Over 30 years of retirement, Lyons would collect as much as $116,190, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Peoria Standard.
The projection assumes Lyons received $2,442 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Lyons will have already received $10,215 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
