Sponsor's memo

BILL NUMBER:S4756

Title of bill

An act granting retroactive membership with tier IV status in the New York state and local employees' retirement system to Jessica Strizzi

Purpose or general idea of bill

The purpose of this bill is to grant Jessica Strizi retroactive tier membership in Tier IV.

Summary of specific provisions

Section one of this bill deems Jessica Strizzi a member of the retirement system as of the date of her employment, on June 28, 2007, by the village of Green Island, if on or before December 31, 2015 she shall file an application therefore with the state comptroller. Upon the receipt of such an application, Jessica Strizzi shall be granted Tier IV status in the New York state local employees' retirement system and be made eligible for all the rights and benefits thereof.

Section two provides that all past service costs will be borne by the village of Green Island.

Section three provides for an immediate effective date.

Justification

Jessica Strizzi should be reinstated into Tier IV based upon her membership application in the New York state and local employees' retirement system, which was filed on June 28, 2007. This bill addresses concerns raised in the veto message, and reinforces evidence provided by the village of Green Island, that due to an administrative error and for reasons not ascribable to her own negligence, the application was not processed until July 9, 2012, therefore incorrectly placing her in Tier V.
