AN  ACT  to authorize the county of Orleans, to offer an optional twenty
  year retirement plan to deputies Shannon E. Brett and James  A.  DeFi-
  lipps

  THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  Section 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary,
in the county of Orleans, a participating employer in the New York state
and local employee retirement system, which previously elected to  offer
the  optional  twenty  year  retirement  plan,  established  pursuant to
section 553 of the retirement  and  social  security  law,  to  deputies
employed  by  such county, is hereby authorized to make participation in
such plan available to Shannon E. Brett and James A.  DeFilipps,  deputy
sheriffs  employed  by  the  county  of    Orleans, who, for reasons not
ascribable to their own negligence failed to make a  timely  application
to  participate in such optional twenty year retirement plan. The county
of Orleans may so elect by filing with  the  state  comptroller,  on  or
before  December  31,  2009, a resolution of its governing body together
with certification that such deputy did not  bar  himself  from  partic-
ipation  in  such  retirement  plan  as  a result of his own negligence.
Thereafter, such deputy may elect to be covered  by  the  provisions  of
section  553  of  the  retirement  and social security law, and shall be
entitled to the full rights and benefits associated with coverage  under
such  section,  by  filing a request to that effect with the state comp-
troller on or before June 30, 2010.
  S 2. All employer costs associated with implementing the provisions of
this act shall be borne by the county of Orleans.
  S 3. This act shall take effect immediately.
  FISCAL NOTE.--Pursuant to Legislative Law, Section 50:

 EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                      [ ] is old law to be omitted.
