<p>The Baltimore City Council is poised to vote on a measure Monday that would speed up their pension eligibility from 12 years to eight years, if ballot measure Question K is passed by voters.</p> <p>The Question K measure would establish a two-term limit for mayor, council president, comptroller, and city council members. However, term limits would only apply to one office at a time. This means an elected leader could serve eight years as a councilmember, then another eight as council president, and mayor, allowing for a career of public service. The upcoming council meeting comes just a day before Election Day.</p> <p>Baltimore Attorney Carville Collins believes this legislation of adjusting the pension requirement should not be enacted by the city council, calling the decision premature and unethical.</p> <p>"The council seems to be poised to pass a bill in a two-week period," Collins said. "That sounds quite rushed, and without the benefit of a full fiscal analysis off of the impact on the city and for the tax payers of the city."</p> <p>Although Collins acknowledged there needs to be a retirement plan for city officials and city employees, he said with this plan, there will not much benefit at all.</p>
