10/9/2008: Baltimore School Officials Give Thumbs Down on 403(b) Vendor Consolidation (PLANSPONSOR.com; free registration required)
Excerpt: "At a time when many 403(b) plans across the country are consolidating to a single service provider to ease compliance with new IRS rules, the Baltimore County school board voted not to follow that path in light of a protest from hundreds of employees and the district's five labor groups. A Baltimore Sun news report said board members unanimously opposed the recommended contract with 403(b) provider Lincoln Financial Group, which would have moved away from the multiple vendors currently available to employees."
