S 9394 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Provides for a twenty year retirement of county correction officers in Suffolk county

This bill modifies retirement rules for Suffolk County correction officers, allowing them to retire after twenty years of service instead of the previous twenty-five-year requirement. Under the new provisions, officers with twenty years of service would receive a pension equal to 40% of their final average salary, while those with twenty-five or thirty years would receive 50% or 60% respectively. The legislation also clarifies how military service is counted toward retirement eligibility and outlines how past service costs will be funded by the county over ten years. These changes apply to all correction officers who retire on or after the bill's effective date.
