A 10198 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Grants members of the city of New York's police force eligibility for retirement and pension based on previous service as traffic enforcement agents

This bill allows New York City police officers who previously worked as traffic enforcement agents to count that prior service toward their retirement benefits. Officers must pay the equivalent of what they would have contributed to the pension fund if they had started as police officers from the beginning. The provision applies only to those hired as traffic enforcement agents before July 1, 2009, before transferring to the police force. It ensures prior service is recognized without requiring additional employment periods.
