Introduced  by  Sen.  SAVINO -- read twice and ordered printed, and when
  printed to be committed to the Committee on Cultural Affairs, Tourism,
  Parks and Recreation

AN ACT to amend the parks, recreation and historic preservation law,  in
  relation  to increasing the mandatory retirement age of New York state
  regional park police

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

  Section 1. Subdivision 4 of section 13.17 of the parks, recreation and
historic  preservation  law,  as  amended  by chapter 662 of the laws of
1972, is amended to read as follows:
  4. Any member appointed on or  after  April  first,  nineteen  hundred
sixty-five  shall  be separated from such service upon attaining [sixty-
two] SIXTY-FIVE years of age.
  S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
  FISCAL NOTE.--Pursuant to Legislative Law, Section 50:
  This bill would provide that any New York State  park  police  officer
appointed  on or after April first, nineteen hundred sixty-five shall be
separated from such service upon attaining age sixty-five,  rather  than
the current age sixty-two.
  Insofar  as  this  will affect the New York State and Local Police and
Fire Retirement System, if this bill is enacted, there  could  be  addi-
tional  benefits  for  certain  park police officers who remain employed
beyond their current mandatory retirement age. However, if some  members
delay  retirement due to enactment of this bill, we would not anticipate
that there would be an increase in the annual contribution  rates  as  a
percentage of payroll for New York State.
  This estimate, dated January 20, 2009 and intended for use only during
the  2009  Legislative  Session, is Fiscal Note No. 2009-98, prepared by
the Actuary for the New York State and Local Police and Fire  Retirement
System.

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