Your department's retirement steps

Nobody hands you the whole picture. The state runs one piece, your department runs another, your insurance is somewhere else, and none of them talk to each other on your behalf. So I put it in one place for your department.

• Which plan you are actually in, and the rules that come with it
• The forms and deadlines, in order, and the ones that cost people money
• The leave, insurance and DROP traps specific to your department
• Exactly who to call, and what to ask them in writing
• The six decisions every firefighter faces on the way out
