Sponsor's memo
Title of bill
An act to authorize Harry L. Sidor eligibility to apply for military service credit in the New York city teachers' retirement system
Purpose
This bill would allow Navy veteran Harry L. Sidor to apply for military service credit for the period of his military service.
Justification
Harry L. Sidor, a retired member of the New York City Teachers' Retirement System (NYCTRS), served honorably in active duty in the United States Navy from May 25, 1951 until May 19, 1955. Chapter 644 of the Military Law of 1998 permitted public employees to purchase military service credit in their retirement system for the length of time of that military service, up to three years. Harry Sidor was a member of NYCTRS from February 1, 1988 until his retirement on July 17, 1997. Since Mr. Sidor retired before December 21, 1998, the effective date of Chapter 644, he was not eligible to apply for military service credit under such provision.
This bill would allow Harry L. Sidor to apply for up to three years of military service credit for the period of his military service.
