Go to top STATE OF NEW YORK ________________________________________________________________________ 7209 2021-2022 Regular Sessions IN SENATE June 7, 2021 ___________ Introduced by Sen. KENNEDY -- read twice and ordered printed, and when printed to be committed to the Committee on Rules AN ACT granting a retroactive retirement date of August 5, 2010 from the New York state and local police and fire retirement system for Cariol Horne 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 Cariol Horne, who is a member of the New York state and local police and 3 fire retirement system, and was employed by the city of Buffalo police 4 department as a police officer, shall be deemed eligible for a service 5 retirement benefit effective August 5, 2010. Due to no fault of her own, 6 Ms. Horne was ineligible to file for her service retirement benefit with 7 the New York state and local police and fire retirement system on August 8 5, 2010, based on her wrongful termination from the city of Buffalo 9 police department. At the time of her termination she was ineligible to 10 qualify for a service retirement benefit because she did not have twenty 11 qualifying years of service credit necessary to retire under her special 12 retirement plan established pursuant to section 384-d of the retirement 13 and social security law. On April 13, 2021, a grave injustice was 14 corrected when Cariol Horne's termination was vacated and she was subse- 15 quently reinstated to the Buffalo police department for the period of 16 July 26, 2008 through August 4, 2010, which provided her with the neces- 17 sary twenty years of qualifying service credit required under her 18 special plan. Within one year from the effective date of this act, 19 Cariol Horne may file with the New York state and local police retire- 20 ment system an application for service retirement benefits with an 21 effective date of retirement of August 5, 2010. Once such application is 22 received, any rights or benefits payable to Ms. Horne shall be retroac- 23 tive to the effective date of her retirement. Upon receipt of such 24 request, the New York state and local police and fire retirement system, EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [] is old law to be omitted. LBD11791-02-1S. 7209 2 1 shall pay Cariol Horne the retirement benefits she otherwise would have 2 received if she had retired on August 5, 2010, without interest. 3 § 2. All past service costs associated with implementing this act 4 shall be borne by the city of Buffalo. 5 § 3. This act shall take effect immediately. FISCAL NOTE.--Pursuant to Legislative Law, Section 50: This bill would provide police officer Cariol Horne a service retire- ment benefit commencing August 5, 2010. Currently, Officer Horne is entitled to a service retirement benefit commencing April 9, 2019. If this bill is enacted during the 2021 legislative session, there will be an immediate past service cost of approximately $300,000 which will be borne by the City of Buffalo as a one-time payment. This esti- mate is based on the assumption that payment will be made on February 1, 2022. Summary of relevant resources: Membership data as of March 31, 2020 was used in measuring the impact of the proposed change, the same data used in the April 1, 2020 actuari- al valuation. Distributions and other statistics can be found in the 2020 Report of the Actuary and the 2020 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. The actuarial assumptions and methods used are described in the 2020 Annual Report to the Comptroller on Actuarial Assumptions, and the Codes, Rules and Regulations of the State of New York: Audit and Control.
