Pete Reagan: Mr. Chairman, I just got off the phone with him and his accountant is out of town
again. I asked him to provide us with some kind of documentation from his accountant or from
the State of Arkansas for the next meeting and he promised that he would.

Kit Williams: Was this the fun thing I got to read? I have a copy of this bill from Arkansas if
you would like to see it.
Pete Reagan: We got a copy of it Kit.
Kit Williams: Did I give you a copy of that.
Pete Reagan: Yes. 1484.
Kit Williams: It said nothing that we needed to hear Mayor. It was about other technical
changes to the Arkansas Income Tax Act. It talked about health savings accounts but not
premium payments and how they would be done.
Mayor Coody: It doesn't have any bearing on this issue.
Kit Williams: Not on this issue.
Pete Reagan: This is what the Arkansas Municipal League, Don Zimmerman, put out that is
affecting us.
Kit Williams: I couldn't figure out how it could.
Pete Reagan: Unless we had a health savings account then it would.
Kit Williams: I don't know if even the health savings account would.
Pete Reagan: No, it doesn't affect us.
Kit Williams: It might affect active duty.
Mayor Coody: What kind of response did you get to the email you sent out to everybody?
Pete Reagan: I have received very few responses. I have two people including myself that are
interested in it. The email has been out for about three weeks. I think we should let it go for
awhile and see if anything else comes in. Letters were sent out by Pat Boudrey, who is our
Firemen's Pension and Relief Fund

secretary for the retirees, to those folks that don't have email addresses. I think we should put
that on the agenda for the next meeting.
Mayor Coody: So table this?
Kit Williams: I looked at Section 33 of that act. Basically it was adopting federal rules saying
that you can deduct health savings accounts not only for Federal income tax purposes but also for
State income purposes.
Pete Reagan moved to table Pension Protection Act to the September meeting. Marshall E.
Mahan seconded the motion. Upon roll call the motion passed 4-0. Gene Warford, Ronnie

New Business:
Stephens Inc. — Informational
Amber Wood: Sondra provided a copy of a memo from Stephens, Inc in your packet. It is just
an informational item.
Pete Reagan: This is from Larry Middleton who is the advisor for LOPFI. He is an investment
advisor for all the investors for LOPFI. I read this and basically what he is doing is giving us the
status of new legislation that was passed dealing with old pension funds.
Kit Williams: Is there anything in there that we need to look at?
Pete Reagan: No, other than it sounds like to me that he would like to come up and give us his
sales pitch.
Kit Williams: I don't think we can unless you're going to open it up and do an RFQ for
everybody to come back again.

Pete:
Dennis asked me to send you an e-mail to give you an update on the tax situation with the state of
Arkansas. Jerry and I spoke with a state auditor, Amanda Johnson, last week who has reassured us that
this matter can be resolved. She said that she had spoken with other auditors in her area who all agree. I
have sent her the information we originally sent the IRS concerning the retirement— doctor's letters. I also
had to send her proof that the IRS did not change his tax return and that he did receive his full refund in
2005 and 2006. She said that if I could provide that proof, she would make the correction to the changes
the state made and get the levy release and his 2005 refund. She said also that they follow the federal
code on tax cases. In other words, if the IRS agrees they follow suit. We haven't filed his 2006 due to all
the problems with 2005 and the state reopening 2003-2004. She will send Dennis a letter of change in 30-
45 days. She is hoping to get everything resolved sooner than later.
She and I spoke for a long time on this matter and she made the comment that if the 1099 is not
changed Dennis will have this tax problem every year, which is crazy. Please table the discussion
concerning Dennis until we can get the information from the state that we need to show that it is OK to
change his retirement. If proof that the IRS gave him his full refund and if the state is going to do the
same, I am not sure what else it is going to take to get this changed. Let me know if there is something
else we can do. Thank you.
