Mantorville council approves higher PERA benefit level for vested volunteer firefighters
Summary
The council unanimously adopted Resolution 2024-28 to opt in to an increased benefit level for volunteer firefighters vested in the Statewide Volunteer Firefighter Plan after a presentation by Mantorville Fire Department members.
The Mantorville City Council voted unanimously Nov. 25 to adopt Resolution 2024-28, opting to increase the benefit level for firefighters who are vested in the Statewide Volunteer Firefighter Plan.
Troy Stafford and Roger Nolte of the Mantorville Fire Department briefed the council on the change before Councilmember Jeff Ingalls moved the resolution and Councilmember Lynnette Nash seconded. The motion carried 4–0.
The resolution was described in the meeting as an opt-in to a higher benefit level under the Statewide Volunteer Firefighter Plan; the transcript does not specify a dollar amount or formula for the change. No opposing views or roll-call vote breakdown by individual councilmember was recorded in the minutes.
Because the item was approved on the consent of the council and no additional implementation steps were detailed at the meeting, staff follow-up on administrative implementation (for example, updating payroll or benefit records) would be the next procedural step, although the transcript does not list a timetable or assigned staff.
