VILLAGE OP
PLAINFIELD
To: Mayor Collins and the Board of Trustees
From: Traci Pleckham — Assistant Village Administ r/Management Services Director
CC: Brian Murphy — Village Administrator
Date: November 3, 2020
Subject: Year 2020 Tax Levy
Attached please find the proposed 2020 tax levy calculations. Rather than calculating the tax
levy based on maintaining the same levy dollar amount, staff has calculated the 2020 levy by
maintaining the 2019 levy rate of .4669. Consistent with Village Board direction, this levy rate
has remained unchanged for the past seven years.
Tax levy revenue and rate projections are largely a product of the Village's overall Equalized
Assessed Valuation (EAV). The EAV used in the property tax calculation averages the property
owner's assessed valuation over a three-year period. Based on preliminary information
received from Will and Kendall Counties, the overall estimated EAV has increased by
approximately 6%. The Village's official EAV will not be available until the spring of 2021.
It is important to point out that the Village approves the annual tax levy based on dollars
requested (not rate). The County Clerk then calculates the tax rate needed to produce the
amount of dollars requested by each taxing district. Because of this, staff is using in its
calculations a higher overall Equalized Assessed Value (EAV). This higher EAV estimate is to
ensure that the Village captures the entire amount of the Village's EAV, while still maintaining
the 2019 levy rate of .4669. The 2020 levy represents a total request of $7,400,000; however
the actual dollar amount the Village will receive is anticipated to be less.
As a reminder, the information provided is specific only to the Village of Plainfield's portion of
the property tax bills. The Village of Plainfield's portion of the 2019 tax levy was 5.50%. Or, for
every dollar paid in property taxes by Village residents, 5.50 cents is paid to the Village of
Plainfield.
The Village Board must approve the annual property tax levy ordinance and file in both Will and
Kendall Counties prior to the last Tuesday in December. The proposed 2020 tax levy timeline is
as follows:
November 16, 2020 Village Board Meeting: Motion to acknowledge the preliminary
estimate of the 2020 tax levy in the amount of $7,400,000
November 26, 2020: Newspaper publication of the Notice of the Public Hearing for the
Tax levy
December 7, 2020 Village Board Meeting: Public Hearing on the proposed 2020 Tax
Levy
December 7, 2020 Village Board Meeting: consideration of the 2020 Tax Levy Ordinance
for the Village of Plainfield

Plainfield, IL 60544
Re: Actuarial Valuation Report (including GASB Statements No. 67 and No. 68) – Village of
Plainfield Police Pension Fund
Dear Ms. Thornton:
We are pleased to present to the Village this report of the annual actuarial valuation of the Village of
Plainfield Police Pension Fund. Included are the related results for GASB Statements No. 67 and No.
68. The funding valuation was performed to determine whether the assets and contributions are
sufficient to provide the prescribed benefits and to develop the appropriate funding requirements for the
applicable plan year. The calculation of the liability for GASB results was performed for the purpose of
satisfying the requirements of GASB Statements No. 67 and No. 68. Use of the results for other
purposes may not be applicable and could produce significantly different results.
The valuation has been conducted in accordance with generally accepted actuarial principles and
practices, including the applicable Actuarial Standards of Practice as issued by the Actuarial Standards
Board, and reflects laws and regulations issued to date pursuant to the provisions of Article 3, Illinois
Pension Code, as well as applicable federal laws and regulations. In our opinion, the assumptions used
in this valuation, as adopted by the Board of Trustees, represent reasonable expectations of anticipated
plan experience. Future actuarial measurements may differ significantly from the current measurements
presented in this report for a variety of reasons including: changes in applicable laws, changes in plan
provisions, changes in assumptions, or plan experience differing from expectations. Due to the limited
scope of the valuation, we did not perform an analysis of the potential range of such future
measurements.
In conducting the valuation, we have relied on personnel, plan design, and asset information supplied
by the Village, financial reports prepared by the custodian bank and the actuarial assumptions and
methods described in the Actuarial Assumptions section of this report. While we cannot verify the
accuracy of all this information, the supplied information was reviewed for consistency and
reasonableness. As a result of this review, we have no reason to doubt the substantial accuracy of the
information and believe that it has produced appropriate results. This information, along with any
adjustments or modifications, is summarized in various sections of this report.
The total pension liability, net pension liability, and certain sensitivity information shown in the GASB
results are based on an actuarial valuation performed as of the valuation date.
The undersigned are familiar with the immediate and long-term aspects of pension valuations and meet
the Qualification Standards of the American Academy of Actuaries necessary to render the actuarial
opinions contained herein. All of the sections of this report are considered an integral part of the
actuarial opinions.

