Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Chicago Teachers Article of the Illinois Pension Code. Provides that a member who retires after June 1, 2004 and before June 30, 2009 and within 6 months of the last day of teaching for which contributions were required may make a one time contribution to the system and thereby avoid early retirement reduction in allowance. Provides that an election by a member to make such a contribution obligates the last Employer to make a one time contribution to the Fund. Amends the State Mandates Act to require implementation without reimbursement. Effective immediately.

 Pension Note (Pension Laws Commission)
 HB 3217 would increase the accrued liability of the Fund by $111.7 million, assuming 80% of all eligible members make use of the ERO option. The corresponding increase in total annual cost has not been calculated.
