Oakland Police and Fire Retirement System Board Membership and Meeting Frequency Charter Amendment
Plain-English Summary
This measure proposes changes to the Oakland Police and Fire Retirement System (PFRS) Board. It would expand the pool of eligible candidates for board membership and adjust the required frequency of board meetings.
What each outcome does
If Measure D passes, the PFRS Board would have a larger pool of candidates for police and fire representative seats, including non-retirees if no retirees are available. It would also allow insurance executives and senior bankers with prior experience in those roles to serve, expanding eligibility for those seats. Board meetings would be required no less than quarterly, rather than monthly.
If Measure D fails, the current rules for the PFRS Board would remain in effect. Board membership would continue to be limited to PFRS retirees for certain seats, and specific professional roles would require current employment. Board meetings would continue to be held monthly.
