2023-S7714 - Summary

Restores 20 year service retirement for New York city police officers.

2023-S7714 - Sponsor Memo

                                 
BILL NUMBER: S7714

SPONSOR: CHU
 
TITLE OF BILL:

An act to amend the retirement and social security law, in relation to
the restoration of 20 year service retirement for New York city police
officers

 
PURPOSE:

The purpose of this bill is to restore the 20-year service retirement
for New York city police officers hired on or after July 2009

 
SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS:

Section 1: Amends subdivision 17 of § 501 of the Retirement and Social

Security Law to state that for police/fire members of the New York city
police pension fund, normal retirement age shall be the age at which a
member completes or would have completed twenty years of service.

Section 2: Amends subdivision d of § 503 of the Retirement and Social

Security Law to state that the normal service retirement benefit speci-
fied in § 505 of this Article shall be paid to police/fire members of
the New York city police pension fund, after twenty years of service.

Section 3: Amends § 505 of the Retirement and Social Security Law to add
a new subdivision d that states that notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in any other law, police/fire members of the New York city
police pension fund shall be eligible for a normal service retirement
benefit in lieu of an early service retirement benefit upon completing
twenty years of service pursuant to subdivision d of

§ 503 of this Article.

Section 4: Provides the effective date.

 
JUSTIFICATION:

This bill seeks to remedy a glaring inequity facing recently hired New
York City police officers. Throughout New York State, police officers
become eligible for a full-service retirement benefit of half of their
final salary after 20 years. And in New York City, police officers hired
prior to July 1.2009 become eligible for a full-service retirement bene-
fit after 20 years. However, under current law New York City police
officers hired on or after July 1, 2009 do not become eligible for a
full service retirement benefit until they have worked at least 22
years.

This inequity has played a role in the unprecedented crisis New York
City is experiencing in regarding the recruitment and retention of
police officers. With respect to retention, 2022 saw the most New York
City police officer resignations in at least two decades, including an
increase of more than 600% from 10 years ago. Departing police officers
regularly cite their inferior pensions and the additional service
requirement as reasons for joining other police departments.

With respect to recruitment, the NYPD has been unable to fill and gradu-
ate sufficient police academy classes.

These issues have a profound impact on both New York City police offi-
cers and New Yorkers. Many of the NYPD's best, brightest, and most
diverse officers are fleeing for neighboring jurisdictions, where they
not only are eligible for a 20-year service retirement, but can also
earn more wages, work less, and improve their quality of life. For simi-
lar reasons, promising young men and women interested in pursuing
careers in law enforcement are choosing to join other police agencies or
pursue other careers altogether. The loss of these talented individu-
als-and the attendant impact on remaining officers who are forced to
work overtime due to staffing shortages-makes New York City less safe.
And, it has a direct financial impact on the New York taxpayer, both
through the significant resources wasted on training officers who soon
depart (costs for such training are estimated to be in excess of
$100,000 per recruit), as well as the additional overtime costs incurred
due to lack of adequate staffing.

Finally, and importantly, this bill would merely restore the 20-year
service retirement for all New York City police officers as it existed
prior to the veto of the Tier 2 extender by Governor David Paterson in
2009, which was never intended to take away this meaningful benefit for
New York City police officers.

   THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-

   Section 1. Subdivision 17 of section 501 of the retirement and  social
 security  law,  as amended by chapter 18 of the laws of 2012, is amended

