§ 2. Section 10 of part A of chapter 361 of the laws of 2022, amending
the civil service law and the state finance law relating to compensation
and other terms and conditions of employment of certain state officers
and employees, to authorize funding of joint labor-management commit-
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
S. 9821 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
Orange such amount shall increase to an annual rate of $1,650. EFFECTIVE
APRIL 1, 2025, 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 $4,000; AND IN THE COUNTY OF DUTCHESS, PUTNAM OR ORANGE SUCH
AMOUNT SHALL INCREASE TO AN ANNUAL RATE OF $2,000. 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 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
continue to be eligible for said location pay upon return to full-time
state service in Monroe county.

S. 9821 5
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
salary schedules in subparagraphs 1, 2 and 3 of paragraph e of subdivi-
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
in accordance with the terms of an agreement reached pursuant to article
14 of the civil service law between the state and an employee organiza-
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.
S. 9821 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
