into account.

Policy and Guideline Statements
POLICY STATEMENT(S):
• City of Miami Beach retirement benefits should be adjusted periodically after retirement to reflect
the impacts of inflation, with rates no more than the Consumer Price Index for All Workers (CPI-
W), subject to Commission approval, and with a maximum of 3 percent annually.
Background/Rationale:
Most people are aware that there are annual increases in Social Security benefits to offset the effects of
inflation on fixed incomes. These increases, now known as cost-of-living adjustments (COLAs), are such
an accepted feature of the program that it is difficult to imagine a time when there were no COLAs.
Before 1975, beneficiaries had to await a special act of Congress to receive a benefit increase.
Beginning in 1975, Social Security started automatic annual COLAs. The change was enacted by
legislation that ties COLAs to the annual increase in the CPI-W.

RECRUITMENT AND RETENTION
POLICY STATEMENT(S):
• The City of Miami Beach should strive to provide retirement benefits that ensure that the City is
competitive in recruitment and retention of employees.
Background/Rationale:
Salary ranges for job classifications in City of Miami Beach are periodically reviewed to ensure
internal equity and external competitiveness. Internal equity refers to the relationships (duties, level of
responsibilities, salary, tenure, etc.) between positions within the same organization. External equity
refers to the relationships (duties, level of responsibilities, salary, tenure, etc.) between positions to
the external labor market, in both, the public and private sectors. Benefits, including pension, are
also periodically reviewed.
Current Conditions:
In the past, particularly during periods of low unemployment rates when competition for employees
has been tight, the City has targeted to set salaries in the 75th percentile of neighboring jurisdictions,
and to provide benefits similar to neighboring jurisdictions.
Comparison to Florida Retirement System (FRS) and Comparative Local
Jurisdictions:
See survey of pension benefits provided by neighboring jurisdictions
In addition, the 2009 Classification and Compensation Study prepared by Condrey and Associates for
the City of Miami Beach concluded that "the City's retirement benefit, while generous, appears
appropriate considering the employee 8 percent contribution to the fund (based on a comparison to
other jurisdictions locally and throughout Florida).

MANAGEMENT OF RISK/RISK SHARING
POLICY STATEMENT(S):
• The City of Miami Beach should strive to share some portion of retirement benefit risk with
employees.
GUIDELINE STATEMENT(S):
• If the City's contribution to a defined pension benefit plan exceeds 25 percent of payroll for
general employees and 60 percent of payroll for high-risk employees, the employee contribution
should be reviewed.
Background/Rationale:
With the City of Miami Beach's two pension plans, the City bears 100 percent of the risk of the
volatility of the equity market; whereas, with private sector pension plans, the risk is born by the
employee.

