Annually a presentation of the Plan’s investment performance is made to the Page 4 City of Clearwater Draft Pension Trustees Meeting Minutes March 13, 2017 Trustees. For calendar 2016, the Plan realized an investment return of 6.63%, versus the plan’s assumed rate of 7.00%, and versus a customized benchmark of 7.32%, placing the plan in the 79th percentile of public pension plans per the Wilshire Public Plan Sponsor Universe. For the last three calendar years period, the plan had an annualized return of 5.42%, versus a benchmark of 5.74%, placing the plan in the 27th percentile of public plans. For the past five years, the plan had an annualized return of 9.48%, versus a benchmark of 8.93%, placing the plan in the 21st percentile of public plans. During calendar 2016, the Trustees approved a new infrastructure money manager, as well as the termination of an international equity money manager. The Pension Investment Committee continues to seek diversification and decreased volatility in investment returns for the Plan via alternative investment categories. In recent years, new categories introduced have included timber investments, core plus real estate, and infrastructure. A number of money managers underperformed their indexes during calendar 2016. The investment committee, with the assistance of the Plan’s investment consultant, CapTrust, closely monitors underperforming money managers and will continue to recommend terminations and replacements when appropriate. Finance Director Jay Ravins provided a PowerPoint presentation. In response to questions, Mr. Ravins said the total fund performance was 6.63%, which is under the 7% target. For the past five of ten years, the fund has outperformed. To some degree, the City's benchmark is customized to its asset allocation. Mr. Ravins said other plan portfolios include hedge funds as part of their benchmark; the City's portfolio does not include hedge funds and the reason why it is not part of its benchmark. CapTrust representative John Griffith said on December 31, 2016, the asset allocation was very close to target, the closest it has been. Mr. Ravins said despite the plan not meeting its benchmark target, the plan remains fully funded; the plan has been over 100% funded. 2017 investments are off to a good start, hitting the 7% assumption. Staff will know for certain if there is any impact to the City's budget next month when the actuary report is reviewed. Staff does not anticipate any budgetary impact since the overall performance was close to 7% and there are accumulated earnings from prior years.

Osceola Avenue Clearwater, FL 33756 File Number: ID#17-3372 Agenda Date: 4/17/2017 Status: Agenda ReadyVersion: 1 File Type: Action ItemIn Control: Pension Trustees Agenda Number: 4.1 SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION: Accept the January 1, 2017 Annual Actuarial Valuation for the Employees’ Pension Plan. SUMMARY: Per the actuary report dated January 1, 2017, a minimum city employer contribution of $8.65 million, or 10.91% of covered payroll, is required for fiscal year 2017. This is a decrease of $285,000 over the fiscal 2016 required contribution of $8.93 million, or 11.13% of covered payroll. The calendar year 2016 investment return was a gain of 6.70%, net of investment fees, versus the assumed rate of 7.0%. The five-year smoothed investment return based on the actuarial value of the assets was 8.22% versus the assumed rate of 7.0%. During calendar years 2012 through 2016, investment returns were 13.92%, 16.90%, 7.99%, (0.28%), and 6.70%, respectively. The plan experienced a net actuarial experience gain of $18.1 million for the year. The gain is primarily due to the actuarial gain from the actuarial investment return of 8.22% versus the assumption of 7.0%. The Plan's funded ratio at January 1, 2017 was 105.38% (including the credit balance) versus 102.92% for the prior year. The actuarial value of assets exceeds the market value of assets by $22.4 million as of January 1, 2017. The plan's credit balance, which reflects actual contributions in excess of actuarially required contributions for prior years, increased from $15.6 million to $19.4 million during calendar 2016. This $3.8 million increase was due to the City ’s budgeted overfunding of the fiscal 2017 required contribution. The City contributed approximately 15% of salaries, versus the actuarially required 11.13%, to increase the plan ’s credit balance reserves for future volatility in required contributions. The Employees’ Pension Plan is highly leveraged on investment returns in comparison to most pension plans, which means changes in investment earnings cause significant increases or decreases in required employer contributions. This year -to-year volatility necessitates building reserves, such as the plan ’s credit balance, during periods of positive investment earnings experience. This provides the City the ability to subsidize increased employer Page 1 City of Clearwater Printed on 4/13/2017 File Number: ID#17-3372 contributions during periods of negative investment earnings experience with contributions from accumulated reserves. Page 2 City of Clearwater Printed on 4/13/2017 CITY OF CLEARWATER EMPLOYEES’ PENSION PLAN ACTUARIAL VALUATION REPORT AS OF JANUARY 1, 2017 ANNUAL EMPLOYER CONTRIBUTION FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING SEPTEMBER 30, 2018 D R A F T D R A F T March 24, 2017 Board of Trustees City of Clearwater Employees’ Pension Plan Clearwater, Florida Dear Board Members: The results of the January 1, 2017 Annual Actuarial Valuation of the City of Clearwater Employees’ Pension Plan are presented in this report. The computed contribution rate shown on page 1 may be considered as a minimum contribution rate that complies with the Board’s funding policy. Users of this report should be aware that contributions made at that rate do not guarantee benefit security. Given the importance of benefit security to any retirement system, we suggest that contributions to the System in excess of those presented in this report be considered. The contribution rate in this report is determined using the actuarial assumptions and methods disclosed in Section B of this report. This report does not include an assessment of the risks of future experience not meeting the actuarial assumptions. Such an assessment of risks was outside the scope of this assignment. We encourage a review and assessment of investment and other significant