<br />94-466 - Letter from the City Manager recommending adoption of
<br />an ordinance to amend the Code of the City of Portsmouth,
<br />Virginia, by amending Section 30-237(b), pertaining to Police
<br />and Fire service retirement allowances.
<br />
<br /> "Effective July 1, 1994 City Council extended a $200 a
<br />month supplement to members of the Portsmouth Fire and Police
<br />System and Portsmouth Supplemental Retirement System from age 62
<br />to age 65. This supplement only applies to those members who
<br />retire under Normal Service Retirement.
<br />
<br /> Inadvertently, the subsequent sections to be excluded from
<br />the $200 a month supplement in the Fire and Police Retirement
<br />System were numbered incorrectly. In order to correct this
<br />error, it is necessary to adopt an ordinance to amend Section
<br />30-237(b) of the Retirement section of the City Code to clarify
<br />application of the service retirement allowance.
<br />
<br />I, therefore, recommend your adoption of this ordinance."
