☒ Managed Growth ☒ Resilient Infrastructure
BACKGROUND: GWSA Land Development, LLC entered into a development agreement with the City
for Legacy at Northstar 4th Addition on May 4, 2021. The sanitary sewer and watermain warranty period
ended on January 4, 2025, and the public improvement warranty period ended on January 2, 2025.
ISSUE BEFORE COUNCIL: Should the City Council approve release of the warranty security for Legacy
at Northstar 4th Addition as outlined in the Development Agreement?
PROPOSAL DETAILS/ANALYSIS: Staff has received and processed a request to release the public
improvement warranty security for the Legacy at Northstar 4th Addition. This request has been reviewed
and is being recommended for approval in accordance with the approved Development Agreement. The 1-
year warranty period for the public improvements expired on January 2, 2025. Twenty-five percent (25%)
of the original security was retained through the 1-year warranty period. A warranty walk-through was
completed by city staff and all warranty punch list items have since been addressed by the developer.
With the release of the warranty security the overall development security may be reduced as shown below:
Current Security Amount Proposed Security Amount
1. Legacy at Northstar 4th Addition $234,853 $26,875
Twenty-five percent (25%) of the landscaping security amount will be retained.
FISCAL IMPACT: Release of the warranty security closes out the public improvement portion of the
development. The operation and maintenance of public facilities becomes the responsibility of the City
going forward.
OPTIONS: Release the security amount or Retain the current security amount.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff is recommending that the City Council, as part of the Consent Agenda,
approve the release of public improvement warranty security for Legacy at Northstar 4th Addition as
detailed in the attached worksheet. The release of security is contingent on the developer being current with
all payments and obligations in accordance with the Development Agreement, including a positive escrow
balance as may be required by the City. If removed from the consent agenda, the recommended motion for
the action is as follows:
Motion to approve the security release for Legacy at Northstar 4th Addition as detailed in the
Security Reduction Worksheet, contingent on the developer being current with all payments and
obligations in accordance with the Development Agreement, including a positive escrow balance as
may be required by the City.

BACKGROUND:
The Lake Elmo Fire Department has been a part of the East Metro Public Safety Training Facility
since planning began in 2009 and as a current JPA member since the facility opened in 2016. Access
to a training facility like this is vital to the training and operations of the fire department and the
services provided to the community.
This amended and restated Joint Powers Agreement between the cities of Lake Elmo, Maplewood,
North St. Paul, Oakdale and Cottage Grove provides an updated agreement between the cities with
changes made within the agreement including adding the City of Cottage Grove and updating the
naming of the Oakdale Fire Department.

Lake Elmo, Maplewood, North St. Paul, Oakdale and Cottage Grove?
PROPOSAL DETAILS/ANALYSIS:
This agreement represents a collective effort to update and improve the East Metro Public Safety
Training Facility Joint Powers Agreement. It was developed with input from several municipal
attorneys representing member departments. The agreement was also reviewed by our own legal
counsel.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fire department currently budgets site use fees in its annual budget at $200/ per firefighter ($8,000
annually) These fees are also fully reimbursable through the Minnesota Board of Firefighter Training
and Education (MBFTE).
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the Mayor and City Administrator to enter into the
amended and restated East Metro Public Safety Training Facility Joint Powers Agreement between the
cities of Lake Elmo, Maplewood, North St. Paul, Oakdale and Cottage Grove. If removed from the

BACKGROUND:
City Council approved a Technical Assistance Panel provided by the Urban Land Institute to assist in
strategy for the City owned 180 acres located at 34th St N and Ideal Avenue in June of 2025. Creating a
plan to develop the City owned 180-acres was an action item listed in the Economic Development
Authority’s 2025 workplan.
ULI Minnesota provided a Technical Assistance Panel with the City of Lake Elmo from October 22-24,
2025, that was focused on providing input and direction for the city-owned 180 acres located at 34th St N
and Ideal Avenue. Stakeholder meetings/interviews were conducted by the panel and were held on October
23 at City Hall.
Expert panelists included:
•John Slack, Perkins and Will
•Mark Hogue, North Oaks Development
•Tom Strohm, Likewise Partners
•Taylor Smrikarova, most recently of Redesign Inc
•Haila Maze, Bolton and Menk
•Mitchell Cookas, ISG
•Tammy Omdal, Northland Securities
Analysis & Discussion
Members from the panel are presenting their analysis and perspectives on the project at the City Council
meeting on 11/18/2025. Their input is intended to provide additional insight and guidance to assist in
evaluating potential approaches to developing the land. The information presented should be considered
advisory.
Next steps
Following the presentation, the City Council should discuss the information provided and direct staff to
bring this item back for further discussion and direction and a future workshop. A final report will be
submitted to the City by ULI in December 2025.