risks that may have a material effect on the Plan’s financial condition. This report was prepared at the request of the Board and is intended for use by the Retirement System and those designated or approved by the Board. This report may be provided to parties other than the System only in its entirety and only with the permission of the Board. GRS is not responsible for unauthorized use of this report. The purposes of the valuation are to measure the System’s funding progress and to determine the employer contribution rate for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2018. This report should not be relied on for any purpose other than the purposes described herein. Determinations of financial results, associated with the benefits described in this report, for purposes other than those identified above may be significantly different. The findings in this report are based on data or other information through December 31, 2016. Future actuarial measurements may differ significantly from the current measurements presented in this report due to such factors as the following: plan experience differing from that anticipated by the economic or demographic assumptions; changes in economic or demographic assumptions; increases or decreases expected as part of the natural operation of the methodology used for these measurements (such as the end of an amortization period or additional cost or contribution requirements based on the plan’s funded status); and changes in plan provisions or applicable law. The scope of an actuarial valuation does not include an analysis of the potential range of such measurements. This valuation assumed the continuing ability of the plan sponsor to make the contributions necessary to fund this Plan. A determination regarding whether or not the plan sponsor is actually able to do so is outside our scope of expertise and was not performed. D R A F T The valuation was based upon information furnished by the City concerning Retirement System benefits, financial transactions, plan provisions and active members, terminated members, retirees and beneficiaries. We checked for internal and year-to-year consistency, but did not otherwise audit the data. We are not responsible for the accuracy or completeness of the information provided by the City. In addition, this report was prepared using certain assumptions approved by the Board and prescribed by the Florida Statutes as described in the section of this report entitled Actuarial Assumptions and Methods. The prescribed assumptions are the assumed mortality rates detailed in the Actuarial Assumptions and Methods section in accordance with Florida House Bill 1309 (codified in Chapter 2015-157). This report has been prepared by actuaries who have substantial experience valuing public employee retirement systems. To the best of our knowledge the information contained in this report is accurate and fairly presents the actuarial position of the Retirement System as of the valuation date. All calculations have been made in conformity with generally accepted actuarial principles and practices, with the Actuarial Standards of Practice issued by the Actuarial Standards Board and with applicable statutes. Peter N. Strong and Trisha Amrose are members of the American Academy of Actuaries. These actuaries meet the Academy’s Qualification Standards to render the actuarial opinions contained herein. The signing actuaries are independent of the plan sponsor. This actuarial valuation and/or cost determination was prepared and completed by me or under my direct supervision, and I acknowledge responsibility for the results. To the best of my knowledge, the results are complete and accurate. In my opinion, the techniques and assumptions used are reasonable, meet the requirements and intent of Part VII, Chapter 112, Florida Statutes, and are based on generally accepted actuarial principles and practices. There is no benefit or expense to be provided by the plan and/or paid from the plan’s assets for which liabilities or current costs have not been established or otherwise taken into account in the valuation. All known events or trends which may require a material increase in plan costs or required contribution rates have been taken into account in the valuation. Gabriel, Roeder, Smith & Company will be pleased to review this valuation and Report with the Board of Trustees and to answer any questions pertaining to the valuation.

The required employer contribution has been computed under the assumption that the amount to be received from the State on behalf of police officers and firefighters in 2017 and 2018 will be $12,000. If the actual payment from the State falls below this amount, then the City must increase its contribution by the difference. The actual Employer and State contributions during the year ending December 31, 2016 were $11,717,548 and $12,000, respectively, for a total of $11,729,548, compared to the required contribution of $8,944,103. The excess contribution of $2,785,445 was used to increase the credit balance. The minimum required City contribution is 7% of covered payroll. D R A F T 2 Revisions in Benefits There have been no revisions in benefits since the last valuation. Revisions in Actuarial Assumptions or Methods The mortality assumption for active members prior to retirement was revised in accordance with a revision to the active member pre-retirement mortality assumption used by the Florida Retirement System (FRS) in their July 1, 2016 Actuarial Valuation. No revisions were made to mortality rates applicable to retirees. Prior to this revision, pre-retirement mortality rates for active members were the same as the post- retirement rates for active members and retirees. This change was made in compliance with Florida House Bill 1309, which requires all public pension plans in Florida to use the same mortality tables used in either of the last two actuarial valuation reports of FRS effective January 1, 2016. A more detailed description can be found in the section of this report titled Actuarial Assumptions and Cost Method. As a result of the change in the pre-retirement mortality assumption, the required contribution increased by 0.11% of covered payroll, or $83,845. For informational purposes, if this year’s valuation had been completed using the mortality rates assumed prior to January 1, 2016 (the RP-2000 Combined Healthy Participant Mortality Table for males and females with mortality