N N N Pension Legacy Cost -The UAAL Issue • Total Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability (UAAL) of City pension plans as of 10/1/10 was $445 million: > Fire/Police: $296 million >General: $149 million • By law the City is responsible for funding the UAAL-even if employees are transferred to other employers, and even if the current pension plans are closed, frozen or terminated. • Annual UAAL payment is approximately half of the annual required contribution in each plan -these do not go away/could increase due to plan closure, etc. 23
N N (..) Key Concepts • 11Ciose" -existing plan closed to new members; current members stay in existing plan until they retire or leave the City; future employees join new plan. • 11Freeze" -accrued benefits of current employees in existing plan 11frozen" and paid out at retirement; all current and future employees join new plan. • 11Terminate" -existing plan liquidated; accrued benefits paid out to plan members; City responsible for any deficit; all current and future employees join new plan. 24
1\,) 1\,) ,J:o. Legal Guidelines • Changes in retirement benefits and employee contributions are mandatory subjects of collective bargaining. • Accrued pension benefits (benefits earned in the past) cannot be reduced or taken away. • Future benefits can be reduced for current employees who have not reached retirement status. • City is ultimately responsible for unfunded pension liabilities. 25
-Social Security • City currently does not participate in Social Security. ~ • In evaluating proposed changes to the City's pension pl-ans, the fact that the City does not participate in Social Security must be taken into account. 26
N N en Pension Reform Options • Join FRS • Reduce Benefits for New Hires {2 Tier) • Reduce Benefits for All Employees • Set up Defined Contribution {DC) plan • Set up Hybrid DB + DC plan 27
Join FRS for New Hires Issues to Consider • No immediate savings--may take many years to achieve cost savings; City still must pay off current plan liabilities and may shorten amortization period, thereby increasing cost in the short-term ~ • City must join Social Security as a condition of joining FRS • Standardized FRS benefits • Portability-easier for City to attract employees from other FRS agencies (but also easier for other FRS agencies to hire employees away) • Lose police/fire premium tax revenues immediately • State legislature sets benefits and contributions 28
Join FRS for All Employees Issues to Consider • May reduce City cost in shorter period -but City still must pay off unfunded liabilities, and may require shorter amortization period, thereby increasing cost in the short-term • City must join Social Security as a condition of joining FRS ~ • Current City plan can be closed, frozen or terminated co • Standardized FRS benefits • Portability-easier for City to attract employees from other FRS agencies (but also easier for other FRS agencies to hire employees away) • Lose police/fire premium tax revenues immediately • State legislature sets benefits and contributions 29
Reduce Benefits for New Hires (2 Tier Plan) Issues to Consider • No immediate savings--may take many years to achieve cost savings-savings are achieved only as new staff are hired ~ • Current employees keep current benefits • Creates lower level of benefits for new hires • New hires can be expected to eventually press for benefits similar to longer tenured employees Note: Miami Beach implemented 2 Tier pension plans for General employees in 2010 -Fire and Police plan implementation pending litigation 30
N (.,) c Reduce Benefits for All Employees Issues to Consider • Immediate cost savings • Reduces unfunded liabilities, because future benefits are reduced for all • Same level of benefits for all employees going forward • Reduces future benefits for current employees (employees keep what they have already earned) • Loss of premium tax revenues if Fire and Police Plan benefits reduced below Ch. 175/185 minimums Note: City implemented increase in employee contributions and 5 yr. averaging period for all members of General Plan in 2010. 31
Defined Contribution Plan Issues to Consider • Predictable City costs • Investment risk shifts from City to employees • Appeals to younger, mobile employees ~ • Portability-DC account balance may be II rolled over" to an IRA or ..a. other retirement plan with another employer • Lower administrative costs • No actuarial liabilities-Employees bear investment risk • Possible that DC benefits will run out while employee is still alive • No inflation protection (COLA) • Loss of premium tax revenues for Fire and Police Plans • Benefit would have to exceed social security to be competitive • No Florida City has implemented DC plan for police or fire (yet) 32
Hybrid Plan • Hybrid DB I DC plans combine: ~ Base DB plan-guaranteed benefit ~DC plan (with matching employer & employee ~ contributions) on top of DB plan • Hybrid plans are attractive because they provide: ~Shared risk ~Shared cost ~Some level of guaranteed benefit • Social Security issue 33

Ch. 175/185 Premium Taxes • Chapters 175 & 185, F.S. provide for a rebate of the state excise tax on property and casualty insurance premiums to cities with police and firefighter pension plans. ~ • The premium tax monies must be used exclusively for firefighter and police pensions, and the local pension plan must comply with the requirements of Ch. 175 & 185. • Premium taxes received in excess of the "frozen amount" must be used for extra benefits. 35
Ch. 175/185 Premium Taxes • In 2010 the City received a total of $2 million in premium tax (PT) revenues -about 3.87% of payroll. (Fire-$1.46M; Police -$603K) ~ • The City is able to use $120K of the premium tax money received each year to offset the City's contributions to the pension plan. This is the 11frozen amount." • The rest of the PT money --$1.9 million last year -went to 11Share plans" for firefighters and police officers. 36
1\,) w en Ch. 175/185 Premium Tax Issues • Under current law and State non-rule policy, the "City" will lose PT monies if: -~The current plan is closed, frozen or terminated; or ~The City joins FRS; or ~ Benefits are reduced below 1999 level • Increase in member contributions requires collective bargaining and benefit increase.

