Resolution of the Mayor and Aldermen of the City of Annapolis,
adopted pursuant to the authority contained in Article 11-E of the

receive by reason of his prior city employment any retirement allowance
under the provisions of Article 73-B, titled "Pensions" of the Annotated
Code of Maryland (1970 Replacement Volume), shall be paid an additional
sum by the Mayor and Aldermen of the City of Annapolis that, when added
to whatever sum any such person is receiving from the Employees' Re-
tirement System of the State of Maryland, shall be equivalent to 2% of his
annual salary (as of the date of his retirement) for each year of continuous
service, or fraction thereof, upon application to the Mayor and Aldermen
of the City of Annapolis. The supplement payment thus allowed shall in
no case exceed $200 per month. Said Mayor and Aldermen shall annually
levy an amount sufficient to pay such additional allowance as established
under this section. The provisions of this section shall not apply unless

who are recipients of supplemental payments from the Mayor and Alder-

retired persons who are receiving supplemental payments prior to the
adoption of this resolution shall continue to receive the additional allow-

which was in effect just prior to the effective date of this Charter Amend-