improvements projected with Scale BB) rather than the mortality rates mandated by the Florida Statutes, the required City contribution for FY 2018 would have been $8,885,377, or 11.21% of covered payroll, and the funded ratio (excluding the credit balance) as of January 1, 2017 would have been 102.74%. Actuarial Experience There was a net actuarial experience gain of $18,096,188 during the year, which means that actual experience was more favorable than expected. The gain is primarily due to a recognized investment return (on the smoothed actuarial value of assets) above the assumed rate of 7.0% and lower than expected salary increases. Although the investment return on the market value of assets was 6.70%, the investment return was 8.22% based on the actuarial value of assets, as previously unrecognized investment gains were phased in. In addition, actual average salary increases were 1.23%, compared to an expected average increase of 4.13%. Salary increases were lower than expected mainly because reported pensionable earnings for the year ending December 31, 2015 included 27 pay periods, whereas 26 pay periods are included in the D R A F T 3 reported pensionable earnings for the year ending December 31, 2016. An experience gain also resulted from retirement experience (there were 49 retirements during the year versus 60 expected). Mortality experience was a minor offsetting source of experience loss, as there were fewer retiree deaths during the year than expected (20 actual deaths with $498,746 in annual pensions versus 25 expected deaths with $708,907 in annual pensions). Under Chapter 112.66 of the Florida Statues, the annual payment to amortize the UAL may not reduce the contribution required to fund the Normal Cost. As a result, since the annual payment to amortize the UAL is below $0, the actuarial experience gain had no direct effect on the required employer contribution. Analysis of Change in Employer Contribution The components of change in the required City contribution are as follows: Contribution Rate Last Year 11.13 % Change in Benefits 0.00 Change in Assumptions and Methods 0.11 Amortization Payment on UAAL 0.00 Normal Cost (0.33) Experience Gain/Loss 0.00 Change in Administrative Expenses 0.01 Change in State Revenue (0.01) Contribution Rate This Year 10.91 Funded Ratio One measure of the Plan’s funding progress is the ratio of the actuarial value of assets to the actuarial accrued liability. Including the credit balance in the actuarial value of assets, the funded ratio is 105.38% this year compared to 102.92% last year. Not including the credit balance in the actuarial value of assets, the funded ratio is 103.17% this year compared to 101.10% last year. This funded ratio (not including the credit balance) was 103.21% before the change in the mortality assumption. Variability of Future Contribution Rates The Actuarial Cost Method used to determine the contribution rate is intended to produce contribution rates which are generally level as a percent of payroll. Even so, when experience differs from the assumptions, as it often does, the employer’s contribution rate can vary significantly from year-D R A F T 4 to-year. Over time, if the year-to-year gains and losses offset each other, the contribution rate would be expected to return to the current level, but this does not always happen. The Actuarial Value of Assets exceeds the Market Value of Assets by $22,413,724 as of the valuation date (see Section C). This difference will be phased in over the next few years in the absence of offsetting gains. If there are no experience losses and the return on the market value of assets is 7.0% in 2017 (net of investment expenses) as assumed, it is projected that the City contribution requirement as of January 1, 2018 for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2019 will remain in the range of approximately 10%-11% of covered payroll. Relationship to Market Value If Market Value had been the basis for the valuation, the City contribution rate would have remained at 10.91% of covered payroll (since the annual payment to amortize the UAL would have remained at $0 due to Chapter 112.66 of the Florida Statutes), and the funded ratio (excluding the credit balance) would have been 100.62%. The funded ratio based on the market value of assets (excluding the credit balance) last year was 100.09%.

Actuarial gains/(losses), as they occur, reduce (increase) the Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability. Financing of Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liabilities - Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liabilities (full funding credit if assets exceed liabilities) were amortized by level (principal & interest combined) dollar amount contributions over a reasonable period of future years. Actuarial Value of Assets - The Actuarial Value of Assets phase in the difference between the expected and actual return on market value of assets at the rate of 20% per year. The Actuarial Value of Assets will be further adjusted to the extent necessary to fall within the corridor whose lower limit is 80% of the Market Value of plan assets and whose upper limit is 120% of the Market Value of plan assets. During periods when investment performance exceeds the assumed rate, Actuarial Value of Assets will tend to be less than Market Value. During periods when investment performance is less than assumed rate, Actuarial Value of Assets will tend to be greater than Market Value. Valuation Assumptions The actuarial assumptions used in the valuation are shown in this Section. Both the economic and decrement assumptions were established following the Experience Study Report as of January 1, 2012 covering the five years ending December 31, 2011. Economic Assumptions The investment return rate assumed in the valuations is 7.00% per year, compounded annually (net rate after investment expenses). The Inflation Rate assumed in this valuation is 2.50% per year. The Inflation Rate is defined to be the expected long-term rate of increases in the prices of goods and services. The assumed real rate of return over inflation is defined to be the portion of total investment return that is more than the assumed inflation rate. Considering other economic assumptions, the 7.00% investment return rate translates to an assumed real rate of return over inflation of 4.50%. The rate of salary increase used for individual members can be seen in the tables below.

