Relates to the retirement of county and municipal airport firefighters
This bill creates an optional 25-year retirement plan specifically for county and municipal airport firefighters who handle aircraft rescue and firefighting duties. Under the new provisions, eligible firefighters can retire after completing 25 years of service to receive a pension equal to half their final average salary, with potential increases for additional years of service up to a maximum of three-quarters of their final salary. The plan is not automatic; it requires the employer to vote to adopt it and pay the associated costs, and it applies only to those whose employers make this election. Airport firefighters who do not retire under this new plan can still use their service credit toward other retirement plans available to them.
