 Introduced  by Sen. GALLIVAN -- read twice and ordered printed, and when
   printed to be committed to the Committee on Education
 
 AN ACT to amend the retirement and social security law, in  relation  to
   annual  earnings  limitations  for retired police officers employed as
   school resource officers
 
   THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND  ASSEM-
 BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
 
   Section  1.  Section  212 of the retirement and social security law is
 amended by adding a new subdivision 4 to read as follows:
   4. NOTWITHSTANDING THE PROVISIONS OF SUBDIVISIONS ONE AND TWO OF  THIS
 SECTION,  SUCH  ANNUAL EARNINGS LIMITATIONS FOR A RETIRED POLICE OFFICER
 EMPLOYED BY A SCHOOL DISTRICT IN EITHER THE CLASSIFIED  OR  UNCLASSIFIED
 SERVICE  AS  A  SCHOOL  RESOURCE  OFFICER, SCHOOL SAFETY OFFICER, SCHOOL
 SECURITY OFFICER OR ANY OTHER SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR POSITION  OR  OFFICE
 THAT  IS  DESIGNED  TO PROVIDE SAFETY AND/OR SECURITY ON SCHOOL GROUNDS,
 PROVIDED THAT SUCH RETIRED POLICE OFFICER IS DULY  QUALIFIED,  COMPETENT
 AND  PHYSICALLY  FIT  FOR  PERFORMANCE  OF THE DUTIES OF THE POSITION IN
 WHICH HE OR SHE IS TO BE EMPLOYED AS DETERMINED BY THE  SCHOOL  DISTRICT
 AND IS PROPERLY CERTIFIED WHERE SUCH CERTIFICATION IS REQUIRED, SHALL BE
 $50,000 FOR THE YEAR 2018 AND THEREAFTER.
   § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
   FISCAL NOTE.--Pursuant to Legislative Law, Section 50:
   This  bill  will  allow  retired  police  officers to be employed by a
 school district as a school safety officer, school security  officer  or
 any  other  substantially  similar position for an annual salary of less
 than $50,000 and continue to  receive  their  full  retirement  benefit.
 Currently, this privilege is only allowed to retired police officers who
 are employed as a school resource officer.
   If  this bill is enacted, insofar as it will affect the New York State
 and Local Police and Fire Retirement System, we expect few  retirees  to
 be affected. There would be negligible additional annual costs.

   The  membership  data  used  in  measuring  the impact of the proposed
 change was the same as that used in the March 31, 2016  actuarial  valu-
