   § 2. Section 10 of part A of chapter 361 of the laws of 2022, amending

 tees,  and  relating to implementing agreements between the state and an
 employee organization, is amended to read as follows:
   § 10. Location compensation for certain state officers  and  employees
 in   collective  negotiating  units.  Notwithstanding  any  inconsistent
 provisions of law, full-time annual salaried officers and employees,  as
 well  as  non-annual  salaried seasonal officers and employees who shall
 receive the compensation provided for pursuant  to  this  section  on  a
 A. 10528                            4
 
 prorated  basis,  except  non-annual salaried officers and employees who
 are not seasonal, in the collective negotiating units designated as  the
 administrative services unit, the institutional services unit, the oper-
 ational  services  unit,  or  the division of military and naval affairs
 unit established pursuant to article 14 of the civil service law,  whose
 principal place of employment or, in the case of a field employee, whose
 official station as determined in accordance with the regulations of the
 comptroller  is located: (1) in the county of Monroe and who were eligi-
 ble to receive location pay on March 31, 1985,  shall  receive  location
 pay  at the rate of $200 per year provided they continue to be otherwise
 eligible; (2) in the city of New York, or in  the  county  of  Rockland,
 Westchester,  Nassau or Suffolk shall, effective April 1, 2021, continue
 to receive a downstate adjustment at the annual rate of $3,026;  or  (3)
 in  the  county  of Dutchess, Putnam or Orange shall, effective April 1,
 2021, continue to receive a mid-Hudson adjustment at the annual rate  of
 $1,513.    Effective  April  1, 2023, in the city of New York, or in the
 county of Rockland, Westchester, Nassau or  Suffolk  such  amount  shall
 increase  to  an  annual  rate of $3,087; and in the county of Dutchess,
 Putnam or Orange such amount shall increase to an annual rate of $1,543.
 Effective April 1, 2024, in the city of New York, or in  the  county  of
 Rockland,  Westchester,  Nassau or Suffolk such amount shall increase to
 an annual rate of $3,400; and in  the  county  of  Dutchess,  Putnam  or

 or  employee's  basic  annual salary, and shall not affect or impair any
 performance advancements or other rights or benefits to which an officer
 or employee may be entitled by law,  provided,  however,  that  location
 payments  shall  be included as compensation for purposes of computation
 of overtime pay and for retirement purposes. For  the  sole  purpose  of
 continuing  eligibility for location pay in Monroe county, an officer or
 employee previously eligible to receive location pay on March  31,  1985
 who  is  on  an approved leave of absence or participates in an employer
 program to reduce  to  part-time  service  during  summer  months  shall

   5.  Notwithstanding  the  provisions  of subdivisions   two, three and
 four of this  section,  if  the basic annual salary  of  an  officer  or
 employee  to whom the provisions of this section apply is identical with
 the hiring rate,  job  rate, or step 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 of  the  salary
 grade  of his or her position on the effective dates  of  the  increases
 provided  in these  subdivisions,   such basic annual  salary  shall  be
 increased  to  the  hiring  rate,  step  1,  2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or job rate,
 respectively,  of  such salary grade as  contained  in  the  appropriate

 sion  1 of section 130 of the civil service law, as added by section one
 of this act, to  take  effect on  the  dates  provided  in subparagraphs
 1, 2 and 3 of such paragraph, respectively. The increases in basic annu-
 al salary provided by this subdivision shall be in lieu of any  increase
 in  basic annual salary provided for in subdivisions two, three and four
 of this section.
   6. Payments pursuant to the provisions of subdivision 6 of section 131
 of the civil service law for officers and  employees  entitled  to  such
 payments  to  whom the provisions of this section apply shall be payable

 tion  representing  employees  in the collective negotiating unit desig-
 nated as the rent regulation services negotiating unit.
   7. If an unencumbered position is one which if  encumbered,  would  be
 subject  to  the provisions of this section, the salary of such position
 shall be increased by the salary  increase  amounts  specified  in  this
 section.  If  a  position is created and filled by the appointment of an
 officer or employee who is subject to the provisions  of  this  section,
 the  salary  otherwise  provided for such position shall be increased in
 the same manner as though such position had been in existence but  unen-
 cumbered.  Notwithstanding  the provisions of this section, the director
 of the budget may reduce the salary of any such  position  which  is  or
 becomes vacant.
   8.  The  increases  in  salary provided in subdivisions two, three and
 four of  this section shall apply on a prorated basis  to  officers  and
 employees,  otherwise eligible to receive an increase in salary, who are
 paid on an  hourly or per diem basis, employees serving on  a  part-time
 or seasonal basis and employees paid on any basis other than at an annu-
 al  salary rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of subdi-
 visions five and six of this section shall not apply to employees  serv-
 ing  on  a  seasonal  basis, except as determined by the director of the
 budget.
   9. In order to provide for the officers and  employees  to  whom  this
 section  applies  who  are not allocated to salary grades, increases and
 payments pursuant to this  section in proportion to  those  provided  to
 persons to whom this section applies who are allocated to salary grades,
 the  director of the budget is authorized to add appropriate adjustments
 and/or payments to the compensation which such  officers  and  employees
 are  otherwise  entitled  to  receive.  The director of the budget shall
 issue certificates which shall contain schedules of  positions  and  the
 salaries  and/or  payments thereof for which adjustments and/or payments
 are made pursuant to the provisions of this subdivision, and a  copy  of
 each  such  certificate  shall  be filed with the state comptroller, the
 state department of civil service, the chairman of  the  senate  finance
 committee and the chairman of the assembly ways and means committee.
 A. 10528                            6
 
