At the September 8, 2016 Board of Trustees meeting, pursuant to the authority granted under Section 9.01(i) of the Combined Pension Plan (the “Plan”), the Board amended Section 6.14(d) of the Plan to remove the provision allowing for Members still in Active Service to transfer amounts from the Member’s DROP account to the City of Dallas’ defined contribution plan. This action was taken to ensure that the Plan remains qualified under the Internal Revenue Code and is effective immediately.
