Farren Says Pension Snafu Requires Answers


Bill Farren reacting to word a clause to permit high earners to retire earlier with full benefits recently flagged by Deputy Mayor Stephen Chase will be removed in the package before the Superintendent of Pensions. 

City manager Pat Woods says it was part of an early draft of the reforms.

Farren tells CHSJ News with an issue as big as this we have to make sure all the t's are crossed and the i's are dotted.

He wonders what was put in that shouldn't be there and what wasn't included that should be there adding it raises a lot of questions.

Farren says he hopes the new council can deal with the issues.