Stakeholder Meetings
•City Professional Staff
•Building Owners and
Managers
•Developers and Architects
•Brokers and Lenders
•Advocates
•Community Organizations
Insights from Stakeholder Interviews – Lake Elmo
•Small-town feel, rural, open, and green
•City is safe and friendly
•Historic perceptions around development
receptivity
•Elected leadership and City staff are striving
to get to “Yes” and solutions
•Downtown is great; local retailers appreciated
•Strong residential pipeline; commercial
pipeline is quiet
•Want to remain different from neighboring
communities (no big box)
•Residents generally commute to work outside
the community
•Mixed-use is missing from the city
•Few (no) entry-level housing options
•No central community gathering space
•Parks are great but becoming a City chore
•Limited staff capacity for growing list of tasks
•Would like to see sustainability and resilience
elevated
•Make sure the community is kept informed on
any plans
•“You hit that intersection and the lights go off.
You’re in Lake Elmo."
Parcel 3 (P3)
Parcel 2 (P2)
Parcel 1 (P1)
Insights on the Study Site
•Site is owned outright by the City (no debt)
•It is a gateway to the rest of the city
•Topography will require significant grading
•Rail line separates P1 and P2
•Sewer in place on P1; sewer to P2 needs to go
under rail lines; P3 would go under 34th Street
•Southern site (P1) has significant grade drop
and watershed constraints
•Public Works is consuming the area’s
premiere commercial corner on P3
•Existing residential around P3 needs
consideration
Broker Notes
•Need to know constraints, City requirements
(zoning, utilities, due diligence, access, special
uses/trails/City buildings)
•Need to know process and timeline for
approvals
•Retail across the intersection in Oakdale has
struggled
•Access points will be important as will speed
to market
•Good roadway connectivity
•Heavy industrial could work
•Office only makes sense with tenant in hand
•Keep options open and don’t divide the site
•Help brokers get familiar with the site
Existing Conditions
Area Context

Trail Connectivity
•Maximize community benefit : fiscal strength,jobs, services, housing options, etc.
•Maintain image and character: natural beauty, welcoming gateway
•Establish design and performance standards: compatible, quality, efficient
•Preserve future flexibility: staged with options along the way
•Advance sustainability and resilience: natural, economic, social
•Ready and responsive to the market: short term and long-term arcs
•Build internal capacity: city’s ability to own and maintain vision
•Integrate open space and trails: connecting to citywide network
•Effectively manage transitions: in time and space, mindful of neighbors
Guiding Principles
What’s important here
•City overall:
▪Fiscal and economic benefits – taxes, daytime
population, etc.
▪Attractors and services – jobs, retail/services,
destinations
▪Housing options – lifecycle choices, range of price
points
▪Gateway presence – welcoming point to the community
▪Green space network – parks and trails, filling the gap
•Village:
▪Economic: feeding the energy of the destination
▪Physical: connection via trails and roads
The Site’s Contribution to the City
•Market Feasibility: More generally, are there development trends that you are seeing for
comparable properties? What economic incentives would be most beneficial to the site, TIF, tax
abatement, etc.?
•Local Benefit: What land uses would generate the most property tax? (Future tax analysis by
land use) What land uses are most financially feasible? Are there current conditions that could
affect this?
•Community Role: What kind of requirements/strategies could the city put in place to encourage
community participation in the development process?
•Phasing and Timing: What are the pros and cons of dividing the site or selling as one property?
Should the site be offered in phases? What would a phased development strategy look like? Is
now a good time to sell the property? Does the timing affect how it should be sold? What is the
preferred disposition method? Discussion of options.

