C 2639 North Monroe Street Tallahassee, Florida 32399-1560 Re: Actuarial Impact Statement for the Dania Beach General Employees Retirement System Dear Mr. Slavin: • Please review the enclosed ordinance which would establish a Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) and Health Insurance Subsidy. The COLA would be funded by a portion of actuarial gains. The Subsidy would be funded by 75% of any actuarial gains remaining after applying the COLA provision. The Subsidy money would be used first to pay one-third of health insurance premiums for those whose benefits are in pay status. If any money remains after the first use, it would be used to pay the remaining two-thirds of health insurance premiums for those whose benefits are in pay status. If there is still money remaining, it will be accrued in a "future benefit reserve account"to be used to provide future benefits for retirees and survivors. No advance funding would be required for this provision. However, in future years when there is an actuarial gain, this provision will prevent the City's cost from decreasing as much as it otherwise would in the absence of the provision. In our opinion, the proposed changes are in compliance with Part VII, Chapter 112, Florida Statutes and Section 14, Article X of the State Constitution.
