Bill > H2861

This bill is a special legislative measure designed to specifically address Walter L. Guertin's pension calculation under Massachusetts General Law Chapter 32. The bill requires the Attleboro Retirement Board to calculate Guertin's retirement allowance based on thirty-two years of creditable service, as of his retirement date of November 17, 2017, despite any existing provisions in sections 4(2)(b) and 4(2)(c) of Chapter 32 that might otherwise limit or calculate his pension differently. Additionally, the bill mandates that the Attleboro Retirement Board retroactively pay Guertin any pension amounts that were owed between his retirement date and the passage of this act, with the retirement allowance still subject to the standard provisions of section 103 of Chapter 32. This type of individual pension adjustment bill is relatively uncommon and appears to be tailored to address a specific circumstance in Guertin's retirement calculation.
