What’s in it
AI summary Police and fire workers in certain city retirement systems could choose to retire earlier at age 50 if they have worked for 22 years. If they pick this option, they would receive a smaller retirement payment than they would if they waited until age 55.1
Read the official explanation
This bill provides that a member of the municipal fire and police retirement system may elect to retire at 50 years of age with 22 years of service and receive a reduced service retirement allowance, rather than retire at age 55. Similar provisions exist under current law for the peace officers’ retirement, accident, and disability system (Code section 97A.6(2A)).
