NOTE 14 - PENSION PLAN Florida Retirement System Plan Description Okaloosa County contributes to the Florida Retirement System (FRS), a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan administered by the State of Florida Division of Retirement, Department of Management Services. The FRS provides retirement, disability or death benefits to plan members or their designated beneficiaries. Florida Statutes Chapter 121 provides the authority under which benefit provisions are established. The provisions may only be amended by legislative action. Beginning in 2002, a defined contribution plan alternative to the existing defined benefit plan known as the Public Employee Optional Retirement Program or the FRS Investment Plan became available to FRS members. Members in either plan who have reached normal retirement age may retire and continue employment with the County for up to 60 months. During that period the member’s retirement benefits accumulate in the FRS Trust Fund increased by a cost-of-living adjustment each July and earned interest at an annual rate of 6.5%. The FRS issues a publicly available financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary information. That report may be obtained on the State of Florida Department of Management Services website at www.dms.myflorida.com. FRS Plan Changes Effective July 1, 2011, the Florida Legislature passed Senate Bill 2100 that made substantive changes to the Florida Retirement System (FRS). The new Bill requires all FRS Investment and Pension Plan members (except those in Deferred Retirement Option Program, DROP) to now pay a 3% employee contribution, on a pretax basis, beginning on or after July 1, 2011. Cost of living adjustments (COLA) on or after July 1, 2011 are not automatic at 3%, but based on total years of service earned prior to July 1, 2011 to total years of service at retirement, multiplied by 3%. New members enrolling into FRS for the first time after July 1, 2011 will be subject to additional changes including 1) an increased vesting period from 6 years to 8 years, 2) a change calculation of benefits using Average Final Compensation (AFC) on the highest eight years of compensation as compared to highest five years. In addition, the normal retirement date for Regular, Senior Management Service, Elected Officers’, and Special Risk Administrative Support Classes was modified to be age 65, with 8 years of service or 33 years of service regardless of age. Normal retirement for Special Risk Class members now at age 60, with 8 years of service, or 30 years of special risk class service or age 57, with 30 years of combined special risk class service and military service. For those members participating in the DROP program, the Legislature reduced the annual interest rate used for benefits from 6.5% to 1.3%. The funding policy relative to the FRS plan is disclosed below. 72 Packet Pg. 130 Okaloosa County, Florida NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2013 NOTE 14 - PENSION PLAN - CONTINUED Funding Policy Contribution requirements of the plan are established in Florida Statutes Chapter 121 and may only be amended by legislative action. Effective July 1, 2011, the Florida Legislature passed Senate Bill 2100 requiring all employee members to contribute 3% to the Plan. Formerly, only employers were required to contribute to the FRS Plan. The FRS funding policy now provides for monthly employer and employee contributions at actuarially determined rates that, expressed as percentages of annual covered payroll are adequate to accumulate sufficient assets to pay benefits when due. Level percentages of payroll employer contribution rates, established by state law, are determined using the entry-age actuarial funding method. If an unfunded actuarial liability re-emerges as a result of future plan benefit changes, assumption changes, or methodology changes, it is assumed any unfunded actuarial liability would be amortized over 30 years, using level dollar amounts. Except for gains reserved for rate stabilization, it is anticipated future actuarial gains and losses are amortized on a rolling 10% basis, as a level dollar amount. In July 2002, the Florida Legislature established a uniform contribution rate system for the FRS, which remained in effect with the passage of Senate Bill 2100. The uniform contribution system covers both the FRS Pension
