Grants retroactive membership with Tier IV status in the New York state and local employees' retirement system to Dawn Ward

This bill grants Dawn Ward, a former employee of the Village of Kensington, retroactive membership in the New York State and Local Employees' Retirement System with Tier IV status. It allows her to count her employment starting in 1993 toward her retirement benefits, provided she files an application within one year of the bill's effective date. The Village of Kensington is responsible for covering all past service costs associated with this change, and the legislation does not require Ward to refund any contributions she has already made.
