AI Summary

This bill enables public employers to offer a temporary retirement incentive to eligible public employees who are members of a retirement system. Specifically, the bill allows public employees who are at least 50 years old with 25 years of service, or at least 55 years old with 10 years of service, to retire during a designated open period without the usual early retirement reduction in their pension benefits. Public employers, including state agencies, the legislature, and local governments, can elect to offer this retirement incentive by passing a resolution or local law. The costs of the pension benefits provided under this incentive will be paid by the participating employers over a period of up to 5 years.
