Grants retroactive tier IV membership in the New York city employees' retirement system to Ryan D. O'Connor

This bill grants Ryan D. O'Connor retroactive membership in the New York City Employees' Retirement System, allowing him to count his service from January 2012 toward his pension despite a delay in joining. The legislation applies specifically to O'Connor because he was unable to enroll during his employment with the New York City Transit Authority due to reasons not caused by his own negligence. If O'Connor submits a written request within one year of the bill's effective date, he will receive Tier IV status without having his existing contributions refunded. The City of New York will be responsible for covering all past service costs associated with implementing this change.
