This bill addresses the retirement contributions for Alaine Pappin, an employee of Independent School District No. 281 in Robbinsdale, Minnesota. It mandates that both the employee and employer make contributions for previously unreported service prior to July 1, 1989, as specified in Minnesota Statutes, section 353.27, subdivision 12b. The bill clarifies that these contributions are permissible even though Pappin was not enrolled in a public pension plan at the time the service was rendered. Furthermore, the contributions will retroactively establish Pappin's membership in a public pension fund and grant her eligibility for an unreduced early retirement benefit.
The Public Employees Retirement Association is tasked with calculating the required contributions, including interest, based on an omitted salary of $3,185. The bill also includes an effective date, stating that the provisions will take effect the day after final enactment.
