Committee Member Jennifer Schwarz resigned in March 2016. The Council conducted a one-year review of ACOPS at a Study Session on May 26, 2016 and discussed the vacancy. It was decided to wait until the fall to consider appointing a replacement.
The Public Safety Personnel Retirement System Board (PSPRS) considers requests by officers for admission into public safety retirement system as well as requests for regular and disability retirements. The three citizen members are appointed by the Mayor and confirmed by the Council.
John Lomax resigned from the PSPRS Board in September 2016. He was appointed in 2015. The person appointed to fill the vacancy will fill out the remainder of the term which expires in 2019.
Mayor Collins will present his nominees to the Council and there will be an opportunity to interview the them and discuss the appointments.
