Provides for certain death benefits to deputy sheriffs employed by Orange county
This bill establishes death benefits for deputy sheriffs employed by Orange County. It allows the beneficiaries of deceased deputy sheriffs to receive a lump sum payment equal to the pension reserve that would have been established had the employee retired on the date of death, or the value of the death benefit and reserve-for-increased-take-home-pay, whichever is greater. The Orange County government will cover all past service costs associated with implementing this change over a ten-year period, and the bill takes effect immediately upon passage.
