Authorizes the county of Tompkins to offer an optional twenty year retirement plan to Bryan Jolly, a deputy sheriff employed by such county upon such officer's election to participate in such plan.
Impact
If enacted, this bill will have a direct impact on the retirement scheme for law enforcement officers in Tompkins County. By granting Jolly the opportunity to participate in a more beneficial retirement plan, the county reinforces its commitment to support its employees in law enforcement. The legislation acknowledges the unique circumstances surrounding Jolly's case and seeks to rectify what could be seen as an oversight in acknowledging his service and benefits.
Summary
Bill S07848 authorizes Tompkins County to offer an optional twenty-year retirement plan to Bryan Jolly, a deputy sheriff. This proposal is aimed specifically at providing retroactive retirement benefits to Jolly, allowing him to gain credit for his service as a deputy sheriff despite missing the filing deadline for the plan at the time of his promotion in 2018. The bill stipulates that the county must incur any associated costs, as well as any past service costs that arise from implementing this act, within a specified timeframe.
Contention
One notable aspect of the bill is that it could set a precedent for other similarly situated employees who may have also missed critical deadlines. This could lead to additional requests from other sheriffs or deputy sheriffs, potentially creating a fiscal burden on the county. The bill’s supporters may argue that it is essential to honor public servants and correct administrative oversights, while critics may raise concerns about fairness to other employees and the long-term fiscal implications of expanding retirement options retroactively.
