 AN ACT in relation to granting retroactive tier V membership in the New
 York state and local employees' retirement system to Marca McClenon

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary,
 2 Marca McClenon, a tier VI member of the New York state and local employ-
 3 ees' retirement system who was employed as a part-time employee with the
 4 Yorktown library beginning on March 26, 2012 and who, through no fault
 5 of her own, did not become a member of the New York state and local
 6 employees' retirement system on March 26, 2012 when she became eligible
 7 for membership in such system, shall be deemed to have a date of member-
 8 ship with the New York state and local employees' retirement system of
 9 March 26, 2012 if she shall file an application therefore with the state
 10 comptroller within one year of the effective date of this act. Upon the
 11 receipt of such application, Marca McClenon shall be granted tier V
 12 status in the New York state and local employees' retirement system and
 13 shall be eligible for all the rights and benefits thereof.
 14 § 2. All past service costs of implementing the provisions of this act
 15 shall be borne by the Yorktown library, and there shall be no refund of
 16 member contributions to Marca McClenon.
 17 § 3. This act shall take effect immediately.
 FISCAL NOTE.--Pursuant to Legislative Law, Section 50:
 This bill would grant Tier 5 status in the New York State and Local
 Employees' Retirement System to Marca McClenon, a current Tier 6 member
 employed by the town of Yorktown, by changing their date of membership
 to March 26, 2012.
 There will be no refund of member contributions.
 We estimate that town of Yorktown's annual contributions will increase
 $4,600 beginning FYE 2027. Annual costs will vary as the billing rates
 and salary of Marca McClenon change.

 EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
 [ ] is old law to be omitted.

 In addition, there will be an immediate past service cost of $28,600
 borne by the town of Yorktown as a one-time payment. This cost assumes
 that payment will be made on February 1, 2027.
