Relates to enacting the "State Police Retention act"
This bill (A 9155) creates a "State Police Retention Act" that establishes a voluntary "Deferred Retirement Option Plan" (DROP) for eligible members of the state police division. It allows officers with at least 20 years of service who qualify for retirement to delay receiving their benefits for 12-36 months while continuing to work; during this period, their benefits accrue interest at 1.5% annually. Upon completing the deferral period, they receive the accumulated total (including interest) and begin their normal retirement benefits. The program expires after five years but does not affect officers who have already elected DROP.
