The county doesn't continue to pay those salaries and benefits until they die. When they retire VRS (state pension system) will pay ~50% of the employee's avg of the highest three years' salaries. FCPS has a supplemental plan, the ERFC. It provides about 25% of the avg three years' salaries.
FCPS really doesn't pay anything towards the retiree's healthcare.
