§ 58-5. Estimate of income for ensuing year; deficiencies.  


Latest version.
  • It shall be the duty of the trustees each year, prior to January 31, to prepare a full and detailed statement of the anticipated income of said Police Pension Fund for the ensuing fiscal year and the estimated amount which will be required to pay in full all pensions expected to be payable during such fiscal year and to certify the same to the Board of Police Commissioners. If such certificate shows an anticipated deficiency of income, it shall be the duty of the Board of Police Commissioners each year at the time of making up the departmental estimate, on or before the 31st day of January, to present the said certificate to the Board of Estimate and Apportionment, together with a statement of the amount of money required to enable the trustees to pay the said pensions in full, as certified to them. It shall be the duty of said Board of Estimate and Apportionment and of the Common Council to make an appropriation sufficient to provide for such deficiency, and the amount so appropriated shall be included in the annual appropriations and in the annual tax levies, and the Comptroller shall pay over the moneys so appropriated to the treasurer of the Police Pension Fund.
    In the event that the amount appropriated for deficiency of income in any fiscal year shall prove insufficient to enable the trustees to pay all pensions in full that shall be due and payable during said fiscal year, the trustees shall certify such fact to the Board of Estimate and Apportionment and the Common Council.
    In the event that the amount appropriated for deficiency of income in any fiscal year shall prove more than sufficient to enable the trustees to pay all pensions in full that shall be paid during said fiscal year, the treasurer of said pension fund shall retain such excess in the income account of said fund, and shall apply the same as income to the payment of pensions which shall become due and payable during the next succeeding fiscal year.
