BILL NUMBER: S4590
TITLE OF BILL :
An act in relation to granting Dennis P. Morris credit in the New York
state and local employees' retirement system
PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL :
To allow Dennis P. Morris to become a member of the retirement system
as of March 7, 1974 provided he files a written request with the
comptroller on or before December 31, 2009.
SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS :
Section 1 states that Dennis P. Morris was employed from March 7, 1974
through May 20, 2004. Through no negligence on his part Mr. Morris
did not become a member of the retirement system. This legislation
will give Mr. Morris an employment date of March 7, 1974.
JUSTIFICATION :
Through no negligence of his own Dennis Morris failed to become a
member of the retirement system when first employed by the department
of parks, recreation and historic preservation. This legislation
would erase this inequity and allow Mr. Morris to gain an employment
date as of March 7, 1974.

and ending May 20, 2004, shall be deemed to have joined such retirement
system on March 7, 1974 and shall be credited with service for the peri-
