Bill > A09576

This bill authorizes a retirement benefit for certain members employed by Nassau County, specifically those with titles such as correction recruit, correction officer, correction corporal, correction sergeant, correction lieutenant, or correction captain, allowing them to retire after thirty years of service with a retirement allowance equal to sixty percent of their final average salary, which is the average of their highest five years of earnings. This is an increase from the previous provision that allowed retirement after twenty-five years of service with a retirement allowance equal to fifty percent of their final average salary. The bill also clarifies that Nassau County will bear all costs associated with implementing these changes and that these costs may be spread over ten years, and it specifies that the act takes effect immediately and applies to retirements on or after that date.