   17. "Normal retirement  age"  shall  be  age  sixty-two,  for  general

 city  police/fire  revised  plan  members,  New  York   city   uniformed
 correction/sanitation revised plan members and investigator revised plan
 members shall not be eligible to retire for service prior to the attain-
 ment of twenty years of credited service.
   §  3. Section 505 of the retirement and social security law is amended
 by adding a new subdivision d to read as follows:
   D.  NOTWITHSTANDING  ANYTHING  TO  THE  CONTRARY  IN  ANY  OTHER  LAW,
 POLICE/FIRE  MEMBERS  OF  THE NEW YORK CITY POLICE PENSION FUND SHALL BE
 ELIGIBLE FOR A NORMAL SERVICE RETIREMENT BENEFIT IN  LIEU  OF  AN  EARLY
 SERVICE  RETIREMENT  BENEFIT  UPON  COMPLETING  TWENTY  YEARS OF SERVICE
 PURSUANT TO SUBDIVISION D OF SECTION FIVE HUNDRED THREE OF THIS ARTICLE.
   § 4. This act shall take effect immediately.
   FISCAL NOTE.--Pursuant to Legislative Law, Section 50:
   SUMMARY OF BILL: This proposed legislation would amend  Sections  501,
 503,  and 505 of the Retirement and Social Security Law (RSSL) to reduce
 the Normal Retirement Age for Tier 3  original,  revised,  and  enhanced
 plan members of the New York City Police Pension Fund (POLICE) to be the
 age  at which a member completes or would have completed twenty years of
 service.
   Effective Date: Upon enactment.
   IMPACT ON BENEFITS: Currently, Tier 3 POLICE members who  retire  with
 at  least  20 years of service are eligible to receive an annual benefit
 that is equal to 42% of Final Average Salary (FAS), plus  0.33%  of  FAS
 for  each  month  of  service (up to 24 months) in excess of 20 years of
 service, resulting in a benefit of 50% of FAS after 22 years of service.
   Under the proposed legislation, Tier 3 POLICE members who retire  with
 at  least  20  years  of  service would be eligible to receive an annual
 benefit that is equal to 50% of FAS.
   The annual benefit in either case would be subject to a Social Securi-
 ty Offset commencing at age 62, which is not affected  by  the  proposed
 legislation.  There  is  also  no  change  to the benefit provisions for
 deferred vested members who terminate employment  prior  to  earning  20
 years of service.
   FINANCIAL  IMPACT:  Based on the census data and the actuarial assump-
 tions and methods described  herein,  the  enactment  of  this  proposed
 legislation  would  result in an increase in the present value of future
 employer contributions of approximately $82.9 million  for  the  current
 population.
   The   financial  impact  will  increase  as  the  impacted  population
 increases over time. The estimate of the  increase  in  annual  employer
 contributions  for Fiscal Years 2024 through 2028 are shown in the table
 below.
                Fiscal                Increase in
                Year                Employer Contributions
                                      ($ Millions)
                2024                    $ 10.7
                2025                    $ 11.5
                2026                    $ 12.4
                2027                    $ 13.3
                2028                    $ 14.4
   New UAL attributable to benefit changes are generally  amortized  over
 the remaining working lifetime of those impacted by the benefit changes.
 The  remaining working lifetime for this group is approximately 18 years
 and the increase in UAL was therefore amortized over an  18-year  period
 (17  payments  under  the  One-Year  Lag Methodology) using level dollar
 payments.
 S. 7714                             3
 
