Human Resources & Communications Agenda Item #: 7d
AGENDA ITEM WORDING: Approve Federal Flood Insurance with Wright
National Flood Insurance Company through Gehring Group, Inc.
REQUESTED ACTION: Informational Item Only DISCUSSION: Federal Flood
insurance participation is required by the Federal Emergency
Management Association (FEMA) to meet requirements for disaster
reimbursement. The maximum policy limit is $1 Million per location
($500,000.00 for the building and $500,000.00 for contents) with a
$5,000.00 deductible per location. The cost for policy year June
14, 2018 through June 14, 2019 is $159,132.00, which is an increase
of $14,911.00 or 10.3%. The attached schedule shows the building
coverage, contents coverage and annual premium for each location.
The overall increase is a reflection of national flood re-mapping
recently completed and adopted by the NFIP and the changes to flood
policy rates as a result of the flood damage throughout the U.S.
from the 2017 hurricane season. The Transmission & Distribution
Building and Big Coppitt Control Building reflect not-to-exceed
premium estimates because their actual premium costs won’t be
available until after the board meeting agenda submission deadline.
The National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) remains the sole source
for flood insurance for most properties located in Monroe County.
The Gehring Group will continue to seek out all available options
in the Flood Insurance market in order to identify and present
possible alternative sources for this necessary coverage. FINANCIAL

AGENDA ITEM WORDING: Approve Update to Hiring Replacements for
Pending Retirements Policy REQUESTED ACTION: Motion to Approve the
Updated Hiring Replacements for Pending Retirements Policy
DISCUSSION: During the Strategic Planning workshop in 2016, the
Utility Board discussed the number of KEYS employees who would
become eligible for retirement in the next five years. The Board
specifically identified Goal #3 as Maintain a highly effective
workforce and foster a positive working environment and Strategy
#3.1 Develop and Implement a plan regarding the aging workforce and
pending retirements. On October 24, 2017 the Utility Board adopted
the policy – Hiring Replacements for Pending Retirements – granting
the General Manager & CEO the authority to temporarily increase
the headcount under specific circumstances to specifically allow
for a period of overlap between a retiring/resigning employee and
his/her successor. Staff has identified a need to update the policy
to grant the General Manager & CEO authority to increase the
headcount by one for up to fifteen months to address anticipated
vacancies that could create an undue hardship in any
section/department. SUPPORTS STRATEGIC PLAN: Goal #3: Maintain a
highly effective workforce and foster a positive working
environment; Strategy #3.1 Develop and Implement a plan regarding
the aging workforce and pending retirements. FINANCIAL IMPACT
Total Cost: TBD Budgeted:
Keys Energy Services Hiring Replacements for Pending
Retirements
Background KEYS Strategic Plan for 2017 & 2018 has a Goal:
Maintain a highly effective workforce and foster a positive working
environment; further it includes a strategy: Develop and implement
a plan regarding the aging workforce and pending retirements.
Approximately one third of KEYS entire workforce will be eligible
for retirement between 2017 and 2022. This policy is designed to
ease the transition between a retiring employee and the
replacement. As part of the Utility Board’s Annual Budget approval,
an authorized headcount is established. The General Manager &
CEO does not exceed the authorized number of budgeted positions
without Utility Board approval. Policy This policy authorizes the
General Manager & CEO to temporarily increase the authorized
number of budgeted positions without Utility Board action for the
specific purpose of preparing for a known, pending vacancy when
needed. Requirements: The policy can be used when:
1) An employee has submitted a retirement/resignation notice with a
specific date which has been approved by the General Manager and
CEO and that employee’s position (or a new position) will be
filled.
2) The new hire must be placed in an existing position with an
approved salary scale.
3) The temporary increase in position(s) cannot increase the
overall headcount by more than 10% of the Utility Board
budgeted/authorized headcount.
4) No position should be filled more than four months prior to the
retirement day unless there is an extenuating circumstance as
determined by the General Manager & CEO.
Criteria When filling a position that will become vacant due to a
pending retirement or resignation, the General Manager & CEO
will consider the following issues:
o Number of employees in the classification o Number of apprentices
close to completing apprenticeship o Length of time required for a
new employee to become functional in the
position o Difficulty in hiring a qualified individual
Keys Energy Services Hiring Replacements for Pending
Retirements
To aid in determining an appropriate length of overlap of time
between the current employee and employee being hired to replace
the retiring/resigning employee, the following scale will be used:
Overlap of no more than four months 17-20 points Overlap of no more
than two months 13-16 points Overlap of no more than one month 9-12
points Overlap of no more than 2 weeks 0-8 points
1) How many positions are within this classification? 1 5 points
2-3 3 points 4 or more 1 point
2) How difficult is this position to recruit? Difficult 5 points
Normal 3 points Easy 1 point
3) How long does it take for a new employee to become reasonably
functional in
this position? > 6 months 5 points 2-6 months 3 points <2
months 1 point
4) For positions that have an apprenticeship program, how many
journeyman positions in the classification are filled?
