Bill > A2286

This bill establishes eligibility for enrollment in the Public Employees' Retirement System (PERS) and subsequent retirement benefits for certain county fire instructors under certain conditions. Specifically, the bill grants service credit and membership in PERS to fire instructors employed by a county on the effective date of the bill, who had continuous membership in the system, performed service as a fire instructor, received a salary of over $1,500 annually, and were permanent civil service employees. The bill also allows individuals who were previously enrolled in PERS for service as a county fire instructor but were later notified that such service was ineligible, to be granted service credit for that period, provided they repay any contributions and interest that were returned when their membership was determined ineligible.
