AI Summary
This bill modifies the rules for the Municipal Police Employees' Retirement System, specifically concerning when a participating employer, such as a city or town, is considered to have partially dissolved its police department. Previously, a partial dissolution was recognized if the number of participating employees dropped by at least fifty from the previous year. This bill increases that threshold to one hundred employees. This change is significant because it impacts how the retirement system handles the unfunded accrued liability, which is the difference between the system's promised benefits and its current assets, when a police department shrinks considerably.
