Book excerpt: K.S.A. 1980 Supp. 40-1707 provides for the payment of pensions to employees of fire departments who are unfit for service after having worked at least 20 years for the department. While such pension plans may be modified in certain respects prior to the actual retirement of a covered member, following such retirement no modification of terms or conditions may be made, except for administrative alterations which do not impair the vested rights of the member. Any attempt to do so would be ineffective as a violation of the contract clause of the United States Constitution, Art. I, section 10. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1980 Supp. 12-1675, 40-1703, 40-1706, 40-1707, U.S. Const., Art. I, section 10.
