AN ACT authorizing Sharon  Culver  Flansburg  to  file  for  retroactive

  system with Tier 1 status

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

  Section  1. Notwithstanding any inconsistent provision of law, rule or
regulation, Sharon Culver Flansburg, who was employed  by  the  City  of
Hornell  during  1971 and 1972 and who for reasons not ascribable to her
own negligence did not become a member of the New York state  and  local
employees'  retirement system on such date and who is currently employed
by the New York State Unified Court  System  in  Rochester  and  who  is
currently a member of the New York state and local employees' retirement
system,  shall  be  deemed  to  have  become a member of such retirement
system as of July 8, 1971, if, on or before December 31, 2010 she  shall
file a written request with the comptroller to that effect.
  S  2. All past service costs associated with the operation of this act
shall be borne by the state of New York.
  S 3. This act shall take effect immediately.
  FISCAL NOTE.--This bill would deem Sharon Culver Flansburg,  a  member
of  the  New  York State and Local Employees' Retirement System, to have
become a member of such system on July 8,  1971,  thereby  granting  her
Tier 1 status. All past employee contributions will be refunded.
  If this bill is enacted, we anticipated that there will be an increase
of  approximately $2,800 in the annual contributions of the State of New
York for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2011.
  In addition to the annual contributions discussed above, there will be
an immediate past service cost of approximately $128,000 which would  be
borne by State of New York as a one-time payment.
  This estimate, dated June 3, 2010 and intended for use only during the
2010  Legislative  Session, is Fiscal Note No. 2010-162, prepared by the
Actuary for the New York State & Local Employees Retirement System.

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