Statute text

(a)Upon attaining the age of 50 years or more, the combined current and prior service pension for state patrol members and for local safety members with respect to local safety service rendered to a contracting agency that is subject to the provisions of this section is a pension derived from the contributions of the employer sufficient when added to the service retirement annuity that is derived from the accumulated normal contributions of the member at the date of his or her retirement to equal 3 percent of his or her final compensation at retirement, multiplied by the number of years of patrol service or local safety service subject to this section with which he or she is credited at retirement.

(b)In no event shall the current service pension and the combined current and prior service pensions under this section for all service to all employers exceed an amount that, when added to the service retirement annuity related to that service, equals 85 percent of final compensation. For state patrol members with respect to service for all state employers under this section, the benefit shall not exceed 90 percent of final compensation. If the pension relates to service to more than one employer and would otherwise exceed that maximum, the pension payable with respect to each employer shall be reduced in the same proportion as the allowance based on service to that employer bears to the total allowance computed as though there were no limit, so that the total of the pensions shall equal the maximum. Where a state or local member has service under this section with both state and local agency employers, the higher maximum shall apply and the additional benefit shall be funded by increasing the member’s pension payable with respect to the employer for whom the member performed the service subject to the higher maximum.

(c)For patrol members employed by the state on or after January 1, 2000, this section shall supersede Section 21362.