•TIF – May be a tool to assist qualified development.
•Tax Abatement – May be a tool to assist development of the property, including direct
assistance to developer(s) or to assist with financing public infrastructure. The city may only
“leverage” city taxes to assist the development and may not leverage taxes payable to the other
taxing jurisdictions.
•Land Write Down – City may write down land sale to assist development.
•Bonding – City may use its authority to issue tax exempt bonds to financing public
infrastructure. City may assess a portion of the improvement costs to the property or pledge
other sources of revenue to the bonds, including utility revenues, tax abatement levies, and ad
valorem property taxes, among other sources.
Financial tools
Supporting public role
Community Role
What kind of requirements & strategies could the city put in place
to encourage community successful participation in the
development process?
Transparency, Consistency & Compromise
•Regularly scheduled sessions, in person and virtual
•Start with education on development terms and background
information
•Hire a special consultant for engagement, should work
closely with communications person
•Provide the plan including alternatives for reaction (not open -
ended questions)
•Always provide the “why” – to enhance City of Lake Elmo per
the stated goal and prevent residential tax increase by
increasing tax base with new commercial development
What kind of requirements & strategies could the city put in place
to encourage community successful participation in the
development process?
Transparency, Consistency & Compromise
•Rezone to accomplish the plan, the plan aligns with
city’s goals, plan creates increased tax revenue
•Make it easy for developers to say “yes” by creating
by-right zoning
•Build capacity internally with dedicated staff for plan
review, community engagement and
communications
•Condense total timeline from Plan Review/Building
Permit Application to Construction start to 12
months
Phasing and Timing
•FINANCES: Willingness to take on debt and subsidy to finance improvements
•GUIDELINES: Certainty on development guidance, vs. ask them to “show us”
•CAPACITY: Staffing and internal capacity building potential
•TIMING: Staging and timing for buildout, tied to capital plan/budget
•SUSTAINABILITY: Upgrades for sustainability, mandated vs. incentivized
•PUBLIC SERVICE: Space for public facilities to service future city needs
Big Policy Questions
City Vision and Direction
•August 2021: Lift Station 6: Cost $893,000 – Oakdale 70%, Lake
Elmo 30% cost share
•October 2021: sewer service – Lake Elmo to pay Oakdale upfront for
connection ($772k estimate) and annually for service, 500 RECs
equivalent allocation
•This scenario: ~130,000 avg gpd (ballpark estimate)

FROM: Nate Stanley, City Engineer
AGENDA ITEM: Authorize Engineering services for 2026 Crosswalk Layouts
REVIEWED BY: Nicole Miller, City Administrator
Clarissa Hadler, Finance Director
Marty Powers, Public Works Director
Chad Isakson, Assistant City Engineer
Jack Griffin, Municipal Sr. Project Manager.
CORE STRATEGIES:
☐ Vibrant, inclusive, connected community ☐ Efficient, reliable, innovative services
☐ Responsive, transparent, adaptive governance ☐ Balanced Finances now and future
☒ Managed Growth ☒ Resilient Infrastructure
BACKGROUND: On December 3, 2024, the City Council adopted a Pedestrian Crosswalk Policy to guide
the City in determining when to mark a crosswalk and when to leave a crosswalk unmarked.
ISSUE BEFORE COUNCIL: Should the City Council authorize engineering services for the preparation
of conceptual layouts and planning-level cost estimates for 3 new proposed crosswalks to be installed in
2026, at the intersection of 5th Street and Ivwood Circle, 5th Street and Julia Avenue, and Village Parkway
and Lower 31st Street?
PROPOSAL DETAILS/ANALYSIS: Staff received a request from a property owner to install crosswalks
along 5th Street North, between Inwood Avenue (CSAH 13) and Keats Avenue (CSAH 19). These
intersections were reviewed by City staff to determine where crosswalks should be marked along this
corridor. From this review, two intersections were identified that met the policy for crosswalk markings.
The intersection of 5th Street and Ivwood Circle meets the policy recommendations for a marked crosswalk
since the intersection is immediately adjacent to Ivywood Park, and the intersection of 5th Street and Julia
Avenue meets the policy recommendations for a marked crosswalk since the intersection is immediately
adjacent to Savona Park. As part of this review process, staff identified an additional intersection at Village
Parkway and Lower 31st Street that is also immediately adjacent to a park (Northport HOA Park).
All of the intersections evaluated fall under the category of side-street stop control. As such the policy reads
as follows: “At locations across a stop-controlled leg of a side street stop-controlled intersection, it is the
City Policy that crosswalks will remain unmarked, unless the crossing directly serves a key destination as
defined in the “Criteria Definitions” section. A key destination is defined in the policy as follows: “For
this Policy a key destination includes a school or public park immediately adjacent to the crossing location,
an established school route, or the crossing location is along a designated walking/bicycle route to/from the
Old Village in a plan that has been formally adopted by the City of Lake Elmo.
City staff reached out to SRF Consulting, Inc. to obtain a proposal to provide crosswalk recommendations
for the 3 designated intersections. The scope of services is limited to the proposed layouts with estimated
implementation costs, as detailed design engineering and construction phase assistance may or may not be
required once the identified scope of improvements has been completed. If the crosswalk markings are
limited to pavement markings and signage, it is likely the work can be installed by Public Works. However,
as 5th Street is a high-volume, higher-speed collector roadway, the work may require additional
improvements including raised median, high visibility electronic signage, and/or pedestrian ramp
improvements. Should the design layout require more significant improvements, the project may need to
be competitively bid for contractor installation. In either case, the proposed crosswalk layout together with
estimates for installation costs will be brought back to the City Council for consideration and direction.
FISCAL IMPACT: $22,832 for the engineering services to provide crosswalk recommendations and
detailed design layout for the 3 designated intersections. No estimate is available for the crosswalk
installation until the scope of improvements is known.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff is recommending that the City Council authorize engineering services for
the 2026 Crosswalk Improvements to include the intersections of 5th Street and Ivwood Circle, 5th Street
and Julia Avenue, and Village Parkway and Lower 31st Street. The recommended motion for the action is
as follows:
“Move to authorize preliminary engineering services for the 2026 Crosswalk Improvements in the
estimated amount of $22,832, for the intersections of 5th Street and Ivwood Circle, 5th Street and
Julia Avenue, and Village Parkway and Lower 31st Street.”

