The following synopsis of the new law has been compiled by Illinois Public Pension Advisory Committee General Counsel, Attorney Cary J. Collins. Highlights of the new law as it pertains to Article 3 and Article 4 pension funds are as follows: I. Creation of Two Tier System for Firefighters and Police Officers A. The benefits for current police officers and firefighters and for those currently receiving a pension have not changed. B. Changes apply to police officers and firefighters hired after December 31, 2010. C. Minimum retirement age 55 years D. Minimum of 10 years service as police officer or firefighter is required to be eligible to receive a retirement pension. E. Retirement pension based upon 2.5% of "final average salary" for a maximum of 75% F. Can retire after age 50 with minimum of 10 years service, but penalty of ½ of 1% for each month police officer/firefighter age is under 55. G. Final average salary is defined as: "The average monthly salary obtained by dividing the total salary of the police officer/firefighter during the 96 consecutive months of service within the last 120 months of service in which the total salary was the highest by the number of months of service in that period." Meaning, the officer or firefighter's pension will be based upon his/her best eight consecutive years out of the last ten years of his/her service. H. Beginning January 1, 2011 Salary Cap police officers'/firefighters' salary for pension purposes is capped at $106,800, however that amount shall annually be increased by the lesser of ½ of the annual CPIU or 3% (but not less than zero) for the 12 months ending with the September preceding each November 1 (compounded). I. Cost of Living Increases Payable at age 60 either on the January 1 st after police officer/firefighter retires or the first anniversary of pension starting date, whichever is later. Noncompounding increases will occur annually, each January thereafter. The increase will be the lesser of 3% or ½ of CPIU for proceeding calendar year. Meaning, if CPIU is 0%, the retiree will receive no increase. However, there will never be a reduction in benefits. J. Surviving spouse benefits Initial benefit is 66 2/3% of police officer's/firefighter's earned pension at date of death. However, surviving spouses will receive cost of living increases in the same manner described above. In addition to creating a twotier benefit structure, the General Assembly expanded the investment authority of existing downstate police and fire pension funds with a t least $10 million in net assets. The expanded investment authority is summarized as follows: II. Changes to Article 3 and 4 Pension Fund Investment Authority. A. The increased investment authority only applies to funds with more than $10 million in net assets. B. Can invest in corporate bonds through an investment advisor (not a consultant) C. Corporate bonds must meet the following requirements: 1. Rated as investment grade by 1 of the 2 largest rating services at time of purchase. 2.

The bonds must be rated as investment grade by one of the 2 largest rating services at the time of purchase. B.
