Under State of Illinois statues, each municipality in
Illinois of more than 5,000 population is required to administer its own Fire Pension Fund
through a Board of Trustees. Lake Forest’s Board was established by City ordinance in
1941.
The Board consists of eight members. The composition of
the Board is mandated by State laws. Three firemen are elected by Fund members, and one
fire department pensioner is elected to the Board by retired firemen currently receiving
pensions. The Mayor, City Clerk, City Treasures, and Fires Chief are members of the Board
ex-officio. The Board elected its own President. Term of office is three years.
The Fund is financed primarily through property tax levy,
with supplemental mandatory employee contributions.
The Board meets as needed.