< 50% 5 points 51-74% 3 points >75% 1 point OR For positions
that do not have an apprenticeship program, does this position
require significant experience, education, certification or
completion of a multi-year apprenticeship? Yes (more than 3 years)
5 points Yes (less than 3 years) 3 points No 1 point
Keys Energy Services Hiring Replacements for Pending
Retirements
This policy is established to keep workforce levels appropriate and
to provide adequate time for departing employees to assist in
training new employees. In addition to the Requirements and
Criteria set forth above, this policy further grants the General
Manager & CEO authority to increase the overall headcount by
one position for up to fifteen months to address anticipated
vacancies that could create an undue hardship in any given
section/department. Use of the policy is at the General Manager’s
discretion. The policy does not create any requirement to post and
fill positions. Revision History Issue Number Reason for issue

REQUESTED ACTION: Motion to Accept Actuarial Valuation Report as of
January 1, 2018, and Approve the Pension Contribution Percentage of
44.3%. DISCUSSION: The attached Actuarial Valuation Report as of
January 1, 2018, calculates a minimum payment for the calendar year
of 2018 of $4,079,176.00 or 44.3% of covered payroll compared to
$3,946,896.00 or 40.8% of covered payroll in the prior year. The
level percentage of payroll method is used to determine this
calculation. During 2017:
the plan experienced an actuarial gain of $628,492.00 pay increases
averaged 5.5% compared to an assumption of 5.6% member turnover was
20% of expected turnover investments had a smoothed actuarial value

James Street Key West, Florida 33041-6100 Re: Retirement System for
General Employees of the Utility Board of the City of Key West Dear
Trustees: We are pleased to present our January 1, 2018 Actuarial
Valuation Report for the Retirement System for General Employees of
the Utility Board of the City of Key West (System). The purpose of
this Report is to indicate appropriate contribution levels, comment
on the actuarial stability of the System and to satisfy State
requirements. Gabriel, Roeder, Smith & Company (GRS), as System
actuary, is authorized by the Board of Trustees to prepare an
annual actuarial valuation under Section 8.04(f) of the System.
This Report consists of this commentary, detailed Tables I through
XV, the State Required Exhibit on Table XVI and a Glossary on Table
XVII. The Tables contain basic System cost figures plus significant
details on the benefits, liabilities and experience of the System.
We suggest you thoroughly review the Report at your convenience and
contact us with any questions that may arise. Pension System Costs
The minimum payment consists of payment of annual normal costs and
amortization of the components of the unfunded actuarial accrued
liability over various periods as prescribed by law. The minimum
payment for fiscal year ending December 31, 2018 is 44.3%
($4,079,176) of covered payroll. The figure in parentheses is the
System cost expressed as the percentage of covered annual payroll
applied to projected covered payroll as of January 1, 2018
($9,210,384). Changes in Actuarial Assumptions, Methods and System
Benefits System benefits remain unchanged from the System benefits
considered for the January 1, 2017 Actuarial Impact Statement.
System benefits are summarized on Table IX. The actuarial
assumptions and methods are unchanged from the January 1, 2017
Actuarial Valuation and Actuarial Impact Statement. The actuarial
assumptions and methods are outlined on Table X.
Board of Trustees April 5, 2018 Page Two
Comparison of January 1, 2017 Actuarial Impact Statement and
January 1, 2018 Valuation Results Table II of our Report provides
information of a comparative nature. The right columns of the Table
indicate the costs as calculated for the January 1, 2017 Actuarial
Impact Statement. The left columns indicate the costs as calculated
for January 1, 2018. Comparing the left and right columns of Table
II shows the effect of System experience during the year. The
number of active participants and covered payroll decreased by
approximately 7% and 5%, respectively. Total normal cost decreased
both as a percentage of covered payroll and as a dollar amount. The
minimum funding requirement increased both as a percentage of
covered payroll and as a dollar amount. The unfunded actuarial
accrued liability increased as a percentage of covered payroll but
decreased as a dollar amount. The present value of vested accrued
benefits exceeds the market value of System assets. The Vested
Benefit Security Ratio is 85.1%. This is an increase from 78.7% as
of the January 1, 2017 Actuarial Impact Statement. The Vested
Benefit Security Ratio is based upon the market value of assets.
