Police and fire pension boards approve proposed budgets for coming year
Summary
On Aug. 4 the Cocoa Beach pension boards approved proposed budgets for the coming year; members discussed a 4% contract increase and a line item for an independent medical examiner, and both police and fire sides recorded voice approval.
The Cocoa Beach Police and Fire pension boards approved proposed budgets for the coming fiscal year during the Aug. 4 meeting.
Board members asked for clarification about a 4% increase in the packet; Mariner and staff confirmed that the increase was "by contract." Members also asked about a budget line for an independent doctor to support disability or death-of-duty examinations; Mariner said that expense is anticipatory and may not be spent unless needed. After questions were resolved, motions to approve the proposed budgets were moved, seconded and approved by voice vote on both the police and fire sides.
The boards did not change budget line items at the meeting; a motion and recorded voice vote carried each approval. The vote and discussion were procedural and routine, and the boards proceeded to hear the Mariner performance update afterward.
