  Section  1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, Mary Jacquelyn
Barry, a member of the New York state and  local  employees'  retirement
system,  who  was  employed  by the city of Rome, commencing on June 25,
1976, who, for reasons not ascribable to her  own  negligence,  did  not
file  a  membership  application in such system until September 1, 1988,
may be deemed to have become a member of the New York  state  and  local
employees'  retirement  system on June 25, 1976 if on or before December
31, 2009 she shall file with the state comptroller a written request  to
that  effect.    Upon  the granting of such retroactive membership, Mary
Jacquelyn Barry shall be granted a refund of any employee  contributions

the New York State and Local Employees' Retirement System  on  June  25,
1976, her first date of employment with the city of Rome, thereby grant-
ing her Tier 2 status. All member contributions will be refunded.
  If  this bill is enacted, we anticipate that there will be an increase
of approximately $1,300 in the annual contributions of the State of  New
York for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2010.