TO: City Council
FROM: Dustin Kalis, Fire Chief
AGENDA ITEM: Approve Statewide Volunteer Firefighter Plan Benefit Level Increase
REVIEWED BY: Nicole Miller, City Administrator
Dustin Kalis, Fire Chief
Clarissa Hadler, Finance Director
CORE STRATEGIES:
☐ Vibrant, inclusive, connected community ☒ Efficient, reliable, innovative services
☒ Responsive, transparent, adaptive governance ☒ Balanced Finances now and future
☐ Managed Growth ☐ Resilient Infrastructure
BACKGROUND:
The retirement benefit for Lake Elmo paid-on-call (POC) firefighters has been operated by the
Statewide Volunteer Firefighter Plan (SVF) since 2024. Annually, Public Employees Retirement
Association of Minnesota (PERA) and the SVF provide an Actuarial Valuation Report to the city.
Information provided in this report provides information used when seeking a pension benefit level
increase.
ISSUE BEFORE COUNCIL:
Should the City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the Statewide Volunteer Firefighter Plan
Benefit Level Increase to $9,000 per year of service.
PROPOSAL DETAILS/ANALYSIS:
The Statewide Volunteer Firefighter Plan is the sole retirement benefit provided to paid-on-call fire
department staff. The plan is funded through the department’s pension assets and annual fire state aid
contributions from the State of Minnesota.
The proposed change would increase the retirement benefit from $8,000 per year of service to $9,000
per year of service. The current vesting schedule is 5 years (40%) and full vesting at 20 years
(100%).
A fire department’s SVF Plan benefit level is the dollar amount corresponding to each year of a
volunteer firefighter’s certified service. PERA’s cost analysis is intended to help the city determine
whether and the extent to which a benefit level increase is appropriate for their fire department.
The city has the authority to approve benefit level increases for the fire department and may elect to
do so once per year. A benefit level increase approved in a given year will go into effect on January 1
of the next year. The city cannot elect to decrease the fire department’s benefit level.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The 2025 Actuarial Valuation Report (attached) indicated that at our current benefit level of $8,000
per year of service, with the plan currently 147.07% overfunded and requiring no municipal
contribution to the plan for 2026. A benefit level analysis using formulas provided by PERA accounted
for a large retirement payout not yet submitted. At the $9,000 per year benefit level, our funding
amount is 134%.
SVF PERA fees are $60 per firefighter per year (includes active and deferred firefighters) and
investment fees: $0.06 per $1,000 invested (6/10ths of 1%). These fees are calculated annually and
are withdrawn from the department’s pension assets.
Below is a list of benefit levels from area departments with a POC or PT firefighter pension
benefit:
Department Plan Type 2025 Benefit Level 2026 Benefit Level
Lake Elmo SVF $8,000 $9,000
Mahtomedi SVF $6,900 $10,000

