SB 122

Abstract

Amends the Chicago Police Article of the Illinois Pension Code. Removes an age limitation on eligibility for a refund of contributions. Deletes language providing that a policeman may receive a refund until the annuity to which he is entitled has been fixed. Provides that any refund under the Article shall be calculated based on the policeman's contributions to the fund, less the amount of any annuity benefit previously received by the policeman and his beneficiaries. Provides that a policeman shall have no such right of refund if the sum of the annuity benefits the policeman and his beneficiaries have received exceeds the sum to which the policeman has contributed to the fund. Amends the State Mandates Act to require implementation without reimbursement.
