Retirement Fund board election results
Nominations for the Retirement Fund’s Board of Trustees closed June 9. This year, three seats were up for election. Results:
Place 2, representing active Civil Service Fire employees: The only member who received the necessary nominations to qualify for the ballot was the current trustee, Stephen Stegint. Since no other member received enough nominations, no election is needed and Stephen will remain the trustee.
Place 4, representing active General Employees in Group D: two members received the necessary nominations to qualify for the ballot: Christopher Roden and Andrea Wright. Election results will be announced when available.
Place 6, representing members of Retiree Group A, retired Civil Service Police: The current trustee, Michael Baggott, was the only member who received the necessary nominations to qualify for the ballot. Michael also will retain his seat without an election.
