Subject: Pension Board Agenda Item Backup
Monica,
Here are excerpts from the minutes of the last General Employees Pension Board meeting of November 2 regarding the
payment to Gehring Group. Lori is requesting you provide a written explanation which we can use as backup for this
agenda item:
VII. CONSENT AGENDA
Board Member Gload noted the Board had previously approved paying the fiduciary liability policy
premium for two years at a time because the premium would stay the same; however, the amount was
$56 higher than the last payment. Recording Secretary Laur confirmed this was the second year; the
premium should have been the same. Pension Coordinator McWilliams indicated she would ask HR
Director Merlene Reid to come in to explain. Consensus was to pull this item from the Consent
Agenda for discussion later in the meeting.
MOTION:
Board Member Gload made a motion to approve the Consent Agenda with the ratification of an
invoice to The Gehring Group pulled for discussion. Board Member Mayo seconded the motion,
which carried by unanimous 40 vote. Therefore, the following items were approved on the
Consent Agenda:
X. ANY OTHER MATTERS
Request for ratification of payment to The Gehring Group for this Board's portion of the
fiduciary liability insurance premium -pulled from the Consent Agenda
Pension Coordinator McWilliams advised the HR Director had indicated unless the Village
Manager required her to come speak to the Board that the Board relay their request or
comments and she would investigate it and provide a report on it. Attorney Jensen
commented there was a surcharge of $40.97 now required by the State of Florida that might
possibly account for some of the difference in the premium amount. Pension Coordinator
McWilliams advised there was a difference of $55.66 from the amount paid last year and after
referring to the May minutes she thought this might be the ftrst year of a two-year premium
payment. Attorney Jensen explained what the fiduciary liability police covered for the benefit
of new member Terzakis. Discussion ensued regarding the premium amount and the amount
of the last paymenf. This would be a regular item on the next agenda.
Monica, let me know if any questions. I will need this explanation and your reports on
Wednesday, January 20 in order to finalize the agenda packets that day.
Thanks!
Betty

The fiiduciary insurance premium is allocated between pension trusts based upon each funds percentage ofi total
cash and investments in all pension trusts (sum of cash and investments in funds #601, #602, #603).
