In her final act on the dais, Commissioner Sheila Alu plans to take up the lucrative pensions promised to workers at Sunrise City Hall.

On Tuesday, Alu says she will discuss the millions paid to those who have retired from the city, and whether there might be a chance for pension reform.

Alu said she'd like to see a referendum on the March 12 ballot asking voters if they want pension reform or tax hikes and layoffs at City Hall.

Alu says she began researching the retirement plans after finding out the "ridiculous" amount she will get when she leaves office Thursday.

Remember you do not risk your life every day like police officers and firefighters.. Also, they have to work around 30 years for a pension... I believe you worked around 12 for yours... That is why there is a big difference in the amounts!!!!!!!!!!!!
