Additional pension benefits for certain police officers after twenty-five years of service
Retirement & Social Security (RSS) CHAPTER 51-A, ARTICLE 8, TITLE 10
§ 384-c. Additional pension benefits for certain police officers after
twenty-five years of service. a. In the event a member of the police
force of the city of Glen Cove, in the county of Nassau, who is
contributing to the retirement system, shall continue in service after
twenty-five years of total creditable police service under such section
in such force, he or she shall receive, upon retirement, in addition to
the amount of any retirement allowance he or she would otherwise be
entitled to receive, pursuant to the applicable provisions of this
chapter, an additional pension for such service of one-sixtieth of his
or her final average salary for each completed additional year of
service after twenty-five years. The participating employer in the case
of any police officer eligible for the additional pension benefit
prescribed by this section shall make additional contributions to the
appropriate fund of the retirement system necessary to pay the
difference between the amounts prescribed by this section and the amount
the member would otherwise be entitled to receive at the time of his or
her retirement.

b. The service in the police force of any member of such force, to be
eligible for the additional pension credit under this section shall be
terminated and he shall be retired on or before the first day of the
calendar month next succeeding his attainment of age sixty-two provided,
however, that in the case of the chief of such force who has attained
the age of sixty-two on or before September first, nineteen hundred
sixty-six, to be eligible for additional pension credit under this
section, his service shall be terminated and he shall be retired on or
before August thirty-first, nineteen hundred seventy.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the period terminating August
thirty-first, nineteen hundred seventy, such chief shall be retired on
the first day of the calendar month next succeeding his attainment of
age seventy; provided that service rendered by such chief after
attaining age sixty-five shall not be used to provide additional
benefits, except that the salary paid for such service may be used in
the computation of benefits.

c. The provisions of subdivisions f, g and h of section eighty-four of
this chapter shall not be applicable to the city of Glen Cove in the
county of Nassau.
