Trustees approved the consent docket, ratified prior approvals, approved claims and multiple service-retirement and death-benefit items, and adopted a resolution honoring longtime employee Doug Dowler, who will retire Dec. 4, 2025.
The board approved a series of routine administrative and benefit items during its Nov. 13 meeting, including the consent docket, ratification of two prior approvals, the claims docket, multiple applications for service retirement, and authorizations to pay $5,000 death benefits and continue pensions to surviving spouses where listed.
Chairman Bronson introduced a resolution of appreciation for Doug Dowler, noting Dowler will retire as Assistant Finance Director on Dec. 4, 2025. The secretary read the resolution and trustees voted to approve it. "Doug, as you can see, is not with us this morning. He is traveling," the chair said; the board agreed staff will ensure Dowler receives the signed copy.
All consent and benefit items were moved, seconded and approved with no extended debate recorded in the transcript.