Annual administrative expenses are assumed to be equal to the administrative expenses of the previous year. Assumed administrative expenses are added to the Normal Cost. Benefit Service Exact fractional service is used to determine the amount of benefit payable. Cost of Living Increases The adjustment is 1.5% annually commencing on each April 1 for all retirees and beneficiaries who have received at least 6 monthly benefit payments. There is a five-year delay in the COLA for non- grandfathered non-hazardous duty members for benefits accrued after January 1, 2013. There is no COLA for non-grandfathered hazardous duty members for benefits accrued after January 1, 2013. Decrement Operation Disability and mortality decrements operate during retirement eligibility. Decrement Timing Decrements of all types are assumed to occur at the beginning of the year. Eligibility Testing Eligibility for benefits is determined based upon the age nearest birthday and service nearest whole year on the date the decrement is assumed to occur. Forfeitures For vested separations from service, it is assumed that 0% of members separating will withdraw their contributions and forfeit an employer financed benefit. It was further assumed that the liability at termination is the greater of the vested deferred benefit (if any) or the member’s accumulated contributions. Incidence of Contributions Employer contributions are assumed to be made in equal installments during the first two quarters of the fiscal year. Member contributions are assumed to be received continuously throughout the year based upon the computed percent of payroll shown in this report, and the actual payroll payable at the time contributions are made. Marriage Assumption 85% of males and 85% of females are assumed to be married for purposes of death-in-service benefits. Male spouses are assumed to be five years older than female spouses for all active members and for members who became inactive after January 1, 2009. For members who became inactive on or before January 1, 2009, spouses ages are based on the assumed beneficiary dates of birth provided by the prior actuary. D R A F T 27 Normal Form of Benefit The normal form of benefit is a life annuity for non-grandfathered non-hazardous duty members. For all other members, the normal form of benefit is a life annuity that includes a survivor benefit where after the participant’s death, 100% is payable to the spouse for five years, after which the benefit is reduced to 50%. Pay Increase Timing End of fiscal year. This is equivalent to assuming that reported pays represent the annual rate of pay on the valuation date. The pay used for the valuation is equal to the greater of the actual pay for the plan year increased by the salary scale assumption rate (which varies by years of service) and the annual rate of pay on the valuation date. Service Credit Accruals It is assumed that members accrue one year of service credit per year. D R A F T 28 GLOSSARY Actuarial Accrued Liability (AAL) The difference between the Actuarial Present Value of Future Benefits, and the Actuarial Present Value of Future Normal Costs. Actuarial Assumptions Assumptions about future plan experience that affect costs or liabilities, such as: mortality, withdrawal, disablement, and retirement; future increases in salary; future rates of investment earnings; future investment and administrative expenses; characteristics of members not specified in the data, such as marital status; characteristics of future members; future elections made by members; and other items. Actuarial Cost Method A procedure for allocating the Actuarial Present Value of Future Benefits between the Actuarial Present Value of Future Normal Costs and the Actuarial Accrued Liability. Actuarial Equivalent Of equal Actuarial Present Value, determined as of a given date and based on a given set of Actuarial Assumptions. Actuarial Present Value (APV) The amount of funds required to provide a payment or series of payments in the future. It is determined by discounting the future payments with an assumed interest rate and with the assumed probability each payment will be made. Actuarial Present Value of Future Benefits (APVFB) The Actuarial Present Value of amounts which are expected to be paid at various future times to active members, retired members, beneficiaries receiving benefits, and inactive, nonretired members entitled to either a refund or a future retirement benefit. Expressed another way, it is the value that would have to be invested on the valuation date so that the amount invested plus investment earnings would provide sufficient assets to pay all projected benefits and expenses when due. Actuarial Valuation The determination, as of a valuation date, of the Normal Cost, Actuarial Accrued Liability, Actuarial Value of Assets, and related Actuarial Present Values for a plan. An Actuarial Valuation for a governmental retirement system typically also includes calculations of the Funded Ratio and the Actuarially Determined Contribution (ADC). Actuarial Value of Assets The value of the assets as of a given date, used by the actuary for valuation purposes. This may be the market or fair value of plan assets or a smoothed value in order to reduce the year-to-year volatility of calculated results, such as the funded ratio and the Actuarially Determined Contribution (ADC). D R A F T 29 Actuarially Determined Contribution (ADC) The employer’s periodic required contributions, expressed as a dollar amount or a percentage of covered plan compensation. The ADC consists of the Employer Normal Cost and Amortization Payment. Amortization Method A method for determining the Amortization Payment. The most common methods used are level dollar and level percentage of payroll. Under the Level Dollar method, the Amortization Payment is one of a stream of payments, all equal, whose Actuarial Present Value is equal to the UAAL. Under the Level Percentage of Pay method, the Amortization Payment is one of a stream of increasing payments, whose Actuarial Present Value is equal to the UAAL. Under the Level Percentage of Pay method, the stream of payments increases at the rate at which total covered payroll of all active members is assumed to increase. Amortization Payment That portion of the plan contribution or ADC which is designed to pay interest on and to amortize the Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability. Amortization Period The period used in calculating the Amortization Payment. Closed Amortization Period A specific number of years that is reduced by one each year, and declines to zero with the passage of time. For example if the amortization period is initially set at 30 years, it is 29 years at the end of one year, 28 years at the end of two years, etc. Employer Normal Cost The portion of the Normal Cost to be paid by the employer. This is equal to the Normal Cost less expected member contributions. Equivalent Single Amortization Period For plans that do not establish separate amortization bases (separate components of the UAAL), this is the same as the Amortization Period. For plans that do establish separate amortization bases, this is the period over which the UAAL would be amortized if all amortization bases were combined upon the current UAAL payment. Experience Gain/Loss A measure of the difference between the normal cost rate from last year and the normal cost rate from this year. Funded Ratio The ratio of the Actuarial Value of Assets to the Actuarial Accrued Liability. Normal Cost The annual cost assigned, under the Actuarial Cost Method, to the current plan year. Open Amortization Period An open amortization period is one which is used to determine the Amortization Payment but which does not change over time. In other words, if the initial period is set as 30 years, the same 30-year period is used in determining the Amortization Period each year. In theory, if an Open Amortization Period is used to amortize the Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability, the UAAL will never completely disappear, but will become smaller each year, either as a dollar amount or in relation to covered payroll. D R A F T 30 Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability The difference between the Actuarial Accrued Liability and Actuarial Value of Assets. Valuation Date The date as of which the Actuarial Present Value of Future Benefits are determined. The benefits expected to be paid in the future are discounted to this date.