N (11 N • Each year, the City receives from each pension plan administrator independent actuarial reports for each of the plans • These reports specify the City's annual required contribution (ARC) for the upcoming fiscal year as of the prior October 1 valuation date • The ARC is determined by each pension plan actuary, in accordance with State Statutes, and is based on various assumptions established by each pension plan Board of Trustees in consultation with the pension plan Actuary and Investment Consultant • Under State Statute, the City is required to fully fund the ARC
• The valuation is based on wage data as of 1 0/1 and important assumptions include: • mortality rates • retirement ages ~ • future salary increases • pension plan expenses • investment performance assumptions • These assumptions should mirror the actual plan experience over the long term.
N (11 ,J:I. ANNUAL ACTUARIAL VALUATION • The market value of the plan is the total value of all plan investments as of a given point in time based on current market value on that date. • The actuarial value of the pension plan assets is equal to the market value of the assets at a specific date, adjusted to reflect a 5-year phased-in (or smoothing) of any asset experience gain or loss • only 20°/o of the experience gain or loss that the fund experiences in any one ( 1) year is recognized • Using the actuarial value methodology allows the pension plan to spread the annual investment experience over a period of time (5 years).

I • The actuarial accrued liability reflects a snapshot at a point in time based on plan benefits and assumptions • The actuarial accrued liability generally represents the portion of the Present Value of Fully Projected Benefits attributable to service earned (or accrued) as of the valuation date-i.e. those benefits which will be paid out over the life of the participants • The unfunded liability for a plan is the difference between the benefits earned (accrued) and the assets of the plan on a given date, and is typically amortized and funded over 30 years Example: • Accrued Actuarial Liability • Actuarial Value of Assets • Unfunded Liability • Percent Funded • Market Value of Assets $600 million $500 million $100 million 83°/o $550 million
EXPERIENCE GA N OR LOSS • As part of the annual actuarial valuation, the Actuary evaluates how the actual data for the preceding year compares to the actuarial valuation for that year--Any differences are reflected as gains or losses in unfunded liability ~ • Experience "gains" in the prior year reduces the actuarial accrued liability Examples of experience gains include: • Investment earnings for the prior year in excess of plan assumptions • employees retiring later than assumed • salary growth less than assumed, etc. • Experience "losses" for the prior year, conversely, increases the actuarial accrued liability • These aains or losses are amortized over 30
• Changes to plan benefits can also affect the actuarial accrued liability of a plan, either positively or negatively ~ • If plan benefits are increased, the mathematical calculations will result in more benefits anticipated to be paid to plan members in the future, which will need to be recognized all at once, although payments would be amortized over the long term • If plan benefits are reduced, all else being equal, the plan will see a reduction in the actuarial accrued liability
N (J1 co • The investment rate of return is significant as this affects the calculation of present value of the plan benefits • How much the plan should have on hand today, which together with investment earnings (the investment rate of return), employer contributions, and employee contributions, should be sufficient to fund the plan in the future
N (11 CD • MBERP has had an average actuarial rate of return of 8.5o/o since September 30, 1989 through September 30, 2010 Prior to March 18, 2006, there were two separate pension plans for civilian employees: one for General (Classified) Employees and the other for Unclassified Employees-the Unclassified Plan had an average actuarial rate of return of 11.0o/o from September 30, 1989 through September 30, 2006 • The Fire and Police pension plan returns from September 1989 through September 2010 average 8.52o/o (Base Plan). •Prior to 2000, the Fire and Police Plan had a separate supplemental component.
