July Pension Hike Unlikely in Colorado
Welfare Director Kate M. Kouns Alu closed today as the welfare board met to fix the July pension figure. May revenues were insufficient to cover the state's share of June pensions at the $80 monthly maximum, with receipts totaling $2,147,055, down 28 percent from last year’s May. The state's share of June old age pension payments was $2,382,000, covered by a $692,190 surplus. This equals $13.40 per pensioner. The balance a month ago was $15.15 and in April it was 16.65. Year to date state funds placed in the old age pension fund amounted to $12,112,424, down 4.2 percent from the prior year. Experts predict higher revenues for the year, potentially allowing a pension increase if realized. The number of Colorado residents eligible for old age pensions has fallen, with May counts down and overall eligibility totaling 52,061. The average award after deductions was not specified.
