Glen Harris calls for isolation of the retirement pay formula used for firefighters and police. Hartman argues the statute is misinterpreted and benefits should be based on the highest five years of service, not the full career, a position supported by a memorandum from Cy Attorney James Barker. Fund representatives dispute the view, saying longer service matters and the city must pay for more than 20 years.
