FISCAL ANALYSIS



ASSUMPTION



The Joint Committee on Public Employee Retirement indicates that this legislation does not represent a "substantial proposed change" in future plan benefits as defined in Section 105.660(5), and, as such, an actuarial cost statement is not required.



Officials with the Public School Retirement System (PSR), Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE), Kansas City Public School Retirement System (KCPSRS), and St. Louis Public School Retirement System (STLPSRS) assume the proposal has no fiscal impact on their agency.

FISCAL IMPACT - Small Business

DESCRIPTION



This proposal provides administrators in a metropolitan school district the option of coming out of retirement while not relinquishing their retirement benefits for up to four years. This same option is currently available to teachers in metropolitan school districts, as well as administrators and teachers in metropolitan charter schools.

This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental space.
