Create a new section of KRS Chapter 164 to define "postsecondary institution" and "police officer"; provide that postsecondary institutions may employ retired police officers provided the officer was a police officer at retirement, retired with at least 20 years of service credit with no administrative charges pending, and met the separation of employment requirements so that retirement benefits from Kentucky Retirement Systems were not voided; provide that retired police officers employed by a postsecondary institution shall continue to receive the benefits they were eligible to receive upon retirement, but shall not accrue any additional retirement or health benefits during reemployment; provide that retirement and any health contributions shall not be paid by the postsecondary institution to Kentucky Retirement Systems or the Kentucky Employees Health Plan on a retired officer who is reemployed under the section; provide that individuals employed under the section may be employed for a term not to exceed one year, which may be renewed at the discretion and need of the postsecondary institution; limit number reemployed under the program to greater of 5 officers or 25% of the university police force in 2018; amend KRS 61.637 to conform.
