The bill authorizes the St. Clair County Commission to provide cost-of-living adjustments or other payments to former county officials, specifically those serving in supernumerary offices, such as former sheriffs or revenue commissioners. 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. The payments will be funded from the county's general fund and will only be granted in fiscal years when similar payments to retirees are approved.

Additionally, the bill specifies that the supernumerary retirement payments will be subject to the same terms and conditions as those for retirees, ensuring consistency in how these payments are administered. The act is set to take effect on June 1, 2025. The new legal language includes the insertion of provisions for the payments and the stipulation of their funding source, while no deletions from current law are noted in the text provided.
