Title
Application for Disability Retirement - Thomas H. Miller (B)
This item requests approval of the Disability Retirement application of former Production Technician Thomas H. Miller
Explanation
A meeting of the Disability Review Committee was conducted on Monday, February 13, 2017 to review the application for disability retirement of Production Technician Thomas H. Miller. Mr. Miller has progressive, current, and on-going conditions that will prevent him from returning and performing essential functions of his job as a Production Technician. His relevant medical information was reviewed by the Plan’s third party administrator and they determined that Mr. Miller is unable to perform sedentary work on an uninterrupted basis. This is the standard for approving a disability retirement under the General Employee’s Pension Plan. In reviewing the application and supporting information from his physician, it is the recommendation of the Disability Review Committee that the Board of Trustees of the Plan approves the application.
Fiscal Note
Mr. Miller’s out-of-line-of duty pension benefit is $1641.62 before Social Security Offsets and will be paid out of the City of Gainesville Employee’s Pension Plan. The benefit is gross of any additional offsets associated with collateral income as required by the Plan. If Mr. Miller should receive collateral employer provided benefit income, those offsets will be taken from the monthly benefit.
Recommendation
The Board of Trustees of the City of Gainesville Employee’s Pension Plan approve the disability retirement of Thomas H. Miller retro-active to December 1, 2016.
