Analysis

This charter ordinance increases monthly payments to members of the policemen's annuity and benefit fund based on a formula taking into account current supplemental payments, and also abolishes the supplementary payment fund as a separate fund within the policemen's annuity and benefit fund.

Body

The Mayor and Common Council of the City of Milwaukee do ordain as follows:

 

Part 1.  Section 35-01-71-f of the charter is created to read:

35-01.  Policemen's Annuity and Benefit Fund.

71.  ANNUITY INCREASES.

f.  Pensioner as of January 1, 2006.

f-1.  Commencing in 2006 the $94 and $33 supplemental annuities will be permanent for any pensioner (annuitant and widow annuitant).

f-2.  Commencing in 2006 for any pensioner (annuitant and widow annuitant) their annuity will increase in accordance with the following formula:

f-2-a.  If the sum of the December 2005 annuity payment plus the $94 and the $33 supplemental annuities is less than or equal to $440, the total annuity payment inclusive of the $94 and the $33 supplemental annuities will be $500.

f-2 b.  If the sum of the December 2005 annuity payment plus the $94 and the $33 supplemental annuities is greater than $440, the total annuity payment inclusive of the $94 and the $33 supplemental annuities will increase by $60.

 

Part 2.  Section 35-05 of the charter is repealed.

 

Part 3.  This is a charter ordinance and shall take effect 60 days after its passage and publication, unless within such 60 days a referendum petition is filed as provided in s. 66.0101(5), Wis. Stats., in which event this ordinance shall not take effect until submitted to a referendum and approved by a majority of the electors voting thereon.
