At the conclusion of the agenda the
committee was addressed by Bill Scheu, Chairman of
the Pension Task Force, who explained the injunction recently issued by Judge
Waddell Wallace enjoining members of the Task Force from meeting privately with
representatives of the Police and Fire Pension Fund to discuss pension plan
benefits. He interprets that the
injunction does not apply to discussion of matters relating to unfunded
actuarial liability, pension plan governance or investment policy, the other
issues that the Task Force has been considering that are not subject to
collective bargaining regulations. The
Task Force will continue to work on all 4 issues within the limitations imposed
by the judge and should have a report and recommendations ready for the City
Council, Mayor and Police and Fire Pension Fund board by early February. Mr. Scheu
recommended that the Council not act on 2013-669 until the Task Force
recommendations are presented.
