AI Summary
This bill authorizes Gary W. Tirrell to receive additional "creditable service" (which refers to time that counts towards his retirement benefits) from the Massachusetts Teachers' Retirement System for the period he served as an elected member of the city of Westfield parks and recreation commission between 1972 and 1979. To receive this credit, Mr. Tirrell must pay the Massachusetts Teachers' Retirement Board an amount equivalent to what would have been deducted from his salary for retirement during that time, assuming he was paid $500 per year, plus any applicable interest, with the payment terms to be determined by the board. This provision overrides any existing laws that might otherwise prevent him from receiving this service credit.
