  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,
the city of Mount Vernon, in the county of Westchester, a  participating
employer  in  the  New  York  state and local police and fire retirement
system, which previously elected to offer the optional  retirement  plan
established pursuant to section 384-d of the retirement and social secu-
rity  law to police officers employed by such city, is hereby authorized
to make participation in such plan available to Paul  D'Amore,  Christo-
pher  Grieco,  Wendell  Griffin, Erin Holly, Thomas Joy, Patsy Leone and
Jeremy Villanueva, police officers employed by the city of Mount Vernon,
who, on the effective date of this act are covered under the  provisions
of section 375-i of the retirement and social security law, and who, for
reasons  not  ascribable to their own negligence failed to make a timely
application to participate in such optional retirement plan. The city of
Mount Vernon may so elect by filing with the state  comptroller,  on  or
before June 30, 2011, a resolution of its legislative body together with
certification  that  any  such  police  officer  did  not bar himself or
herself from participation in such retirement plan as a result of his or
her own negligence. Thereafter, any such police officer may elect to  be
covered  by the provisions of section 384-d 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 comptroller on or before June 30, 2011.
  S 2. All costs associated with implementing the provisions of this act
shall be borne by the city of Mount Vernon.
  S 3. This act shall take effect immediately.
