Jacksonville Beach pension boards approve two retirement applications
Summary
The Jacksonville Beach pension boards approved a pair of retirement applications Tuesday: a facilities manager on the general employees plan and a police corporal on the police officers plan. Both motions passed by roll call vote.
The Jacksonville Beach pension boards approved retirement applications for a city facilities maintenance manager and a police corporal during their quarterly meeting.
The general employees board approved the retirement application of Ronald Curtis, facilities maintenance manager, effective Sept. 1, 2025, with a separation date listed as Aug. 31, 2025. The board recorded that Curtis "meets age service requirements for normal retirement at 15 years and 7 months of service." A motion to approve was made by Jim and seconded; the roll call recorded Nick Curry, Christine Hoffman and Eddie Vergara voting yes and the motion carried.
The police officers board approved the retirement application of Police Corporal Anthony Bennett, effective Sept. 1, 2025, with a separation date recorded in the minutes as Dec. 29, 2010, and a statement that he "meets age service requirements for vested retirement, 11 years and 11 months of service." The board moved and seconded the application; roll-call voting recorded David Cohill, John Patrick, John Gottsdella and Jason Sharp voting yes, and the retirement was approved.
Nut graf: The approvals were procedural confirmations that applicants meet plan eligibility. Both actions were taken by formal motion and roll-call vote rather than by unanimous voice vote; the clerks recorded the individual yes votes for the official minutes.
Board members and staff who participated in the motions noted the effective dates and service-time calculations on the record. No board member raised objections during the votes, and no appeals or contested issues were recorded in the meeting transcript for either application.
Ending: The actions will be reflected in the pension plans' administrative records and actuarial reporting for the upcoming fiscal year; the meeting minutes record the roll-call votes and the effective dates for benefit administration.
