§ 2049-f. Transfer of officers and employees. Any officer or employee
of the town under civil service who is selected by the authority may,
with the consent of the town supervisor, be transferred to the authority
and shall be eligible for such transfer and appointment, without
examination, to applicable offices, positions and employment under the
authority. The salary or compensation of any such officer or employee,
after such transfer, shall be paid by the authority. Any such officers
or employees so transferred to the authority pursuant to this section,
who are members of or benefit under any existing pension or retirement
fund or system, shall continue to have all rights, privileges,
obligations and status with respect to such fund or system as are now
prescribed by law, but during the period of their employment by the
authority, all contributions to such funds or system shall be paid by
the authority. All such officers or employees so transferred to the
authority who have been appointed to positions under the rules and
classifications of the personnel officer of the town shall have the same
status with respect thereto after transfer to the authority as they had
under their original appointment.
