A 6761 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to the retirement of correction officers of the Westchester county correction department

This bill establishes new retirement benefits for Westchester County correction officers. It provides two tiers: officers retiring after 25 years of service receive a pension equal to 50% of their final average salary, while those retiring after 30 years receive 60%. The bill also allows full credit for wartime service after World War I and sets early retirement calculations at 1/50th of final salary per year. The county of Westchester bears all implementation costs, and the changes apply immediately to all qualifying retirees.
