Pending Governor’s signature of Senate Bill 143, effective July 1, 2026, members will be able to continue to be employed by a Fire Department and draw their pension benefit from the Pension Fund. Requirements are:
- member must be a minimum age of 55 and
- member must have a minimum of 25 years of creditable service
We are updating the Pension Benefit Application to include this new category of benefit recipients. The current application does not apply to those who will continue to work while drawing benefits. Only the revised application will be accepted for those members who will not terminate employment.
Further information, including the applicable revised Pension Benefit Application, will be forthcoming.