To our knowledge, no associate of Foster & Foster, Inc. working on valuations of the program has any
direct financial interest or indirect material interest in the Village of Plainfield, nor does anyone at
Foster & Foster, Inc. act as a member of the Board of Trustees of the Village of Plainfield Police
Pension Fund. Thus, there is no relationship existing that might affect our capacity to prepare and
certify this actuarial report.
If there are any questions, concerns, or comments about any of the items contained in this report, please
contact us at 630-620-0200.

SUMMARY OF REPORT
The regular annual actuarial valuation of the Village of Plainfield Police Pension Fund, performed as of
May 1, 2020, has been completed and the results are presented in this Report. The contribution amounts
set forth herein are applicable to the plan/fiscal year ended April 30, 2022.
The contribution requirements, compared with those set forth in the May 1, 2019 actuarial report, are as
follows:
Valuation Date 5/1/2020 5/1/2019
Applicable to Fiscal Year Ending 4/30/2022 4/30/2021
Total Recommended Contribution $2,293,067 $2,157,848
% of Projected Annual Payroll 37.7% 37.0%
Member Contributions (Est.) 602,949 577,511
% of Projected Annual Payroll 9.9% 9.9%
Village Recommended Contribution 1,690,118 1,580,337
% of Projected Annual Payroll 27.8% 27.1%
As you can see, the Total Recommended Contribution shows an increase when compared to the results
determined in the May 1, 2019 actuarial valuation report. The increase is attributable to unfavorable plan
experience, actuarial coding updates, and Tier 2 benefit changes. The increase was offset in part by a
decrease in the annual normal cost due to active membership changes.
Plan experience was unfavorable overall on the basis of the plan's actuarial assumptions. Sources of
unfavorable experience included an investment return of 4.45% (Actuarial Asset Basis) which fell short
of the 6.75% assumption, more retirements than expected, and less turnover than expected. These losses
were offset in part by a gain associated with an average salary increase of 3.56% which fell short of the
4.35% assumption.

CHANGES SINCE PRIOR VALUATION
Plan Changes Since Prior Valuation
As a result of Public Act 101-0610, signed into law on December 18, 2019, the following updates were
made to the Tier 2 benefits:
The surviving spouse benefit for non-line of duty death was updated to mirror Tier 1 benefits,
whereby Tier 2 surviving spouses will now receive 54% of final average salary, even prior to
achieving vesting at 10 years of service.
The pensionable salary cap increased retroactive to 2011 to alleviate safe harbor concerns,
updating the annual adjustment to be CPI-U instead of 50% of CPI-U. The 3% annual growth
cap remains in place.
The final average salary was increased from averaging the highest consecutive 96 of the last 120
months of salary to averaging the highest consecutive 48 of the last 60 months of salary.
Actuarial Assumption/Method Changes Since Prior Valuation
There were no assumption or method changes since the prior valuation.

