 AN ACT to authorize the county of Monroe to  offer  an  optional  twenty
   year  retirement  plan to Gregory M. Prokop, a deputy sheriff employed
   by such county
 
   THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND  ASSEM-
 BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
 
   Section 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary,
 the  county  of  Monroe,  a participating employer in the New York state
 employees' retirement system, which has elected to  offer  the  optional
 twenty year retirement plan, established pursuant to article 14-B of the
 retirement  and social security law, to deputy sheriffs employed by such
 county, is hereby authorized to make participation in such  plan  avail-
 able  to  Gregory  M. Prokop, a deputy sheriff employed by the county of
 Monroe with a start date of  October  8,  1991,  who,  for  reasons  not
 ascribable to his own negligence, failed to make a timely application to
 participate  in such optional twenty year plan contained in article 14-B
 of the retirement and social security law. The county of Monroe  may  so
 elect  by filing with the state comptroller, on or before 180 days after
 this act shall have become a law, a resolution  of  its  governing  body
 together  with  certification that such deputy sheriff did not bar them-
 self from participation in the retirement plan as a result of their  own
 negligence.    Thereafter, such deputy sheriff may individually elect to
 be covered by the provisions of sections 552 and 553 of  the  retirement
 and  social security law, and the retirement system shall credit service
 from October 8, 1991 to present  under  sections  552  and  553  of  the
 retirement and social security law. Such member may effectuate by filing
 an  election with the retirement system within one year of the effective
 date of this act.
   § 2. All employer past service costs associated with implementing  the
 provisions of this act shall be borne by the county of Monroe and may be
 amortized over a five-year period.
   § 3. This act shall take effect immediately.
   FISCAL NOTE.--Pursuant to Legislative Law, Section 50:
 
  EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                       [ ] is old law to be omitted.
