DESCRIPTION



The Retirement Board of the Kansas City Police Civilian Employees' Retirement System is required to appoint any member as a special consultant. The member must meet specific criteria which include: (1) a retirement status effective on or before August 28, 2003; (2) receiving retirement benefits; and (3) having applied to the board.



The bill requires a funeral benefit of $1,000 to be paid in addition to all other benefits for this member. Proper proof of death is required before the benefit is paid.



This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental space.
