 AN ACT to authorize Scott Hoag to receive certain service credit under
 section 384-d of the retirement and social security law

 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 Scott Hoag, a member of the New York state and local police and fire
 3 retirement system, who is employed as a police officer with the city of
 4 Rome, and who, through no fault of his own, failed to file a timely
 5 application to participate in the special twenty-year retirement plan
 6 contained in section 384-d of the retirement and social security law
 7 resulting in the crediting of his service with the city of Rome in the
 8 general retirement plan contained in section 375-i of such law, shall be
 9 given full credit in the special twenty-year retirement plan upon the
 10 election of the city of Rome to assume the additional cost of such
 11 service credit. The city of Rome may so elect by filing with the state
 12 comptroller, within six months from the effective date of this act, a
 13 resolution of its local legislative body together with certification
 14 that such police officer did not bar himself from participation in such
 15 retirement plan as a result of his own negligence. Thereafter, such
 16 police officer may elect to be covered by the provisions of section
 17 384-d of the retirement and social security law by filing a request to
 18 that effect with the state comptroller within six months from the effec-
 19 tive date of such resolution.
 20 § 2. All employer past service costs associated with implementing the
 21 provisions of this act shall be borne by the city of Rome and may be
 22 amortized over a ten-year period.
 23 § 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.

 S. 8088 2

 This bill would allow the City of Rome to reopen the provisions of
 section 384-d, together with section 384-e, of the Retirement and Social
 Security Law for police officer Scott Hoag.
 If this bill is enacted during the 2025 Legislative Session, we antic-
 ipate that there will be an increase of approximately $13,000 in the
 annual contributions of the City of Rome for the fiscal year ending
 March 31, 2026. In future years this cost will vary as the billing rates
 and salary of Scott Hoag change.
 In addition to the annual contributions discussed above, there will be
 an immediate past service cost of approximately
