Over 30 years of retirement, Bratton would collect as much as $223,126, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Lake County Gazette.
The projection assumes Bratton received $4,689 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Bratton will have already received $14,494 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
