REPORT RE: INCREASE IN RETIREMENT PAY RESOLUTION - CARRIED OVER RE: OVER-EXPENDED ACCOUNTS ORDINANCE ADOPTED RE: PIPING ANNUAL APPROPRIATION RESOLUTION To THE MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL CITY OF CHARLOTTESVILLE~ VIRGINIA GENTLEMEN: WHEN THE 1962-63 BUDGET WAS BEING CONSIDERED I SUGGESTED THAT THE CITY SHOULD INCREASE THE AMOUNT EACH RETIRED PERSON WAS RECEIVING DUE TO THE FACT THAT THEIR RETIREMENT PAY HAD BEEN FIXED ON A LOWER WAGE SCALE THAN PERSONS WHO WOULD BE RETIRING AT THIS TINE. ACCORDINGLYj I RECOMMEND THAT PERSONS WHO WERE RETIRED PRIOR-TO JANUARY 1~ 1958 BE GIVEN AN INCREASE OF 10~ ON THEIR RETIREMENT PAY; THAT PERSONS WHO WERE RETIRED BETWEEN JANUARY 1~ 1958 AND JANUARY 1~ ~960 BE GIVEN A 7~ INCREASE~ AND THAT PERSONS WHO RETIRED BETWEEN JANUARY 1~ 1960 AND JULY 1~ 1962 BE GIVEN A 5~ INCREASE. ALL INCREASES TO BE EFFECTIVE JULY 1~ 1962. THE COST OF THIS INCREASE WILL AMOUNT TO ~)~070o28 PER YEAR. AS YOU WILL NOTE FROM THE ATTACHED LIST OF RETIRED EMPLOYEES THAT SOME RECEIVE ONLY A VERY SMALL AMOUNT FROM THE CITY. THIS IS CAUSED BY THE FACT THAT AN EMPLOYEE IN THE LOWER INCOME BRACKET RECEIVES A HIGHER PERCENTAGE OF SOCIAL SECURITY BASED ON HIS EARNINGS THAN DOES THE PERSON IN THE HIGHER INCOME BRACKET. i SUGGEST THAT A COMMITTEE SHOULD BE APPOINTED TO CONSIDER WHETHER OR NOT THE RETIREMENT ORDINANCE SHOULD BE AMENDED SO AS TO ESTABLISH A MINIMUM AMOUNT OF PAY TO BE PAID BY THE CITY.
