Short description: PEN CD-CHGO POL-DUTY DISAB Synopsis of Bill as introduced: Amends the Chicago Police Article of the Illinois Pension Code. Increases the duty disability benefit to 75% of the current salary attached from time to time to the rank held by the policeman at the time of removal from the police department payroll; makes this change retroactive to January 1, 2001. Increases the child's duty disability and occupational disease disability pension to $100; makes this change retroactive to January 1, 2000. Amends the State Mandates Act to require implementation without reimbursement. Effective immediately. PENSION NOTE (Pension Laws Commission) According to an analysis prepared by the Fund's actuary (based on 12/31/98 membership data), the estimated increase in accrued liability due to HB 1861 is $141.5 million. The increase in normal cost is estimated to be $3.1 million and the annual payment needed to amortize the estimated increase in the accrued liability over 40 years is $7.0 million. Therefore, the estimated first year cost of HB 1861 is $10.1 million, or 1.38% of payroll. As payroll grows, the annual cost will increase commensurate with payroll.
