A 8170 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Grants retroactive membership in the New York state and local employees' retirement system to Michael Posillico

Bill A 8170 grants Michael Posillico retroactive membership in the New York State and Local Employees' Retirement System. This allows him to be considered a member of that system as of May 6, 2002, with Tier IV status, if he files a request within one year. This change addresses his previous employment by the town of Brookhaven, where he did not join the system due to reasons beyond his control. The state of New York will cover all past service costs associated with this reclassification.