Table VII provides figures on recent System payroll growth
experience. Recent System covered payroll growth experience
indicates actual payroll growth averaged approximately 0.0%
annually for the ten (10) fiscal years ended December 31, 2017. The
payroll growth assumption is 3.0%, not in excess of the ten (10)
year average annual payroll growth assumption. The cap on payroll
growth assumption is provided under Florida Statute. The decrease
in payroll growth assumption from 1.5% to 0.0% increased current
year amortization payments. Actuarial Gains / (Losses) The System
experienced an actuarial gain of $628,492 for 2017. Our Actuarial
Valuation Report tracks the actual experience in three areas that
are very significant in determining whether a gain or loss occurs.
Table XIV presents compensation experience, tracks employee
turnover and provides information on investment return. Table XIV
provides statistics on increases in pay enjoyed by active System
Members. During 2017, pay increases to active Members averaged
5.5%. Pay increases were slightly below the average pay increase
assumption of 5.6%. This suggests pay increases were generally a
source of actuarial gain this year. Three, five and ten-year
average annual pay increases are 5.7%, 4.5% and 4.7%, respectively.
In addition, Table XIV provides statistics for active System
Members terminating service in comparison to the number of active
System Members who were assumed to terminate under the withdrawal
assumptions. Member turnover was 20% of expected turnover during
2017. This suggests employee turnover was generally an offsetting
source of actuarial loss this year. Three,
Board of Trustees April 5, 2018 Page Three
five and ten-year average termination experience is 40%, 60% and
60% of expected turnover, respectively. Table XIV also provides
comparative statistics on the investment experience for the System.
During 2017, the System experienced a smoothed investment return of
approximately 8.6%. Smoothed investment return exceeded the 7.5%
anticipated rate of return. Smoothed investment return was an
additional source of actuarial gain this year. The average smoothed
actuarial value rate of return over the last three, five and
ten-years is 8.1%, 9.5% and 6.0%, respectively. The corresponding
one, three, five and ten-year average market value rates of return
are 15.8%, 7.0%, 9.3% and 6.3%, respectively. Member Census and
Financial Data
The Utility Board submitted the Member census data as of January 1,
2018 used for this valuation to us. This information contains name,
Social Security number, date of birth, date of hire, current rate
of pay and actual salary paid in 2017. Dates of termination and
retirement are provided where applicable. The Utility Board updated
information on inactive participants including retirees,
beneficiaries and vested terminees. Name, Social Security number
and January 1, 2018 monthly benefit payment were provided for these
members. The Utility Board also supplied information on the assets
of the System as of December 31, 2017. We do not audit the Member
census data and asset information that is provided to us; however,
we perform certain reasonableness checks. The System is responsible
for the accuracy of the data. Summary In our opinion the benefits
currently provided for under the System will be sufficiently funded
through the payment of the amount as indicated in this and future
Actuarial Valuation Reports. We will continue to update you on the
future payment requirements for the System through our actuarial
Reports. These Reports will also continue to monitor the future
experience of the System. The actuarial assumptions used in this
Actuarial Valuation are as adopted by the Board of Trustees. The
demographic actuarial assumptions are based on the results of an
actuarial experience study for the five-year period ended December
31, 2012. The mortality assumptions are prescribed by statute. Each
assumption represents an estimate of future System experience. We
recommend the Board authorize an Experience Study covering the five
year period January 1, 2013 – December 31, 2017. If all actuarial
assumptions are met and if all future minimum required
contributions are paid, System assets will be sufficient to pay all
System benefits, future contributions are expected to
Board of Trustees April 5, 2018 Page Four
remain relatively stable as a percentage of payroll and the funded
status of the System is expected to improve. System minimum
required contributions are determined in compliance with the
requirements of the Florida Protection of Public Employee
Retirement Benefits Act with normal cost determined as a level
percent of covered payroll and a level percent amortization payment
using an initial amortization period of 30 years. The Unfunded
Actuarial Accrued Liability (UAAL) may not be appropriate for
assessing the sufficiency of System assets to meet the estimated
cost of settling benefit obligations but may be appropriate for
assessing the need for or the amount of future contributions. The
UAAL would be different if it reflected the market value of assets
rather than the actuarial value of assets. The Unfunded Actuarial
Present Value of Vested Accrued Benefits and the corresponding
Vested Benefit Security Ratio may be appropriate for assessing the
sufficiency of System assets to meet the estimated cost of settling
benefit obligations but may not be appropriate for assessing the
need for or the amount of future contributions. The Unfunded
Actuarial Present Value of Vested Accrued Benefits and the
