AN ACT to authorize the village of Quogue, in the county of  Suffolk  to
  offer an optional twenty year retirement plan to police officer Robert
  J. Hammel

  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 contrary,
the village of Quogue, in the county of Suffolk, a participating employ-
er 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 patrolman
Robert J.  Hammel,  registration  number  OB01367-1,  a  police  officer
employed  by  the  village of Quogue, who, for reasons not ascribable to
his own negligence, failed to make a timely application  to  participate
in such optional twenty year retirement plan.  The village of Quogue may
so elect by filing with the state comptroller, on or before December 31,
2013,  a  resolution  of its town board together with certification that
such police officer did not  bar  himself  from  participation  in  such
retirement  plan  as  a  result of his own negligence.  Thereafter, such
police officer 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, 2014.

 EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
