Pension System
On May 13, 2008
the City of Detroit, The Detroit Police and Fire Pension Board and the
active unions entered into an agreement that afforded benefits to the City
in the amount of $75,000,000 and increased retirement and sick time benefits
for active members of the pension system. This was accomplished by allowing
the City to forego making full pension contributions ($25,000,000 per year
for 3 years). The retired members of the pension system were given no consideration
during these negotiations.
On June 26, 2008 we filled
a lawsuit, in Wayne County Circuit Court, against The City, The Pension
Board and the active Unions, asking that this backroom deal be nullified
and The City be required to make their full pension contributions. Our
Attorney, Michael Stefani advised us the lawsuit has been assigned to Judge
William J. Giovan's Courtroom.
Lawsuit Heard by Judge MacDonald:
The lawsuit heard
by Judge MacDonald regarding over payment of premiums for Delta Dental
and U S Health for an 8 month period from July 2005 to February 2006
has been settled and some our members will be receiving refunds. Refund
amounts will very, the average will be around $100.
This lawsuit is not connected
to the lawsuit being heard in Judge Torres Court.
