Over 30 years of retirement, Leitch would collect as much as $528,401, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Peoria Standard.
The projection assumes Leitch received $11,106 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Leitch will have already received $46,462 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
