Go to top STATE OF NEW YORK ________________________________________________________________________ 5779 2015-2016 Regular Sessions IN SENATE June 3, 2015 ___________ Introduced by Sen. MARCHIONE -- read twice and ordered printed, and when printed to be committed to the Committee on Civil Service and Pensions AN ACT to authorize the town of Waterford, in the county of Saratoga to offer an optional twenty year retirement plan and the additional pension benefit plan for members of optional twenty year retirement plan to police officer Michael Shudt The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem- bly, do enact as follows: 1 Section 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary, 2 the town of Waterford, in the county of Saratoga, a participating 3 employer in the New York state and local police and fire retirement 4 system, which previously elected to offer the optional twenty year 5 retirement plan, established pursuant to section 384-d of the retirement 6 and social security law and the additional pension benefit plan for 7 members of the optional twenty year retirement plan established pursuant 8 to section 384-e of the retirement and social security law, to police 9 officers employed by such town, is hereby authorized to make partic- 10 ipation in such plan available to Michael Shudt, a police officer 11 employed by the town of Waterford with a start date of September 2, 12 1998, who, for reasons not ascribable to his own negligence, failed to 13 make a timely application to participate in such optional twenty year 14 retirement plan. The town of Waterford may so elect by filing with the 15 state comptroller, on or before December 31, 2015, a resolution of its 16 town board together with certification that such police officer did not 17 bar himself from participation in such retirement plan as a result of 18 his own negligence. Thereafter, such police officer may elect to be 19 covered by the provisions of section 384-d of the retirement and social 20 security law, and shall be entitled to the full rights and benefits 21 associated with coverage under such section, by filing a request to that 22 effect with the state comptroller on or before June 30, 2016. EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [] is old law to be omitted. LBD11406-02-5S. 5779 2 1 § 2. All past costs associated with implementing the provisions of 2 this act shall be borne by the town of Waterford. 3 § 3. This act shall take effect immediately. FISCAL NOTE. -- PURSUANT TO LEGISLATIVE LAW, SECTION 50: This Bill will allow the town of Waterford to reopen the provisions of Section 384-d together with Section 384-e of the Retirement and Social Security Law for police officer Michael Shudt. If this legislation is enacted during the 2015 legislative session, we anticipate that there will be an increase of approximately $5,820 in the annual contributions of the town of Waterford for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2016. In future years, this cost will vary as the billing rates and salary of Michael Shudt change. In addition to the annual contributions discussed above, there will be an immediate past service cost of approximately $134,000 which would be borne by the town of Waterford as a one-time payment. This estimate is based on the assumption that payment will be made on February 1, 2016.
