FY2021 Adopted Budget Fund Budgets

Length of Service Award Program Trust

Length of Service Award Program Trust The Length of Service Awards Program (LOSAP) is a voluntary program funded by Frederick County and administered by the Frederick County Volunteer Fire and Rescue Association (FCVFRA). Volunteer Fire and Rescue personnel in Frederick County enrolled in LOSAP are eligible to receive certain financial benefits based on years of qualified service. Beginning in FY2017, the County's expense for this program was required to change from a cash pay-as-you-go basis to an actuarially determined expense. With this change came the creation of a Trust Fund established by the County, which is reported here. The LOSAP Trust Fund holds assets for investment to pay future costs and is used to measure and report on the liability resulting from the promise to pay future benefits. Presented for informational purposes only and is not adopted by the County Council. Budget Highlights The Actuarially Determined Contribution (ADC) is fully funded in the FY21 budget. When determining the ADC, there were no methodology changes and there were two assumption changes: first, updating the mortality tables and second, adding an administrative expense load.
