Fire Pension Relief Board September 10, 1984 Page Two Policy on Refund of Pension Funds In answer to some questions from Board members, Treasurer Linebaugh explained that refunds of pension funds can be made, according to State statutes, by the Treasurer, with no Board action necessary. Logue explained also that a withdrawal of the employee's portion of the funds can be made at any time. Fireman Dill stated he would like to know about refunds which have been made before others in the department find out. Linebaugh explained refund requests come to the Treasurer via the Fire Chief; that perhaps Logue could provide notification. One fireman reported that, in contacting Katherine Hinshaw, administrator at the State Pension office, he was told that the Board cannot withdraw moneys out of the Pension Fund. Linebaugh stated the City Attorney's opinion is that the refunds are refunds of contributions made, not refunds of "pension" funds.
