AN ACT to authorize the village of Sleepy Hollow to  offer  an  optional
  twenty  year  retirement  plan  to certain police officers employed by
  such village

  THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND  ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  Section 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary,
the  village  of Sleepy Hollow, a participating employer in the New York
state and local police and  fire  retirement  system,  which  previously
elected  to  offer the optional twenty year retirement plan, established
pursuant to section 384-d of the retirement and social security law,  to
police  officers  employed by such village, is hereby authorized to make
participation  in  such  plan  available   to   Jose   Quinoy,   Raymond
D'Alessandro,  and James Warren, police officers employed by the village
of Sleepy Hollow, who, for reasons not ascribable to  their  own  negli-
gence,  failed  to  make  a  timely  application  to participate in such
optional twenty year retirement plan.  The village of Sleepy Hollow  may
so elect by filing with the state comptroller, on or before December 31,
2009,  a  resolution of its local legislative body together with certif-
ication that such police officers did not bar  themselves  from  partic-
ipation  in  such  retirement  plan as a result of their own negligence.
Thereafter, such  police  officers  may  elect  to  be  covered  by  the
provisions  of  section 384-d of the retirement and social security law,
and shall be entitled to the full rights and  benefits  associated  with
coverage under such section, by filing a request to that effect with the
state comptroller on or before June 30, 2010.
  S 2. All employer costs associated with implementing the provisions of
this  act shall be borne by the village of Sleepy Hollow over a ten year
period.

 EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                      [ ] is old law to be omitted.
