AN ACT
To repeal section 70.686, RSMo 1994, relating to retirement benefits for officers and employees of political subdivisions, and to enact in lieu thereof one new section relating to the same subject.
Section A. Section 70.686, RSMo 1994, is repealed and one new section enacted in lieu thereof, to be known as section 70.686, to read as follows:
70.686. If a retirant becomes employed in a position covered by the system, [he] such retirant shall forfeit one monthly allowance payment for each calendar month in which [he] the retirant renders any such employment[. During such employment, a retirant shall not accrue additional credited service nor shall he contribute to the system]; except that, the retirant shall be considered a reemployed member with contributions due immediately in accordance with sections 70.705 and 70.710. Such period of reemployment shall be for a minimum of one year of continuous membership service before the retirant shall receive any additional allowance. Any reemployed retirant who has one or more years of membership service after reemployment and later retires shall receive an additional allowance calculated to include only the membership service and the average compensation earned by the member since reemployment, if such employment is less than the period described in section 70.656. In either event, the original allowance and the additional allowance, shall become effective after making application in accordance with section 70.645. If the retirant retired pursuant to section 70.680, the provisions of section 70.680 shall apply.
