11. Police Services Pension Transfer D
No. 12
Moved by Councillor Renaud
Seconded by Councillor Patenaude AND RESOLVED THAT Whereas police officers who
transferred from local police services to the Ontario Provincial Police were advised that
there would be no negative effect on their pensions as a result of their transfer;
/aftN And whereas approximately 500-600 police officers from local police services that
transferred to the Ontario Provincial Police by contract have seen their pension benefits
affected detrimentally to the extent that transferred officers with comparable service will
receive $500 - $1,000 less pension per month than O.P.P. officers;
And whereas members of police services, whether local forces or O.P.P., put their lives
on the line every day to protect the citizens of our municipalities, and all police officers
should be entitled to comparable pension benefits for comparable length of service;
Now therefore the Council of the Town of Tillsonburg hereby requests the Province of
Ontario to move forward expeditiously to find a solution to the pension disparity of local
police service members who transferred to the Ontario Provincial Police by contract;
And further that this resolution be circulated to our local MPP.
