Pension funds in Pennsylvania cities face funding shortfalls
Police and fire pension funds in most Pennsylvania cities lack adequate incoming money, a report by the Department of Community Affairs shows. In 1974 only five of 44 cities had adequate police funds, with Philadelphia, Lock Haven, Meadville, Shamokin, and Uniontown named. fire pension funds were sufficient in only three cities, and non uniformed workers in 18 cities. Unfunded liabilities exceed one billion dollars as officials blame generous benefits and funding limits.