D R A F T GRSGabriel Roeder Smith & Company Consultants & Actuaries CITY OF CLEARWATER EMPLOYEES' PENSION PLAN 1111 ACTUARIAL VALUATION REPORT AS OF JANUARY 1, 2017 ANNUAL EMPLOYER CONTRIBUTION FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING SEPTEMBER 30, 2018 U n Q i GRS Retirement Consulting March 24, 2017 Board of Trustees City of Clearwater Employees' Pension Plan Clearwater, Florida U Plan are presented in this report. Dear Board Members: P: 954.527.1616 F: 954.525.0083 www.grsconsulting.com The results of the January 1, 2017 Annual Actuarial Valuation of the City of Clearwater Employees' Pension U U N U U U N U N U N N U N N U The computed contribution rate shown on page 1 may be considered as a minimum contribution rate that complies with the Board's funding policy. Users of this report should be aware that contributions made at that rate do not guarantee benefit security. Given the importance of benefit security to any retirement system, we suggest that contributions to the System in excess of those presented in this report be considered. The contribution rate in this report is determined using the actuarial assumptions and methods disclosed in Section B of this report. This report does not include an assessment of the risks of future experience not meeting the actuarial assumptions. Such an assessment of risks was outside the scope of this assignment. We encourage a review and assessment of investment and other significant risks that may have a material effect on the Plan's financial condition. This report was prepared at the request of the Board and is intended for use by the Retirement System and those designated or approved by the Board. This report may be provided to parties other than the System only in its entirety and only with the permission of the Board. GRS is not responsible for unauthorized use of this report. The purposes of the valuation are to measure the System's funding progress and to determine the employer contribution rate for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2018. This report should not be relied on for any purpose other than the purposes described herein. Determinations of financial results, associated with the benefits described in this report, for purposes other than those identified above may be significantly different. The findings in this report are based on data or other information through December 31, 2016. Future actuarial measurements may differ significantly from the current measurements presented in this report due to such factors as the following: plan experience differing from that anticipated by the economic or demographic assumptions; changes in economic or demographic assumptions; increases or decreases expected as part of the natural operation of the methodology used for these measurements (such as the end of an amortization period or additional cost or contribution requirements based on the plan's funded status); and changes in plan provisions or applicable law. The scope of an actuarial valuation does not include an analysis of the potential range of such measurements. This valuation assumed the continuing ability of the plan sponsor to make the contributions necessary to fund this Plan. A determination regarding whether or not the plan sponsor is actually able to do so is outside our scope of expertise and was not performed. U s The valuation was based upon information furnished by the City concerning Retirement System benefits, financial transactions, plan provisions and active members, terminated members, retirees and beneficiaries. We checked for internal and year -to -year consistency, but did not otherwise audit the data. We are not responsible for the accuracy or completeness of the information provided by the City. U Peter N. Strong and Trisha Amrose are members of the American Academy of Actuaries. These actuaries meet the Academy's Qualification Standards to render the actuarial opinions contained herein. In addition, this report was prepared using certain assumptions approved by the Board and prescribed by the Florida Statutes as described in the section of this report entitled Actuarial Assumptions and Methods. The prescribed assumptions are the assumed mortality rates detailed in the Actuarial Assumptions and Methods section in accordance with Florida House Bill 1309 (codified in Chapter 2015 -157). This report has been prepared by actuaries who have substantial experience valuing public employee retirement systems. To the best of our knowledge the information contained in this report is accurate and fairly presents the actuarial position of the Retirement System as of the valuation date. All calculations have been made in conformity with generally accepted actuarial principles and practices, with the Actuarial Standards of Practice issued by the Actuarial Standards Board and with applicable statutes. The signing actuaries are independent of the plan sponsor. This actuarial valuation and /or cost determination was prepared and completed by me or under my direct supervision, and I acknowledge responsibility for the results. To the best of my knowledge, the results are complete and accurate. In my opinion, the techniques and assumptions used are reasonable, meet the requirements and intent of Part VII, Chapter 112, Florida Statutes, and are based on generally accepted actuarial principles and practices. There is no benefit or expense to be provided by the plan and/or paid from the plan's assets for which liabilities or current costs have not been established or otherwise taken into account in the valuation. All known events or trends which may require a material increase in plan costs or required contribution rates have been taken into account in the valuation. Gabriel, Roeder, Smith & Company will be pleased to review this valuation and Report with the Board of Trustees and to answer any questions pertaining to the valuation.