GLOSSARY
Total Annual Payroll is the projected annual rate of pay for the fiscal year following the valuation date of
all covered members.
Present Value of Benefits is the single sum value on the valuation date of all future benefits to be paid to
current Members, Retirees, Beneficiaries, Disability Retirees and Vested Terminations.
Normal (Current Year's) Cost is the current year's cost for benefits yet to be funded.
Unfunded Accrued Liability is a liability which arises when a pension plan is initially established or
improved and such establishment or improvement is applicable to all years of past service.
Total Recommended Contribution is equal to the Normal Cost plus an amount sufficient to amortize the
Unfunded Accrued Liability over a period ending in 2041. The recommended amount is adjusted for
interest according to the timing of contributions during the year.
Entry Age Normal Cost Method - Under this method, the normal cost is the sum of the individual normal
costs for all active participants. For an active participant, the normal cost is the participant’s normal cost
accrual rate, multiplied by the participant’s current compensation.
(a) The normal cost accrual rate equals:
(i) the present value of future benefits for the participant, determined as of the
participant’s entry age, divided by
(ii) the present value of the compensation expected to be paid to the participant for each
year of the participant’s anticipated future service, determined as of the participant’s
entry age.
(b) In calculating the present value of future compensation, the salary scale is applied both
retrospectively and prospectively to estimate compensation in years prior to and subsequent to the
valuation year based on the compensation used for the valuation.
(c) The accrued liability is the sum of the individual accrued liabilities for all participants and
beneficiaries. A participant’s accrued liability equals the present value, at the participant’s
attained age, of future benefits less the present value at the participant’s attained age of the
individual normal costs payable in the future. A beneficiary’s accrued liability equals the present
value, at the beneficiary’s attained age, of future benefits. The unfunded accrued liability equals
the total accrued liability less the actuarial value of assets.
(d) Under this method, the entry age used for each active participant is the participant’s age at the
time he or she would have commenced participation if the plan had always been in existence
under current terms, or the age as of which he or she first earns service credits for purposes of
benefit accrual under the current terms of the plan.

DISCUSSION OF RISK
ASOP No. 51, Assessment and Disclosure of Risk Associated with Measuring Pension Obligations and
Determining Pension Plan Contributions, states that the actuary should identify risks that, in the actuary’s
professional judgment, may reasonably be anticipated to significantly affect the plan’s future financial
condition.
Throughout this report, actuarial results are determined under various assumption scenarios. These
results are based on the premise that all future plan experience will align with the plan’s actuarial
assumptions; however, there is no guarantee that actual plan experience will align with the plan’s
assumptions. It is possible that actual plan experience will differ from anticipated experience in an
unfavorable manner that will negatively impact the plan’s funded position.
Below are examples of ways in which plan experience can deviate from assumptions and the potential
impact of that deviation. Typically, this results in an actuarial gain or loss representing the current-year
financial impact on the plan’s unfunded liability of the experience differing from assumptions; this gain
or loss is amortized over a period of time determined by the plan’s amortization method. When
assumptions are selected that adequately reflect plan experience, gains and losses typically offset one
another in the long term, resulting in a relatively low impact on the plan’s contribution requirements
associated with plan experience. When assumptions are too optimistic, losses can accumulate over time
and the plan’s amortization payment could potentially grow to an unmanageable level.
Investment Return: When the rate of return on the Actuarial Value of Assets falls short of the
assumption, this produces a loss representing assumed investment earnings that were not
realized. Further, it is unlikely that the plan will experience a scenario that matches the assumed
return in each year as capital markets can be volatile from year to year. Therefore, contribution
amounts can vary in the future.
Salary Increases: When a plan participant experiences a salary increase that was greater than
assumed, this produces a loss representing the cost of an increase in anticipated plan benefits for
the participant as compared to the previous year. The total gain or loss associated with salary
increases for the plan is the sum of salary gains and losses for all active participants.
Payroll Growth: The plan’s payroll growth assumption, if one is used, causes a predictable annual
increase in the plan’s amortization payment in order to produce an amortization payment that
remains constant as a percentage of payroll if all assumptions are realized. If payroll does not
increase according to the plan’s payroll growth assumption, the plan’s amortization payment can
increase significantly as a percentage of payroll even if all assumptions other than the payroll
growth assumption are realized.
Demographic Assumptions: Actuarial results take into account various potential events that could
happen to a plan participant, such as retirement, termination, disability, and death. Each of these
potential events is assigned a liability based on the likelihood of the event and the financial
consequence of the event for the plan. Accordingly, actuarial liabilities reflect a blend of
financial consequences associated with various possible outcomes (such as retirement at one of
various possible ages). Once the outcome is known (e.g. the participant retires) the liability is
adjusted to reflect the known outcome. This adjustment produces a gain or loss depending on
whether the outcome was more or less favorable than other outcomes that could have occurred.
