 IN ASSEMBLY

 ___________

 Introduced by M. of A. BURDICK -- read once and referred to the Commit-
 tee on Governmental Employees

 AN ACT to amend the retirement and social security law, in relation to
 calculating the earnings limitations for retired police officers
 employed part-time by certain municipalities

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

 1 Section 1. Section 212 of the retirement and social security law is
 2 amended by adding a new subdivision 4 to read as follows:
 3 4. Notwithstanding the provisions of subdivisions one and two of this
 4 section, such earnings limitations shall not apply to a retired police
 5 officer, who has retired after having twenty years of vested service in
 6 a police pension system that fully vests at twenty years, who is
 7 employed part-time as a police officer in a village or town with a popu-
 8 lation of less than seven thousand five hundred as determined by the
 9 most recent federal decennial census, where at least seventy percent of
 10 such village or town's active-duty police force, not including civilian
 11 staff, consists of part-time officers. Such part-time police officer
 12 shall be permitted to work up to five hundred twenty hours in any
 13 consecutive six-month period in a calendar year based on hours worked as
 14 reported by the village or town on a monthly basis, with no suspension
 15 or diminution of retirement allowance. Any village or town that hires a
 16 retired police officer pursuant to this subdivision shall report such
 17 officer's days worked and salary earned to the New York state and local
 18 police and fire retirement system on a monthly basis. For any such
 19 officer whose earnings exceed the earnings limitations in subdivisions
 20 one and two of this section, the village or town employing such officer
 21 shall contribute to the New York state and local police and fire retire-
 22 ment system a percentage of such officer's excess earnings equivalent to
 23 the normal contribution rate as described in paragraph one of subdivi-
 24 sion b of section three hundred twenty-three of this chapter.

 1 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
 FISCAL NOTE.--Pursuant to Legislative Law, Section 50:
 This bill would allow retired police officers to continue to receive
 their full retirement benefit when reemployed as a police officer on a
 part-time basis for up to 520 hours in any consecutive six-month period,
 when such employment is by a village or town where (1) the municipal
 population is less than 7,500, and (2) at least 70% of the police force
 is employed on a part-time basis. Such retired police officers must have
 retired from a twenty-year retirement plan to be eligible for this bene-
 fit. The village or town would be required to pay employer contributions
 on any salary paid to such retirees exceeding the post-retirement earn-
 ings limit, currently $35,000.
 Insofar as this bill affects the New York State and Local Police and
 Fire Retirement System (NYSLPFRS), if this bill