The required employer contribution has been computed under the assumption that the amount to be received from the State on behalf of police officers and firefighters in 2017 and 2018 will be $12,000. If the actual payment from the State falls below this amount, then the City must increase its contribution by the difference. The actual Employer and State contributions during the year ending December 31, 2016 were 11,717,548 and $12,000, respectively, for a total of $11,729,548, compared to the required contribution of 8,944,103.

The required employer contribution has been computed under the assumption that the amount to be received from the State on behalf of police officers and firefighters in 2017 and 2018 will be $12,000. If the actual payment from the State falls below this amount, then the City must increase its contribution by the difference. The actual Employer and State contributions during the year ending December 31, 2016 were 11,717,548 and $12,000, respectively, for a total of $11,729,548, compared to the required contribution of 8,944,103. The excess contribution of $2,785,445 was used to increase the credit balance. The minimum required City contribution is 7% of covered payroll. GRS 2 Revisions in Benefits There have been no revisions in benefits since the last valuation. Revisions in Actuarial Assumptions or Methods The mortality assumption for active members prior to retirement was revised in accordance with a revision to the active member pre - retirement mortality assumption used by the Florida Retirement System FRS) in their July 1, 2016 Actuarial Valuation. No revisions were made to mortality rates applicable to retirees. Prior to this revision, pre - retirement mortality rates for active members were the same as the post- retirement rates for active members and retirees. This change was made in compliance with Florida House Bill 1309, which requires all public pension plans in Florida to use the same mortality tables used in either of the last two actuarial valuation reports of FRS effective January 1, 2016. A more detailed description can be found in the section of this report titled Actuarial Assumptions and Cost Method. As a result of the change in the pre- retirement mortality assumption, the required contribution increased by 0.11% of covered payroll, or $83,845. For informational purposes, if this year's valuation had been completed using the mortality rates assumed prior to January 1, 2016 (the RP -2000 Combined Healthy Participant Mortality Table for males and females with mortality improvements projected with Scale BB) rather than the mortality rates mandated by the Florida Statutes, the required City contribution for FY 2018 would have been 8,885,377, or 11.21% of covered payroll, and the funded ratio (excluding the credit balance) as of January 1, 2017 would have been 102.74 %. Actuarial Experience There was a net actuarial experience gain of $18,096,188 during the year, which means that actual experience was more favorable than expected. The gain is primarily due to a recognized investment return on the smoothed actuarial value of assets) above the assumed rate of 7.0% and lower than expected salary increases. Although the investment return on the market value of assets was 6.70 %, the investment return was 8.22% based on the actuarial value of assets, as previously unrecognized investment gains were phased in. In addition, actual average salary increases were 1.23 %, compared to an expected average increase of 4.13 %. Salary increases were lower than expected mainly because reported pensionable earnings for the year ending December 31, 2015 included 27 pay periods, whereas 26 pay periods are included in the Si GRS a I 3 IIreported pensionable earnings for the year ending December 31, 2016. An experience gain also resulted IIfrom retirement experience (there were 49 retirements during the year versus 60 expected). Mortality U experience was a minor offsetting source of experience loss, as there were fewer retiree deaths during the IIyear than expected (20 actual deaths with $498,746 in annual pensions versus 25 expected deaths with a$708,907 in annual pensions). RIUnder Chapter 112.66 of the Florida Statues, the annual payment to amortize the UAL may not N reduce the contribution required to fund the Normal Cost. As a result, since the annual payment to IIamortize the UAL is below $0, the actuarial experience gain had no direct effect on the required employer IIcontribution. Analysis of Change in Employer Contribution The components of change in the required City contribution are as follows: a Contribution Rate Last Year 11.13 % IN Change in Benefits 0.00 Change in Assumptions and Methods 0.11 IIAmortization Payment on UAAL 0.00 NI Normal Cost (0.33) Experience Gain/Loss 0.00 Change in Administrative Expenses 0.01 Change in State Revenue (0.01) Contribution Rate This Year 10.91 II Funded Ratio II II One measure of the Plan's funding progress is the ratio of the actuarial value of assets to the II actuarial accrued liability. Including the credit balance in the actuarial value of assets, the funded ratio is a105.38% this year compared to 102.92% last year. Not including the credit balance in the actuarial value of assets, the funded ratio is 103.17% this year compared to 101.10% last year. This funded ratio (not including the credit balance) was 103.21% before the change in the mortality assumption. Variability of Future Contribution Rates ISThe Actuarial Cost Method used to determine the contribution rate is intended to produce IIIcontribution rates which are generally level as a percent of payroll. Even so, when experience differs afrom the assumptions, as it often does, the employer's contribution rate can vary significantly from year - II 11 GRS 4 to -year. Over time, if the year -to -year gains and losses offset each other, the contribution rate would be expected to return to the current level, but this does not always happen. The Actuarial Value of Assets exceeds the Market Value of Assets by $22,413,724 as of the valuation date (see Section C). This difference will be phased in over the next few years in the absence of offsetting gains. If there are no experience losses and the return on the market value of assets is 7.0% in 2017 (net of investment expenses) as assumed, it is projected that the City contribution requirement as of January 1, 2018 for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2019 will remain in the range of approximately 10%-11% of covered payroll. Relationship to Market Value If Market Value had been the basis for the valuation, the City contribution rate would have remained at 10.91% of covered payroll (since the annual payment to amortize the UAL would have remained at $0 due to Chapter 112.66 of the Florida Statutes), and the funded ratio (excluding the credit balance) would have been 100.62 %. The funded ratio based on the market value of assets (excluding the credit balance) last year was 100.09 %.

