Fire & Police Pension Board Commissioner
Election – Retired Police Member
On March 27, 2019, the Elections Division of the LA City Clerk’s Office will be mailing ballots to all retired police members of the Los Angeles Fire & Police Pension. The ballots will have the names of the retired police members seeking the position of Retired Police Commissioner. They must be received at the City Clerk’s Office by April 23, 2019.
The Board of Pension Commissioners has nine members. Five members are appointed by the Mayor. Two are elected by the active police and active fire members of the pension system. The final two are elected by the retired members of the fire and police. The elected commissioners serve a term of five years.
