§ 529. Pensions  providing  for  increased  take  home pay for certain
  teachers.  Notwithstanding any other provisions of law to the  contrary,
  beginning  with  the payroll period the first day of which is nearest to
  April first, nineteen hundred sixty-one  and  ending  with  the  payroll
  period  immediately  prior  to that the first day of which is nearest to
  April first, nineteen hundred seventy,  any  member  of  the  retirement
  system  who  is  a  teacher within the provisions of subdivision four of
  section five hundred one of this article in the employ  of  a  community
  college  shall  be  deemed  for  the  purposes of providing pensions for
  increased take home pay to be a teacher within the provisions of section
  five hundred twenty-eight of this article, provided that  the  board  of
  trustees  of the community college employing such teacher files with the
  retirement board a certified copy of the  resolution,  approved  by  the
  local  sponsor  acting  through  its  local legislative body or board or
  other appropriate governing agency, of such board of trustees  resolving
  that  teachers  employed in such community college shall be eligible for
  pensions providing for increased take home pay.  Such resolutions  shall
  also  specify  the  per  centum  of  their  compensation  by which their
  contributions shall be reduced, which shall be five  per  centum  unless
  eight  per centum is specifically designated.  In the event that such an
  approved resolution is so filed, the contributions of such  teachers  so
  employed  in  such community college shall be reduced by either five per
  centum or eight per centum of their compensation, as  provided  in  such
  resolution,   in   the   manner   prescribed  in  section  five  hundred
  twenty-eight of this article beginning with the payroll period the first
  day of which is nearest to the first day of the month following the  day
  such   certified  approved  resolution  is  filed,  and  thereafter  the
  contributions for each member of the retirement system employed by  such
  community college whose rate of contribution is reduced by virtue of the
  provisions of this section and section five hundred twenty-eight of this
  article shall be made to the pension accumulation fund by such community
  college, the local sponsor, the local legislative body or board or other
  appropriate  governing agency in the same manner and at the same time as
  other contributions are  made  by  such  community  college,  the  local
  sponsor,  the  local  legislative  body  or  board  or other appropriate
  governing agency as the employer of members of the retirement system  at
  a  rate  to  be  fixed  in  accordance  with the procedure prescribed in
  section five hundred twenty-eight of this article,  and  all  applicable
  provisions  of  said  section  five  hundred twenty-eight subject to the
  applicable  per  centum  of  a  teacher's  compensation  by  which   his
  contribution shall be reduced shall apply to such community college, the
  local  sponsor, the local legislative body or board or other appropriate
  governing agency and to members of the  retirement  system  employed  by
  such board of trustees.