corresponding Vested Benefit Security Ratio are based upon the
market value of assets. The GASB Net Pension Liability and System
Fiduciary Net Position as a Percentage of Total Pension Liability
may not be appropriate for assessing the sufficiency of System
assets to meet the estimated cost of settling benefit obligations
but may be appropriate for assessing the need for or the amount of
future contributions. The GASB Net Pension Liability and System
Fiduciary Net Position as a Percentage of Total Pension Liability
are based upon the market value of assets. Future actuarial
measurements may differ significantly from the current measurements
presented in this Report due to such factors as the following:
System experience differing from that anticipated by the economic
or demographic assumptions; changes in economic or demographic
assumptions; increases or decreases expected as part of the natural
operation of the methodology used for these measurements (such as
the end of an amortization period); and changes in System
provisions or applicable law. Due to the limited scope of the
actuary’s assignment, the actuary did not perform an analysis of
the potential range of such future measurements. This Report should
not be relied on for any purpose other than the purpose described
in the primary communication. Determinations of the financial
results associated with the benefits described in this Report in a
manner other than the intended purpose may produce significantly
different results. This Report has been prepared by actuaries who

VII. Discount Rate (GASB No. 67 & No. 68)
A discount rate of 7.5% was used to measure the TPL. This discount
rate was based on the expected rate of return on System investments
of 7.5%. The projection of cash flows used to determine this
discount rate assumed member contributions will be made at the
current contribution rate and employer contributions will be made
at rates equal to the difference between actuarially determined
current contribution rates and the member contribution rate. Based
on these assumptions, the pension System's fiduciary net position
was projected to be available to make all projected future expected
benefit payments of current System members. Therefore, the
long-term expected rate of return on System investments was applied
to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the
TPL.
Assumption Changes 2017: Pre-retirement mortality was updated.
2016: Mortality rates updated. 2014: Investment return updated from
8.0% to 7.5%; withdrawal, salary increase and retirement rates
updated. 2009: Mortality, withdrawal, salary increase and
retirement rates updated; assumption for child beneficiaries added
for pre-retirement death benefits.
2017: Effective October 25, 2017 for Members under Career Average
Compensation and on January 1, 2020 for Members under Final Average
Compensation, Compensation means a Member’s base compensation
(hourly rate in effect each pay period multiplied by the
corresponding hours earned during that pay period). However,
Compensation shall not include overtime (except as necessary to not
penalize Members assigned to work 12-hour shifts), commissions,
bonuses, expense allowances and any hours that are considered leave
without pay. For Members under Final Average Compensation,
effective January 1, 2020, the average annual Compensation earned
by a Member during the highest 10,440 hours out of the last 20,880
hours of service (which shall be determined using the highest 130.5
payroll periods of the last 261 payroll periods) immediately
preceding termination of service or retirement. 2011: New benefit
structure added for employees hired on or after June 1, 2010
including career average earnings and 2.0% multiplier. 2009: Normal
retirement eligibility updated to attainment of age 60 and
completion of 10 years of credited service from attainment of age
60 if member enters System after November 13, 2008; pre-retirement
death benefit for child beneficiaries end date extended from 21
years of age to 25 years of age provided the child is a full-time
student in college or disabled under Social Security; actuarially
equivalent joint and survivor with pop-up optional form of payment
added.

F. Final Average Compensation:
The Utility Board shall contribute an amount which will be
determined annually by decision of the Utility Board.
Credited service is service performed subject to a maximum of 30
years. However, any member with more than 30 years of credited
service as of November 20, 1998 will be grandfathered under the
prior 35 year cap.
Final average compensation (FAC) equals the average annual
pensionable earnings earned during a period of the five highest
years out of the last ten years of service immediately preceding
retirement. Pensionable earnings are calculated using the member's
base hourly rate each pay period, multiplied by 80 hours, less any
hours that are considered leave without pay .
Effective January 1, 2020, FAC equals the average of the
pensionable earnings earned by a member during the highest 10,440
hours out of the last 20,880 hours of service (which shall be
determined using the highest 130.5 payroll periods of the last 261
payroll periods) immediately preceding termination of service or
retirement. Pensionable earnings are calculated using the member's
base hourly rate in effect each pay period, multiplied by the
corresponding hours earned during that pay period, less any hours
that are considered leave without pay or are otherwise excluded
from pensionable earnings.