Re: City of Lake Elmo Volunteer Fire Department Actuarial Valuation as of December 31, 2025
Dear PERA Trustees:
The results of the December 31, 2025 Actuarial Valuation of the City of Lake Elmo Volunteer Fire
Department (the Plan) are presented in this report.
This report was prepared at the request of the Board and is intended for use by the Public Employees
Retirement Association (PERA) and the Plan and those designated or approved by the Board or the Plan.
This report may be provided to parties other than PERA and the Plan only in its entirety and only with the
permission of the Board or the Plan. GRS is not responsible for unauthorized use of this report.
The purposes of the valuation are to measure the Plan’s funding progress and to determine the required
contribution for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. This report should not be relied on for any
purpose other than the purposes described herein. Determinations of financial results, associated with the
benefits described in this report, for purposes other than those identified above may be significantly
different.
The contribution in this report is determined using the actuarial assumptions and methods disclosed on
page 8 of this report. This report includes risk metrics on page 6 but does not include a more robust
assessment of the risks of future experience not meeting the actuarial assumptions. Additional assessment
of risks was outside the scope of this assignment.
This valuation assumed the continuing ability of the governing body to make the contributions necessary to
fund this plan. A determination regarding whether or not the governing body is actually able to do so is
outside our scope of expertise and was not performed.
The findings in this report are based on data and other information through December 31, 2024. The
valuation was based upon information furnished by PERA concerning the Plan, financial transactions, plan
provisions, and active and terminated members. We checked for internal reasonability and year-to-year
consistency, but did not audit the data. We are not responsible for the accuracy or completeness of the
information provided by PERA.

Actuarial assumptions, including discount rates, and others identified in this report, are prescribed by
Minnesota Statutes Section 353G.08, the Legislative Commission on Pensions and Retirement (LCPR), and
the Trustees. These parties are responsible for selecting the plan’s funding policy, actuarial valuation
methods, asset valuation methods and assumptions. The policies, methods and assumptions used in this
valuation are those that have been so prescribed and are described in the Methods and Assumptions
section of this report. PERA is solely responsible for communicating to GRS any changes required thereto.
All actuarial assumptions used in this report are reasonable for the purposes of this valuation. The
combined effect of the assumptions is expected to have no significant bias (i.e. not significantly optimistic
or pessimistic). All actuarial assumptions and methods used in the valuation follow the guidance in the
applicable Actuarial Standards of Practice. Additional information about the actuarial assumptions is
included in the section of this report entitled Methods and Assumptions. We have assessed that the
contribution allocation procedure calculated under the current funding policy is a reasonable Actuarially
Determined Employer Contribution (ADEC) and is not significantly inconsistent with the plan accumulating
adequate assets to make benefit payments when due.
This report was prepared using our proprietary valuation model and related software which, in our
professional judgment, has the capability to provide results that are consistent with the purposes of the
valuation and has no material limitations or known weaknesses. We performed tests to ensure that the
model reasonably represents that which is intended to be modeled.
This report has been prepared by actuaries who have substantial experience valuing public employee
retirement systems. To the best of our knowledge, the information contained in this report is accurate and
fairly presents the actuarial position of the Plan as of the valuation date and was performed in accordance
with the requirements of Minnesota Statutes Section 353G.08, and the requirements of the Standards for
Actuarial Work established by the LCPR. All calculations have been made in conformity with generally
accepted actuarial principles and practices, with the Actuarial Standards of Practice issued by the Actuarial
Standards Board, and with applicable statutes.
Bonita J. Wurst and Sheryl L. Christensen are Members of the American Academy of Actuaries (MAAA) and
meet the Qualification Standards of the American Academy of Actuaries to render the actuarial opinions
contained herein. In addition, GRS meets the requirements of “approved actuary” under Minnesota
Statutes Section 356.215, Subdivision 1, Paragraph (c).
The signing actuaries are independent of the plan sponsor.