Actuarial gains /(losses), as they occur, reduce (increase) the Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability. Financing of Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liabilities - Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liabilities (full funding credit if assets exceed liabilities) were amortized by level (principal & interest combined) dollar amount contributions over a reasonable period of future years. Actuarial Value of Assets - The Actuarial Value of Assets phase in the difference between the expected and actual return on market value of assets at the rate of 20% per year. The Actuarial Value of Assets will be further adjusted to the extent necessary to fall within the corridor whose lower limit is 80% of the Market Value of plan assets and whose upper limit is 120% of the Market Value of plan assets. During periods when investment performance exceeds the assumed rate, Actuarial Value of Assets will tend to be less than Market Value. During periods when investment performance is less than assumed rate, Actuarial Value of Assets will tend to be greater than Market Value. Valuation Assumptions The actuarial assumptions used in the valuation are shown in this Section. Both the economic and decrement assumptions were established following the Experience Study Report as of January 1, 2012 covering the five years ending December 31, 2011. Economic Assumptions The investment return rate assumed in the valuations is 7.00% per year, compounded annually (net rate after investment expenses). The Inflation Rate assumed in this valuation is 2.50% per year. The Inflation Rate is defined to be the expected long -term rate of increases in the prices of goods and services. The assumed real rate of return over inflation is defined to be the portion of total investment return that is more than the assumed inflation rate. Considering other economic assumptions, the 7.00% investment return rate translates to an assumed real rate of return over inflation of 4.50 %. The rate of salary increase used for individual members can be seen in the tables below. Part of the assumption is for merit and/or seniority increases and productivity increases, and 2.50% recognizes inflation, including price inflation and other macroeconomic forces. This assumption is used to project a member's current salary to the salaries upon which benefits will be based.

For females, the base mortality rates include a 100% white collar adjustment. For males, the base mortality rates include a 90% blue collar adjustment and a 10% white collar adjustment.

Annual administrative expenses are assumed to be equal to the administrative expenses of the previous year. Assumed administrative expenses are added to the Normal Cost. Exact fractional service is used to determine the amount of benefit payable. The adjustment is 1.5% annually commencing on each April 1 for all retirees and beneficiaries who have received at least 6 monthly benefit payments. There is a five -year delay in the COLA for non- grandfathered non - hazardous duty members for benefits accrued after January 1, 2013. There is no COLA for non - grandfathered hazardous duty members for benefits accrued after January 1, 2013. Disability and mortality decrements operate during retirement eligibility. Decrements of all types are assumed to occur at the beginning of the year. Eligibility for benefits is determined based upon the age nearest birthday and service nearest whole year on the date the decrement is assumed to occur. For vested separations from service, it is assumed that 0% of members separating will withdraw their contributions and forfeit an employer financed benefit. It was further assumed that the liability at termination is the greater of the vested deferred benefit (if any) or the member's accumulated contributions. Employer contributions are assumed to be made in equal installments during the first two quarters of the fiscal year. Member contributions are assumed to be received continuously throughout the year based upon the computed percent of payroll shown in this report, and the actual payroll payable at the time contributions are made. ' 85% of males and 85% of females are assumed to be married for purposes of death -in- service benefits. Male spouses are assumed to be five years older than female spouses for all active members and for members who became inactive after January 1, 2009. For members who became inactive on or before January 1, 2009, spouses ages are based on the assumed beneficiary dates of birth provided by the prior actuary. GRS II a IIII 27 Normal Form of Benefit The normal form of benefit is a life annuity for non - grandfathered non - hazardous duty members. For all other members, the normal form of benefit is a life annuity that includes a survivor benefit where after the participant's death, 100% is payable to the spouse for five years, after which the benefit is reduced to 50 %. Pay Increase Timing End of fiscal year. This is equivalent to assuming that reported pays represent the annual rate of pay on the valuation date. The pay used for the valuation is equal to the greater of the actual pay for the plan year increased by the salary scale assumption rate (which varies by years of service) and the annual rate of pay on the valuation date. Service Credit Accruals It is assumed that members accrue one year of service credit per year. IN IN II GRS Actuarial Accrued Liability AAL) Actuarial Assumptions Actuarial Cost Method Actuarial Equivalent Actuarial Present Value APJ'9 Actuarial Present Value of Future Benefits (APVFB) Actuarial Valuation Actuarial Value ofAssets 28 GLOSSARY The difference between the Actuarial Present Value of Future Benefits, and the Actuarial Present Value of Future Normal Costs. Assumptions about future plan experience that affect costs or liabilities, such as: mortality, withdrawal, disablement, and retirement; future increases in salary; future rates of investment earnings; future investment and administrative expenses; characteristics of members not specified in the data, such as marital