   CENSUS DATA: The estimates presented herein are based  on  the  census
 data  used  in the June 30, 2022 actuarial valuation of POLICE to deter-
 mine the Preliminary Fiscal Year 2024 employer contributions.
   There  are  19,375 active Tier 3 members of POLICE as of June 30, 2022
 and they have an  average  age  of  approximately  32.2  years,  average
 service  of  approximately  5.7 years, and an average salary of approxi-
 mately $101,600.
   ACTUARIAL ASSUMPTIONS AND METHODS: The estimates presented herein have
 been calculated based on the actuarial assumptions and methods used  for
 the Preliminary Fiscal Year 2024 employer contributions of POLICE except
 for  adjustments to the retirement rates to reflect changes in eligibil-
 ity for service retirement associated with the proposed legislation.
   New entrants were projected to replace the members expected  to  leave
 the active population to maintain a steady-state population. New entrant
 demographics were developed based on data for recent new hires and actu-
 arial judgement.
   For  the  purposes of this Fiscal Note, it is assumed that the changes
 would be reflected for the first time in the  June  30,  2022  actuarial
 valuation  of POLICE used to determine employer contributions for Fiscal
 Year 2024.
   RISK AND UNCERTAINTY: The costs presented in this Fiscal  Note  depend
 highly  on the realization of the actuarial assumptions used, demograph-
 ics of the impacted population, and other factors  such  as  investment,
 contribution,  and other risks. If actual experience deviates from actu-
 arial assumptions, the actual costs could differ  from  those  presented
 herein.
   Costs  are also dependent on the actuarial methods used, and therefore
 different actuarial methods could produce different results. Quantifying
 these risks is beyond the scope of this Fiscal Note.
   Not measured in this Fiscal Note are the following:
   *  The  initial  additional  administrative  costs  to  implement  the
 proposed legislation.
   *  Pension  costs  for  future  members  of  POLICE  hired on or after
 7/1/2026.
   * The impact of this  proposed  legislation  on  Other  Postemployment
 Benefit costs.
   STATEMENT  OF  ACTUARIAL  OPINION:  I, Marek Tyszkiewicz, am the Chief
 Actuary for, and independent of, the New York  City  Retirement  Systems
 and  Pension  Funds. I am an Associate of the Society of Actuaries and a
 Member of the American Academy of Actuaries. I am a member of NYCERS but
 do not believe it impairs my objectivity and I  meet  the  Qualification
 Standards  of  the American Academy of Actuaries to render the actuarial
 opinion contained herein.   To the best of  my  knowledge,  the  results
 contained  herein  have  been  prepared  in  accordance  with  generally
 accepted actuarial principles and  procedures  and  with  the  Actuarial
 Standards of Practice issued by the Actuarial Standards Board.
   FISCAL  NOTE  IDENTIFICATION:  This  Fiscal Note 2023-72 dated June 5,
 2023 was prepared by the Chief Actuary for  the  New  York  City  Police
 Pension  Fund.  This  estimate  is intended for use only during the 2023
 Legislative Session.

   Unfunded  Accrued Liability increases were amortized over the expected
 remaining working lifetime of those  impacted  by  the  benefit  changes
 using level dollar payments.
   CENSUS  DATA:  The estimates presented herein are based on preliminary
 census data collected as of June 30,  2023.  The  census  data  for  the
 impacted population is summarized below.

                                                 POLICE
              Active Members
              - Number Count:                    20,176
              - Average Age:                     32.8
              - Average Service:                 6.1
              - Average Salary:                  107,600
 
   IMPACT ON MEMBER BENEFITS: Currently, Tier 3 POLICE members who retire
 with  at  least  20  years  of service are eligible to receive an annual
 benefit that is equal to 42% of Final Average Salary (FAS),  plus  0.33%
 of FAS for each month of service (up to 24 months) in excess of 20 years
 of  service,  resulting  in  a  benefit  of 50% of FAS after 22 years of
 service.
   Under the proposed legislation, Tier 3 POLICE members who retire  with
 at  least  20  years  of  service would be eligible to receive an annual
 benefit that is equal to 50% of FAS.
   ASSUMPTIONS AND METHODS: The  estimates  presented  herein  have  been
 calculated  based  on the Revised 2021 Actuarial Assumptions and Methods
 of the impacted retirement systems except for:
   * Retirement rates were adjusted to reflect the earlier payability  of
 the service retirement benefit associated with the proposed legislation.
   *  New  entrants were assumed to replace exiting members so that total
 payroll increases by 3% each year for impacted groups. New entrant demo-
 graphics were developed based on data for recent new hires and actuarial
 judgement.
   RISK AND UNCERTAINTY: The costs presented in this Fiscal  Note  depend
 highly  on  the  actuarial  assumptions, methods, and models used, demo-
 graphics of the impacted population and other factors  such  as  invest-
 ment,  contribution, and other risks. If actual experience deviates from
 actuarial  assumptions,  the  actual  costs  could  differ  from   those
 presented  herein.  Quantifying  these risks is beyond the scope of this
 Fiscal Note.
   This Fiscal Note is intended to measure  pension-related  impacts  and
 does  not  include other potential costs (e.g., administrative and Other
 Postemployment Benefits).