   10.  Notwithstanding  any of the foregoing provisions of this section,
 the provisions of this section shall not apply to officers or  employees
 paid on a fee schedule basis.
   11.  Notwithstanding  any  of the foregoing provisions of this section
 except subdivision one, any increase in compensation for any officer  or
 employee  appointed  to a lower graded position from a redeployment list
 pursuant to subdivision 1 of section 79 of the  civil  service  law  who
 continues  to receive his or her former salary pursuant to such subdivi-
 sion shall be determined on the basis  of  such  lower  graded  position
 provided, however, that the increases in salary provided in subdivisions
 two,  three  and  four of this section shall not cause such officer's or
 employee's salary to exceed the job rate of such lower graded position.
   12. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions of this section or
 any law to the contrary, any increase in compensation may be withheld in
 whole or in part from any  employee  to  whom  the  provisions  of  this
 section are applicable when, in the opinion of the director of the budg-
 et  and  the  director  of  employee  relations,  such  increase  is not
 warranted or is not appropriate for any reason.
   § 4. 1. Location compensation for certain state officers and employees
 in collective   negotiating   units.  Notwithstanding  any  inconsistent
 provisions  of  law, officers and employees, including seasonal officers
 and employees who shall receive the compensation provided  for  pursuant
 to  this  section  on  a  pro-rated basis, except part-time officers and
 employees, in the collective negotiating unit   designated as  the  rent
 regulation  services  negotiating unit, whose principal place of employ-
 ment or, in the case of a field  employee,  whose  official  station  as
 determined  in  accordance  with  the regulations of the comptroller, is
 located in the city of New York, or in the county of Rockland, Westches-
 ter, Nassau or Suffolk shall continue to receive a downstate  adjustment
 at  the  annual rate of $3,026. Such location payments shall increase to
 the following amounts:
   (a) Effective April 1, 2023: $3,087;
   (b) Effective April 1, 2024: $3,400; and
   (c) Effective April 1, 2025: $4,000.
   2. Such location payments shall be in addition to and shall not  be  a
 part  of  an  officer's or employee's basic annual salary, and shall not
 affect or impair any performance advancements or other rights  or  bene-
 fits  to  which an officer or employee may be entitled by law, provided,
 however, that location payments shall be included  as  compensation  for
 purposes of computation of overtime pay and for retirement purposes.
   § 5. 1. For employees in the rent regulation services unit, a one-time
 $3,000  signing bonus shall be paid to all eligible members of the unit.
 Such signing bonus shall not be part of basic annual salary.  Similarly,
 such  signing  bonus  shall  not  be subject to any salary increases and
 shall not be pensionable. Such signing bonus shall be prorated for those
 employees paid on any basis other than an annual basis.  Employees  paid
 on  a  part-time, hourly or per diem basis shall receive a signing bonus
 pro-rated on a basis reflecting the actual hours worked between December
 22, 2023 and April 24, 2024, for officers and employees on the  adminis-
 trative  payroll. To qualify, employees must be in continuous service in
 the Rent Regulation Services Unit between December 22,  2023  and  April
 24,  2024 as defined by paragraph (c) of subdivision 3 of section 130 of
 the civil service law. Employees who separate from state service between
 December 22, 2023 and April 24, 2024 shall  not  be  eligible  for  such
 signing  bonus unless they retire directly from active state employment.
 A. 10528                            7
 
 Such bonus shall be effective April 24, 2024 for officers and  employees
 on the administrative payroll.
   2.  Any  DC-37  represented employee that has already received a bonus
 payment pursuant to the collective bargaining agreement of another  unit
 or  as  a  management confidential employee shall be ineligible for this
 payment.
   § 6. Notwithstanding any other law to the contrary, where an agreement
 between the state and the employee organization that represents  employ-
 ees in the rent regulation services unit so provides, effective April 1,
 2025 longevity awards shall be paid in accordance with the terms of such
 agreement.
   § 7. Notwithstanding any other law to the contrary, where an agreement
 between  the state and the employee organization that represents employ-

 the  extent  that any agreement between the state and an employee organ-
 ization entered into pursuant to article 14 of the civil service law  so
 provides  on  behalf of  employees in the  collective  negotiating  unit
 designated as  the rent regulation services negotiating unit, the  state
 shall  contribute  an  amount designated in  such  agreement and for the
 period covered  by  such agreement to the  accounts  of  such  employees
 enrolled  for  dependent  care  deductions  pursuant to subdivision 7 of
 section 201-a of the state finance law. Such amounts shall be from funds
 appropriated in this act and shall not be part of  basic  annual  salary
 for overtime or retirement purposes.
   §  9. Notwithstanding any provision of law to the contrary, the appro-
 priations contained in this act shall be available to the state for  the
 payment  and  publication  of  grievance and arbitration settlements and

 tiating unit designated as the rent regulation services negotiating unit
 established pursuant to article 14 of the civil service law which shall,
 after April 2, 2023, have the responsibility for discussing and attempt-
 ing to resolve matters of mutual concern and implementing any agreements
 reached.
   §  11.  The  salary  increases,  benefit  modifications, and any other
 modifications to the terms and conditions of employment provided for  by
 this  act  for state employees in the collective negotiating unit desig-
 nated as the rent  regulations  services  negotiating  unit  established

 until  the  director  of  employee relations shall have delivered to the
 director of the budget and the  comptroller  a  letter  certifying  that
 there  is in effect with respect to such negotiating unit a collectively
 negotiated agreement, ratified by the  membership,  which  provides  for
 such increases and modifications and which are fully executed in writing
 with the state pursuant to article 14 of the civil service law.

 employee without regard to the reduction authorized by such article.
   § 14. Notwithstanding the provisions of any other section of this act,
 or  any  other  law,  pending  payment pursuant to this act of the basic
 annual salaries of incumbents of positions subject  to  this  act,  such
 incumbents shall receive, as partial compensation for services rendered,