status; characteristics of future members; future elections made by members; and other items. A procedure for allocating the Actuarial Present Value of Future Benefits between the Actuarial Present Value of Future Normal Costs and the Actuarial Accrued Liability. Of equal Actuarial Present Value, determined as of a given date and based on a given set of Actuarial Assumptions. The amount of funds required to provide a payment or series of payments in the future. It is determined by discounting the future payments with an assumed interest rate and with the assumed probability each payment will be made. The Actuarial Present Value of amounts which are expected to be paid at various future times to active members, retired members, beneficiaries receiving benefits, and inactive, nonretired members entitled to either a refund or a future retirement benefit. Expressed another way, it is the value that would have to be invested on the valuation date so that the amount invested plus investment earnings would provide sufficient assets to pay all projected benefits and expenses when due. The determination, as of a valuation date, of the Normal Cost, Actuarial Accrued Liability, Actuarial Value of Assets, and related Actuarial Present Values for a plan. An Actuarial Valuation for a governmental retirement system typically also includes calculations of the Funded Ratio and the Actuarially Determined Contribution (ADC). The value of the assets as of a given date, used by the actuary for valuation purposes. This may be the market or fair value of plan assets or a smoothed value in order to reduce the year -to -year volatility of calculated results, such as the funded ratio and the Actuarially Determined Contribution (ADC). GRS 5 Actuarially Determined Contribution (ADC) Amortization Method Amortization Payment Amortization Period Employer Normal Cost Equivalent Single Amortization Period Experience Gain/Loss Funded Ratio Normal Cost Open Amortization Period Closed Amortization Period 29 The employer's periodic required contributions, expressed as a dollar amount or a percentage of covered plan compensation. The ADC consists of the Employer Normal Cost and Amortization Payment. A method for determining the Amortization Payment. The most common methods used are level dollar and level percentage of payroll. Under the Level Dollar method, the Amortization Payment is one of a stream of payments, all equal, whose Actuarial Present Value is equal to the UAAL. Under the Level Percentage of Pay method, the Amortization Payment is one of a stream of increasing payments, whose Actuarial Present Value is equal to the UAAL. Under the Level Percentage of Pay method, the stream of payments increases at the rate at which total covered payroll of all active members is assumed to increase. That portion of the plan contribution or ADC which is designed to pay interest on and to amortize the Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability. The period used in calculating the Amortization Payment. A specific number of years that is reduced by one each year, and declines to zero with the passage of time. For example if the amortization period is initially set at 30 years, it is 29 years at the end of one year, 28 years at the end of two years, etc. The portion of the Normal Cost to be paid by the employer. This is equal to the Normal Cost less expected member contributions. For plans that do not establish separate amortization bases (separate components of the UAAL), this is the same as the Amortization Period. For plans that do establish separate amortization bases, this is the period over which the UAAL would be amortized if all amortization bases were combined upon the current UAAL payment. A measure of the difference between the normal cost rate from last year and the normal cost rate from this year. The ratio of the Actuarial Value of Assets to the Actuarial Accrued Liability. The annual cost assigned, under the Actuarial Cost Method, to the current plan year. An open amortization period is one which is used to determine the Amortization Payment but which does not change over time. In other words, if the initial period is set as 30 years, the same 30 -year period is used in determining the Amortization Period each year. In theory, if an Open Amortization Period is used to amortize the Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability, the UAAL will never completely disappear, but will become smaller each year, either as a dollar amount or in relation to covered payroll. GRS Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability Valuation Date 30 • III IN el ir R The difference between the Actuarial Accrued Liability and Actuarial Value of Assets. The date as of which the Actuarial Present Value of Future Benefits are determined. The benefits expected to be paid in the future are discounted to this date.

Differences between actual and assumed investment income (Line E4) are phased -in over a closed 5 -year period. During periods when investment performance exceeds the assumed rate, Actuarial Value of Assets will tend to be less than Market Value. During periods when investment performance is less than the assumed rate, Actuarial Value of Assets will tend to be greater than Market Value. If assumed rates are exactly realized for 5 consecutive years, Actuarial Value of Assets will become equal to Market Value. 34 Investment Rate of Return Plan Year Ending December 31 Market* Actuarial* 1986 13.21 % N/A 1987 10.78 N/A 1988 9.12 N/A 1989 20.84 N/A 1990 6.21 N/A 1991 28.52 N/A 1992 6.49 N/A 1993 9.29 7.42 % 1994 0.89 6.28 1995 23.36 9.14 1996 14.80 11.54 1997 17.49 13.74 1998 16.74 15.28 1999 18.61 17.96 2000 (3.43) 12.42 2001 (5.16) 7.40 2002 (8.83) (1.85) 2003 20.08 7.45 2004 9.73 2.18 2005 6.67 4.58 2006 11.80 7.87 2007 7.29 10.68 2008 (27.01) (10.61) 2009 30.93 16.53 2010 17.50 5.98 2011 (0.32) 4.46 2012 13.92 5.50 2013 16.90 14.04 2014 7.99 11.04 2015 (0.28) 7.64 2016 6.70 8.22 Average returns: Last five years: Last ten years: All years: 8.88 % 9.25 % 6.27 % 7.10 % 9.06 % 7.95 % Before investment expenses prior to 2013.
