3-12C-507. Purchase of prior service credit on tax-deferred basis. Other provisions of this chapter notwithstanding, any participating unit may become a tax-qualifying purchase unit at any time on or after July 1, 1996, if the unit is able to transmit credited service purchase data to the system by electronic media compatible with the system. The decision to become a tax-qualifying purchase unit shall be made by the elected official, the appointed official, or the governing body in charge of the unit. The unit shall become a tax-qualifying purchase unit as soon as notice of the decision has been delivered in writing to the system. If a unit becomes a tax-qualifying purchase unit, any unit employee member who purchases credited service under this chapter shall do so as provided in § 3-12C-508. A tax-qualifying purchase unit at a later date may choose to rescind such status and may do so by delivering written notice of the decision to the system. However, if such a rescission, any employer contribution agreement entered into pursuant to § 3-12C-508, but not yet completed, shall continue until completion or until death or termination of the member.
