| Union Members, I have asked Paul Lutomski with City Pension/Personnel to speak at the next Union meeting on March 9th. Lutomski will have information regarding our PEHP account and what the money in the account can and can't be used for. He will also discuss what needs to be done prior to an officer retiring so the transition from active officer to retired officer is as smooth as possible. He will also answer any questions regarding our pension/PEHP/DROP accounts. This is a good opportunity to show up and asked questions if you have any. I have also spoke with recently retired Captain, Dennis Duckworth. He has agreed to come and talk with the union about the DROP program, PEHP and his experience with his recent retirement and what to expect when you retire. Barrett #1101 |
