AN ACT authorizing Michael P. Koval to receive retirement service credit
  for prior service

  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,  Michael  P.
Koval,  who was a police officer in the village of Watkins Glen, for the
period from September 6, 1988 through July 1, 1991, and who is currently
an officer with the city of Ithaca  police  department,  and  who  is  a
member  of  the  New  York  state  and  local police and fire retirement
system, and who, for reasons not ascribable to his  own  negligence  did
not  receive  service credit toward his optional 20 year retirement plan
for such period, shall be entitled to receive service credit toward such
plan for such period if, within one year from the effective date of this
act, he files a written request to that  effect  with  the  state  comp-
troller.
  S 2. All past service costs associated with the implementation of this
act shall be borne by the city of Ithaca.
  S 3. This act shall take effect immediately.
  FISCAL  NOTE.--This  bill  will  allow  Police  Officer Michael Koval,
currently employed by the City of Ithaca, to receive  credit  under  the
provisions  of  Section  384-d of the Retirement and Social Security Law
for the period from September 6, 1988 through July 1, 1991 when he was a
police officer with the Village of Watkins Glen.
  If this bill is enacted, we anticipate that there will be an immediate
past service cost of approximately $66,000, which will be borne  by  the
Village  of  Watkins Glen as a one-time payment. This estimate assumes a
February 1, 2012 payment date.
  This estimate, dated March 16, 2011 and intended for use  only  during
the  2011  Legislative Session, is Fiscal Note No. 2011-140, prepared by
the Actuary for the New York State and Local Police and Fire  Retirement
System.
