Agendas & Minutes

The City of Show Low offers Public Safety Personnel Retirement System (PSPRS) benefits to our public safety employees and are responsible for forming a local board to assist in the administration of plan provisions.

 Local boards consist of five members who also appoint a secretary and a legal counsel. While formed at the employer level, this board is a legal entity separate from the employer and plan members.

 Local boards determine the eligibility of prospective members, make decisions on disability and line of duty death benefit applications, and use discretion to consider return-to-work eligibility for retired plan members.

 Local boards share fiduciary responsibilities with the PSPRS Board of Trustees, meaning they are legally and ethically required to act in the best interest of system members, beneficiaries and the plan itself. Local boards must act fairly and in good faith, avoid conflicts of interest, incur only reasonable expenses, and adhere to all applicable state laws.

 As political subdivisions under state law, local boards are public entities responsible for abiding by state open meeting laws and statutes and court rules concerning legal appeals of eligibility and benefit determinations. Local boards and employers are also subject to auditing and operational reviews from PSPRS, which also bears responsibility for ensuring compliance with state law and federal requirements for tax-qualified retirement plans.
