Pension Changes for Local Governments in Florida
FCCMA Webinar

Friday, May 18 (2:00 PM to 3:00 PM, EDT)

Local pension plans have become one of the biggest challenges facing Florida's cities in recent years, with many plans turning into unsustainable financial burdens. The FCCMA's March webinar provided an overview of current pension issues and trends (recording of March's session available here); in this webinar, four case studies of pension reform will be presented - providing attendees with valuable information on what four Florida cities have actually done to reform their pension systems. Attendees will learn what obstacles had to be overcome and the processes that were followed in each city to make "real" pension reform possible. This is a must attend session for local government managers who are wrangling with pension costs and benefits. Panelists include: Florida League of Cities' Paul Shamoun, St Pete Beach City Manager Mike Bonfield, Naples City Manager Bill Moss, Hollywood Finance Director Matt Lalla, and Town Manager Peter Elwell of Palm Beach.
