The bill authorizes the St. Clair County Commission to provide cost-of-living adjustments or other payments to former county officials, specifically former sheriffs and revenue commissioners serving in supernumerary offices. These payments will be made in the same manner as those provided to retirees under the State Employees' Retirement System, contingent upon approval by the county commission for any fiscal year in which such payments are made. The funding for these supernumerary retirement payments will come from the county's general fund.
Additionally, the bill specifies that the new provisions will take effect on June 1, 2025. The legal language inserted into the current law includes the authorization for the county commission to grant these payments, while no deletions from existing law are noted in the summary provided.
