AN ACT to authorize the village of Ellenville to offer an optional twen-
  ty year retirement plan to certain police officers

  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  contra-
ry,  the village of Ellenville, a participating employer in the New York
state and local police and  fire  retirement  system,  which  previously
elected  to  offer the optional twenty year retirement plan, established
pursuant to section 384-d of the retirement and social security law,  to
police  officers  employed  by  such  town, is hereby authorized to make
participation in such plan available to  Michael  Jeter,  LaMark  Logan,
Daniel Persell, Christopher Rosa, Robert Ross, and Vanessa Nixon-Tomlin,
police  officers employed by the Village of Ellenville, who, for reasons
not ascribable to their own negligence, failed to make a timely applica-
tion to participate in such optional twenty year  retirement  plan.  The
village of Ellenville may so elect by filing with the state comptroller,
on  or  before  December 31, 2012, a resolution of its local legislative
body together with certification that such police officers did  not  bar
themselves  from  participation  in  such retirement plan as a result of
their own negligence. Thereafter, such police officers may elect  to  be
covered  by the provisions of section 384-d of the retirement and social
security law, and shall be entitled to  the  full  rights  and  benefits
associated with coverage under such section, by filing a request to that
effect with the state comptroller on or before June 30, 2013.
  S   2.  All  past  service  costs  associated  with  implementing  the
provisions of this act shall be borne by the village of  Ellenville  and
may be amortized over a ten year period.
  S 3. This act shall take effect immediately.
  FISCAL NOTE.--Pursuant to Legislative Law, Section 50:
  This  bill  will  allow  the  Village  of  Ellenville  to  reopen  the
provisions of Section 384-d of the Retirement and  Social  Security  Law

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