   THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND  ASSEM-
 BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
 
   Section  1.  Notwithstanding  any other law to the contrary, Steven R.
 Grice, who is currently a Tier VI member of the New York state and local
 employees' retirement system and currently employed  by  the  county  of
 Genesee, and who commenced employment with the county of Genesee on June
 22,  1981,  and  who,  for reasons not ascribable to his own negligence,
 failed to become a member of the New York  state  and  local  employees'
 retirement  system in 1981, may be deemed to have become a member of the
 New York state and local employees' retirement system on June 22,  1981,
 if  within  one  year of the effective date of this act he shall file an
 application therefor with the state comptroller. Upon  receipt  of  such
 application, Steven R. Grice shall be granted Tier III status in the New
 York  state  and  local employees' retirement system and be eligible for
 all the rights and benefits thereof. No contributions made  to  the  New
 York  state  and  local  employees' retirement system by Steven R. Grice
 shall be returned to him pursuant to this act.
   § 2. Any past service costs incurred in implementing the provisions of
 this act shall be borne by the county of Genesee.
   § 3. This act shall take effect immediately.
   FISCAL NOTE.--Pursuant to Legislative Law, Section 50:
   This bill will grant Tier 3 status in the New  York  State  and  Local
 Employees' Retirement System to Steven R. Grice, a current Tier 6 member
 employed by the county of Genesee, by changing his date of membership to
 June  22, 1981, his first date of employment with the county of Genesee.
 There will be no refund of member contributions. As a Tier 3 member with
 over 10 years of membership, he will no longer be required  to  make  3%
 member contributions.
 
  EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                       [ ] is old law to be omitted.
