AN  ACT  to  authorize  the  village of Dobbs Ferry 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 Dobbs Ferry, 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 Michael Marron and Jeffrey Jee,
police officers employed by the village of Dobbs Ferry, who, for reasons
not ascribable to their own negligence, failed to make a timely applica-
tion to participate in such optional twenty year retirement plan.    The
village  of  Dobbs  Ferry  may  so  elect by filing with the state comp-
troller, on or before December 31,  2015,  a  resolution  of  its  local
legislative  body  together with certification that such police officers
did not bar themselves from participation 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,
2016.
  S  2. All employer past service costs associated with implementing the
provisions of this act shall be borne by the village of Dobbs Ferry  and
may be amortized over a ten year period.
  S 3. This act shall take effect immediately.
