BILL NUMBER: S8801

SPONSOR: GALLIVAN
 
TITLE OF BILL:

An act to amend the retirement and social security law, in relation to
certain benefits of sheriffs, undersheriffs, deputy sheriffs and
correction officers with credited service of more than twenty-five years

 
PURPOSE:

Provides an enhanced pension benefit for a Sheriff, Undersheriff, Deputy
Sheriffs' or Correction Officers working in a Sheriffs' Department,
should the applicable county elect to provide such a benefit.

 
SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:

Section one amends subdivision c of section 89-p of the RSSL to require
that such members be entitled to an additional retirement allowance
equal to one-sixtieth of such member's final average salary for each
year of creditable service in excess of twenty-five years, except that
such pension shall not exceed three-quarters of such member's final

average salary.

Section 2. Makes corresponding amendments to subdivision m of section
604 of the RSSL.

Section 3. Requires all costs of implementing the provisions of this act
must be borne by the county that makes election to do so, pursuant to
subdivision j of section 89-p of the RSSL.

Section 4. Notwithstands the provision of law under RSSL section 25
governing appropriations in retirement bills.

Section 5. Establishes the effective date.

 
JUSTIFICATION:

Over the past several years, attrition rates among the ranks of New
York's law enforcement agencies, particularly county Sheriffs' depart-
ments, have steadily increased and efforts to attract candidates to a
career in policing and corrections has too been a challenge.

To address the increasing exodus of police and correction officers
employed by a county Sheriffs' Department, this bill would provide an
enhanced pension benefit for eligible Sheriffs' Department employees who
remain on the job past 25-years of service, consistent with the enhanced
benefits afforded to local law enforcement and State police agency
members.  Importantly, such an enhanced pension benefit would only be
made available should a county choose to opt in.

Experienced law enforcement personnel are a true asset to the agencies
themselves and to the communities in which they serve. This bill recog-
nizes the necessity of their continued public service.

 
LEGISLATIVE HISTORY:

New bill.

 
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:

 salary times years of credited service at the completion of  twenty-five
 years  of  service  as  such  sheriff,  undersheriff,  deputy sheriff or
 correction officer, [but not exceeding one-half of his or her]  PLUS  AN
 ADDITIONAL  RETIREMENT  ALLOWANCE EQUAL TO ONE-SIXTIETH OF SUCH MEMBER'S
 final average salary FOR EACH YEAR OF  CREDITED  SERVICE  IN  EXCESS  OF
 TWENTY-FIVE  YEARS,  PROVIDED, HOWEVER THAT THE PENSION PAYABLE PURSUANT
 TO SUCH SECTION SHALL NOT EXCEED THREE-QUARTERS OF SUCH  MEMBER'S  FINAL
 AVERAGE SALARY.
   §   3.  All  past  service  costs  associated  with  implementing  the
 provisions of this act shall be borne  by  the  county  that  makes  the
 election provided for in subdivision j of section 89-p of the retirement
 and social security law.
   §  4. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary, none
 of the provisions of this act shall  be  subject  to  the  appropriation
 requirement of section 25 of the retirement and social security law.
   §  5.  This  act  shall take effect immediately and shall apply to all
 qualified members pursuant to sections one  and  two  of  this  act  who
 retire on or after such date.
   FISCAL NOTE.--Pursuant to Legislative Law, Section 50:
   This  bill  would modify the service retirement benefit for members of
 the New York State and  Local  Employees'  Retirement  System  (NYSLERS)
 covered  by the provisions of Retirement and Social Security Law section
 89-p.  The modified service retirement benefit will be one-half of final
 average salary (FAS) upon completion of twenty-five years of  creditable
 service with additional sixtieths for each year of creditable service in
 excess  of  twenty-five  years but not more than fifteen such years. The
 current service retirement benefit is one-half of FAS upon completion of
 twenty-five years of creditable service.
   If this bill is enacted during the 2024 Legislative Session, we antic-
 ipate that there will be an increase of approximately  $3.8  million  in
 the  annual  contributions  of the affected counties for the fiscal year
 ending March 31, 2025. In future  years  this  cost  will  vary  but  is
 expected to average 1.1% of salary annually.
   In addition to the annual contributions discussed above, there will be
 an immediate past service cost of approximately $34.9 million which will
 be  shared  by  the  affected  counties  and will be borne as a one-time
 payment. This estimate assumes that payment will be made on February  1,
 2025.
   Detailed costs with a breakdown by affected counties are as follows:

PURPOSE:

Provides an enhanced pension benefit for a Sheriff, Undersheriff, Deputy
Sheriffs' or Correction Officers working in a Sheriffs' Department,

SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:

Section one amends subdivision c of section 89-p of the RSSL to require
that such members be entitled to an additional retirement allowance
equal to one-sixtieth of such member's final average salary for each
year of creditable service in excess of twenty-five years, except that
such pension shall not exceed three-quarters of such member's final

average salary.

Section 2. Makes corresponding amendments to subdivision m of section
604 of the RSSL.

Section 3. Requires all costs of implementing the provisions of this act

 of  the  provisions  of  this  act shall be subject to the appropriation
 requirement of section 25 of the retirement and social security law.
   § 5. This act shall take effect immediately and  shall  apply  to  all
 qualified  members  pursuant  to  sections  one  and two of this act who
 retire on or after such date.
   FISCAL NOTE.--Pursuant to Legislative Law, Section 50:
   This bill would modify the service retirement benefit for  members  of
 the  New  York  State  and  Local Employees' Retirement System (NYSLERS)
 covered by the provisions of Retirement and Social Security Law  section
 89-p.  The modified service retirement benefit will be one-half of final
 average salary (FAS) upon completion of twenty-five years of  creditable
 service with additional sixtieths for each year of creditable service in
 excess  of  twenty-five  years but not more than fifteen such years. The
 current service retirement benefit is one-half of FAS upon completion of
 twenty-five years of creditable service.
   If this bill is enacted during the 2024 Legislative Session, we antic-
 ipate that there will be an increase of approximately  $4.4  million  in
 the  annual  contributions  of the affected counties for the fiscal year
 ending March 31, 2025. In future  years  this  cost  will  vary  but  is
 expected to average 1.1% of salary annually.
   In addition to the annual contributions discussed above, there will be
 an immediate past service cost of approximately $41.2 million which will
 be  shared  by  the  affected  counties  and will be borne as a one-time
 payment. This estimate assumes that payment will be made on February  1,
 2025.
   Detailed costs with a breakdown by affected counties are as follows:
