  Section 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary,
Bradley M. Fuerst, a member of the New York state and local  police  and
fire  retirement  system,  who began employment as a police officer with
the village of Bath on March 22, 2011 and currently remains employed  by
such  village,  and  who,  through no fault of his own, failed to file a
timely application to participate in the special twenty year  retirement
plan  pursuant  to sections 384-d and 384-e of the retirement and social
security law resulting in the crediting of his service with the  village

ment  plan  for such service upon the election of the village of Bath to

certification  that such police officer did not bar himself from partic-
ipation in such retirement plan as  a  result  of  his  own  negligence.
Thereafter,  such  police  officer  may  elect  to  be  covered  by  the
provisions of sections 384-d and 384-e  of  the  retirement  and  social
security law from the date he commenced his employment as a police offi-
cer by such village, and shall be entitled  to the full rights and bene-
fits  associated  with coverage under such section while so employed, by
filing a request to that effect with the state comptroller on of  before
June 30, 2016.
  S   2.  All  past  service  costs  associated  with  implementing  the
provisions of this act shall be borne by the village of Bath.
