       Introduced by M. of A. ABBATE -- read once and referred to the Committee
         on Governmental Employees
       AN  ACT to amend the parks, recreation and historic preservation law, in
         relation to increasing the mandatory retirement age of New York  state
         regional park police
         THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
       BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
    1    Section 1. Subdivision 4 of section 13.17 of the parks, recreation and
    2  historic preservation law, as amended by chapter  662  of  the  laws  of
    3  1972, is amended to read as follows:
    4    4.  Any  member  appointed  on  or after April first, nineteen hundred
    5  sixty-five shall be separated from such service upon  attaining  [sixty-
    6  two] SIXTY-FIVE years of age.
    7    S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
         FISCAL NOTE.--Pursuant to Legislative Law, Section 50:
         This  bill  would  provide that any New York State park police officer
       appointed on or after April first, nineteen hundred sixty-five shall  be
       separated  from  such service upon attaining age sixty-five, rather than
       the current age sixty-two.
         If this bill is  enacted,  there  could  be  additional  benefits  for
       certain  park  police  officers who remain employed beyond their current
       mandatory retirement age.  However, if some members delay retirement due
       to enactment of this bill, we would not anticipate that there  would  be
       an  increase in the annual contribution rates as a percentage of payroll
       for New York State.
         This estimate, dated April 8, 2011, and intended for use  only  during
       the  2011  Legislative Session, is Fiscal Note No. 2011-166, prepared by
       the Actuary for the New York State and Local Police and Fire  Retirement
       System.
