AN ACT to amend the retirement and social security law, in  relation  to
  the  employment  of police officers in the town of Southampton; and to
  repeal certain provisions of such law relating thereto

  THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND  ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  Section 1. Subdivision m of section 384-d of the retirement and social
security  law  is  REPEALED  and a new subdivision m is added to read as
follows:
  M. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY INCONSISTENT PROVISION  OF  LAW,  IF  THE  TOWN
BOARD  OF  THE  TOWN  OF SOUTHAMPTON ELECTS TO MAKE THE BENEFITS OF THIS
SECTION AVAILABLE TO THE MEMBERS OF ITS POLICE DEPARTMENT,  EACH  MEMBER
OF  SUCH  DEPARTMENT  SHALL BE SEPARATED FROM SERVICE UPON COMPLETION OF
TWENTY YEARS OF SERVICE, PROVIDED, HOWEVER,  THAT  THE  TOWN  BOARD  MAY
PERMIT  A  MEMBER  TO  CONTINUE  IN SERVICE ON AN ANNUAL BASIS AFTER THE
COMPLETION OF TWENTY YEARS OF SERVICE, BUT IN NO EVENT SHALL SUCH ANNUAL
SERVICE BE CONTINUED AFTER A MEMBER HAS ATTAINED AGE  FIFTY-FIVE  UNLESS
SUCH  MEMBER  HAS  NOT ATTAINED TWENTY YEARS OF SERVICE, EXCEPT HOWEVER,
THAT MEMBERS OF SUCH DEPARTMENT WHO HOLD THE RANK OF SERGEANT OR  HIGHER
WITHIN  SUCH  DEPARTMENT MAY BE PERMITTED BY THE TOWN BOARD TO REMAIN IN
SERVICE UNTIL THE MEMBER HAS ATTAINED AGE SIXTY.
  S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
  FISCAL NOTE.--Pursuant to Legislative Law, Section 50:
  This bill will amend Subdivision (m) of Section 384-d of  the  Retire-
ment  and  Social  Security  Law  so  as  to  not force a police officer
employed by the Town of Southampton to retire  after  attaining  age  55
without 20 years of service.
  If this bill is enacted, there will be no cost.
  This estimate, dated January 7, 2011, and intended for use only during
the  2011  Legislative  Session, is Fiscal Note No. 2011-81, prepared by
the Actuary for the New York State and Local Police and Fire  Retirement
System.
