(A)     PARTICIPATION BY LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS.

IF AT LEAST 60% OF THE LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS OF AN ELIGIBLE
GOVERNMENTAL UNIT WHO ARE MEMBERS OF A LOCAL PENSION SYSTEM PETITION
TO BECOME MEMBERS OF THE LOCAL FIRE AND POLICE SYSTEM, THE LEGISLATIVE
BODY OF THE ELIGIBLE GOVERNMENTAL UNIT MAY APPROVE THE PARTICIPATION

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived without substantive
change from former Art. 73B, § 10-229(a)(1).

In subsections (a) and (b) of this section, the phrase "at least" is added to
modify "60%" for clarity.

Also in subsections (a) and (b) of this section, the former references to the
application of "this subtitle" are deleted as unnecessary; implicit in this
subtitle is its application to those eligible governmental units that elect to
participate.

Also in subsections (a) and (b) of this section, the former references to the
"sign[ing]" of the petition by the "law enforcement officers" or "fire fighters"
are deleted as included in the references to "petition[ing]".

Defined terms: "Eligible governmental unit" § 31-201
"Fire fighter" § 31-201
"Law enforcement officer" § 31-201
"Local Fire and Police System" § 20-101
"Local pension system" § 31-201
"Member" § 20-101

31-204. CREDIT FOR SERVICE BEFORE EFFECTIVE DATE.

IF A LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER OR FIRE FIGHTER JOINS THE LOCAL FIRE
AND POLICE SYSTEM WITHIN 1 YEAR AFTER THE EFFECTIVE DATE, THE MEMBER IS
ENTITLED TO CREDIT FOR EMPLOYMENT WITH THE PARTICIPATING
GOVERNMENTAL UNIT BEFORE THE EFFECTIVE DATE.
