The City of Sarasota provides three single-employer, defined
benefit retirement systems, one for Police
Officers one for Firefighters
and one for General Employees.
Assets are held separately and may be used only for the payment
of benefits to the members of the respective plans.
The Pension Plans are governed by Chapter 24 of the Code of

Police Officers, Firefighters, General
Employees), the Internal Revenue Code and Florida
Statutes. Each Plan is administered by a Board of Trustees
that acts as the named fiduciary of the Fund.
In addition to the Pension Plans, the City of Sarasota provides
the opportunity for all employees to participate in a Deferred
Compensation program. Established under Section 457 of the
Internal Revenue Code, Deferred Compensation programs allow
employees to contribute a portion of their salary and invest
it tax deferred until retirement or termination.
The City provides participation with three companies. To
