CITY OF TALLAHASSEE PENSION PLAN FOR GENERAL EMPLOYEES CHAPTER 112.664, F.S. COMPLIANCE REPORT IN CONNECTION WITH THE OCTOBER 1, 2017 FUNDING ACTUARIAL VALUATION REPORT AND THE PLAN S FINANCIAL REPORTING FOR THE YEAR ENDING SEPTEMBER 30, 2017
July 23, 2018 Board of Trustees Pension Plan for the City of Tallahassee Tallahassee, Florida Dear Board Members: Gabriel, Roeder, Smith & Company (GRS) has been engaged by the City of Tallahassee Pension Plan for General Employees (Plan) to prepare a disclosure report to satisfy the requirements set forth in Ch. 112.664, F.S. and as further required pursuant to Ch. 60T1.0035, F.A.C. This report was prepared at the request of the City and is intended for use by the Retirement System and those designated or approved by the City. This report may be provided to parties other than the System only in its entirety and only with the permission of the City. The purpose of the report is to provide the required information specified in Ch. 112.664, F.S. as well as supplement this information with additional exhibits. This report should not be relied on for any purpose other than the purpose described above. For financial reporting purposes under GASB 67, the liabilities were rolled forward from October 1, 2016 to the measurement date, September 30, 2017. The liabilities for this purpose were based on the October 1, 2016 Actuarial Valuation report dated March 13, 2017. The findings in this report are based on data or other information through September 30, 2017. Future actuarial measurements may differ significantly from the current measurements presented in this report due to such factors as the following: plan experience differing from that anticipated by the economic or demographic assumptions; changes in economic or demographic assumptions; increases or decreases expected as part of the natural operation of the methodology used for these measurements (such as the end of an amortization period or additional cost or contribution requirements based on the plan s funded status); and changes in plan provisions or applicable law. The scope of this engagement does not include an analysis of the potential range of such measurements. This report was based upon information furnished by the City and the Plan Administrator concerning Retirement Plan benefits, financial transactions, plan provisions and active members, terminated members, retirees and beneficiaries. We checked for internal and yeartoyear consistency, but did not otherwise audit the data. We are not responsible for the accuracy or completeness of the information provided by the City and Plan Administrator. Except as otherwise indicated as required for the disclosures contained herein, this report was prepared using certain assumptions selected by the Board as described in our October 1, 2017 Actuarial Valuation report. This report is also based on the Plan Provisions, census data, and financial information as summarized in our October 1, 2017 Actuarial Valuation report. Please refer to the October 1, 2017
Board of Trustees Pension Plan for the City of Tallahassee July 23, 2018 Page ii Actuarial Valuation report, dated June 5, 2018, and the GASB No. 67 actuarial disclosure report, dated March 1, 2018, for summaries and descriptions of this information. The use of an investment return assumption that is 2% higher than the investment return assumption used to determine the funding requirements does not represent an estimate of future Plan experience nor does it reflect an observation of future return estimates inherent in financial market data. The use of this investment return assumption is provided as a counterpart to the Chapter 112.664, Florida Statutes requirement to utilize an investment return assumption that is 2% lower than the assumption used to determine the funding requirements. The inclusion of the additional exhibits showing the effect of using a 2% higher investment return assumption shows a more complete assessment of the range of possible results as opposed to showing a onesided range as required by Florida Statutes. Peter N. Strong and Jeffrey Amrose are members of the American Academy of Actuaries and meet the Qualification Standards of the American Academy of Actuaries to render the actuarial opinions contained herein. The signing actuaries are independent of the plan sponsor. This report has been prepared by actuaries who have substantial experience valuing public employee retirement systems. To the best of our knowledge the information contained in this report is accurate and fairly presents the actuarial position of the Retirement Plan as of the valuation date. All calculations have been made in conformity with generally accepted actuarial principles and practices, with the Actuarial Standards of Practice issued by the Actuarial Standards Board and with applicable statutes. With respect to the reporting standards for defined benefit retirement plans or systems contained in Section 112.664(1) F.S., the actuarial disclosures required under this section were prepared and completed by us or under our direct supervision, and we acknowledge responsibility for the results. To the best of our knowledge, the results are complete and accurate, and in our opinion, meet the requirements of Section 112.664(1), F.S. and Section 60T1.0035, F.A.C.
