The Municipal Police Officers and Firefighters' Retirement Trust Funds Section (MPF), within the Bureau of Local Retirement Systems, provides oversight and monitoring of Florida’s municipal and special district pension plans established for the benefit of police officers and firefighters under Chapters 175 and 185, Florida Statutes. This section also sponsors two annual training programs to provide education and updates for the pension plan trustees of plans operating under these chapters, one in the spring in Tallahassee and one in the fall in central Florida. The information provided on these pages will be useful for plan participants, board members, service providers, interested cities, or concerned citizens.
