Title
Application for Disability Retirement Judy Garver Roberts (B)
This item requests approval of the Disability Retirement application of former Transit Operations Supervisor-RTS Judy Garver Roberts
Explanation
A meeting of the Disability Review Committee was conducted on Thursday, October 10, 2019 to review the application for disability retirement of former Transit Operations Supervisor-RTS Judy Garver Roberts. Her relevant medical information was reviewed by the Plan’s third party administrator and they determined that Ms. Roberts is unable to perform the job duties as a Transit Operations Supervisor-RTS for the City of Gainesville. 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
Ms. Robert’s out-of-line-of duty pension benefit is $294.72 before Social Security Offsets and will be paid out of the City of Gainesville Employee’s Pension Plan. The benefit is gross of any offsets associated with collateral income as required by the Plan. Unfortunately, Ms. Roberts is deceased and only one month of benefit would be due for August 2019. The amount due will be paid to her survivors.
Recommendation
The Board of Trustees of the City of Gainesville Employee’s Pension Plan approve the disability retirement of Judy Garver Roberts retro-active to August 1, 2019.
