PLEASE READ AND SHARE!!!

To all the Hallandale Beach Fire Merger members:

You should have, or will receive a “Ballot Election” for your pension. This email will outline if you are going into your municipal drop or electing to go into the FRS. 

One section will state the following:

City of Hallandale Beach’s retirement plan DROP Employees.

If you are currently in the City of Hallandale Beach’s DROP Plan and you elect to remain in the City of Hallandale Beach’s DROP plan, you are not eligible to join FRS until you exit DROP.  You do not need to complete a ballot at this time, please just sent me an email advising that you are going to remain in the City of Hallandale Beach’s DROP Plan.

If you are currently in the City of Hallandale Beach’s DROP Plan and you elect to terminate your participation in the City of Hallandale Beach’s DROP plan and begin to participate in the FRS, you will need to complete a ballot and select the third option. 

WE STRONGLY URGE YOU TO APPLY TO THE FRS IF THIS APPLIES TO YOU! 

If the FRS denies your entry, please contact your union eboard ASAP. We have a pension attorney overseeing this process for you!