Risks Associated with Measuring the Accrued Liability and
Actuarially Determined Contribution
The determination of the accrued liability and the actuarially determined contribution requires the use of
assumptions regarding future economic and demographic experience. Risk measures, as illustrated in this
report, are intended to aid in the understanding of the effects of future experience differing from the
assumptions used in the course of the actuarial valuation. Risk measures may also help with illustrating the
potential volatility in the accrued liability and the actuarially determined contribution that result from the
differences between actual experience and the actuarial assumptions.
Future actuarial measurements may differ significantly from the current measurements presented in this
report due to such factors as the following: plan experience differing from that anticipated by the economic or
demographic assumptions; changes in economic or demographic assumptions due to changing conditions;
increases or decreases expected as part of the natural operation of the methodology used for these
measurements (such as the end of an amortization period, or additional cost or contribution requirements
based on the Plan’s funded status); and changes in plan provisions or applicable law. The scope of an actuarial
valuation does not include an analysis of the potential range of such future measurements.
Examples of risk that may reasonably be anticipated to significantly affect the plan’s future financial condition
include:
1. Investment Risk – actual investment returns may differ from the expected returns;
2. Asset/Liability Mismatch – changes in asset values may not match changes in liabilities, and are highly
dependent on the timing of lump sum payments, thereby altering the gap between the accrued
liability and assets and consequently altering the funded status and contribution requirements;
3. Contribution Risk – actual contributions may differ from expected future contributions. For example,
actual contributions may not be made in accordance with the plan’s funding policy or material changes
may occur in the anticipated number of covered employees or other relevant contribution base;
4. Other Demographic Risks – members may terminate, retire or become disabled at times or with
benefits other than assumed resulting in actual future accrued liability and contributions differing from
expected.
The effects of certain trends in experience can generally be anticipated. For example, if the investment return
since the most recent actuarial valuation is less (or more) than the assumed rate, the cost of the plan can be
expected to increase (or decrease).
The required contribution shown on page 1 may be considered as a minimum contribution that complies with
Minnesota Statutes. The timely receipt of the actuarially determined contributions is critical to support the
financial health of the plan. Users of this report should be aware that contributions made at the actuarially
determined rate do not necessarily guarantee benefit security.
Additional Risk Assessment
Additional risk assessment is outside the scope of the annual actuarial valuation. Additional assessment may
include scenario tests, sensitivity tests, stochastic modeling, stress tests, and a comparison of the present
value of accrued benefits at low-risk discount rates with the actuarial accrued liability.
City of Lake Elmo Volunteer Fire Department 7
Low-Default-Risk Obligation Measure
Actuarial Standards of Practice No. 4 (ASOP No. 4) was revised and reissued in December 2021 by the Actuarial
Standards Board (ASB). It includes a new calculation called a Low-Default-Risk Obligation Measure (LDROM) to
be prepared and issued annually for defined benefit pension plans. The transmittal memorandum for ASOP
No. 4 includes the following explanation:
“The ASB believes that the calculation and disclosure of this measure provides appropriate, useful information
for the intended user regarding the funded status of a pension plan. The calculation and disclosure of this
additional measure is not intended to suggest that this is the “right” liability measure for a pension plan.
However, the ASB does believe that this additional disclosure provides a more complete assessment of a plan’s
funded status and provides additional information regarding the security of benefits that members have
earned as of the measurement date.”
The following information has been prepared in compliance with this new requirement. Unless otherwise
noted, the measurement date, actuarial cost methods, and assumptions used are the same as for the funding
valuation covered in this actuarial valuation report.
A. Low-Default-Risk Obligation Measure of benefits earned as of the measurement date: $1,287,668
B. Discount rate used to calculate the LDROM: 5.54%
C. Other significant assumptions that differ from those used for the funding valuation: none
D. Actuarial cost method used to calculate the LDROM: Entry Age Actuarial Cost Method
E. Valuation procedures to value any significant plan provisions that are difficult to measure using
traditional valuation procedures, and that differ from the procedures used in the funding valuation:
none
F. The LDROM is a market-based measurement of the pension obligation. It estimates the amount the
plan would need to invest in low risk securities to provide the benefits with greater certainty. This
measure may not be appropriate for assessing the need for or amount of future contributions. This
measure may not be appropriate for assessing the sufficiency of plan assets to cover the estimated
cost of settling the plan’s benefit obligation.
The difference between the two measures (Valuation and LDROM) is one illustration of the savings the
sponsor anticipates by taking on the risk in a diversified portfolio.
