The Oklahoma City Employee Retirement System board met Dec. 12, 2024, and approved a series of routine consent and administrative items, ratified an amendment for outside legal services and elected leadership for 2025.
Early on the agenda the board approved the minutes from Nov. 14, 2024, the consent docket, ratification of approvals, the claims docket and multiple service-retirement applications. The board also approved two separate reports of death: one authorizing payment of the $5,000 death benefit and continuation of a pension to a surviving spouse, and another authorizing payment and administrative changes to conform records.
Under Item 10, trustees approved the board’s 2025 regular meeting schedule. Item 10b presented "Amendment No. 6 with Graham & Stubbs LLP for professional legal services 01/01/2025 through 12/31/2025 estimated cost 35,000 per year." The board moved, seconded and approved the amendment.
