Additional deposits by members, when.
169.035. A member may at the member's option, and under such regulations
as the board of trustees may adopt, deposit additional sums in multiples of
twenty-five dollars but not to exceed in total in any one year ten percent of
the compensation on which contributions were collected during that year. Such
deposits, together with interest thereon compounded in the same manner and at
the same rate as for the member's contributions, shall be available to
provide at the date of the member's retirement at net rates based on the
actuarial assumptions then in use, a retirement allowance in addition to that
provided pursuant to section 169.070. In the event of the death of a member
before receiving a retirement allowance, the total amount of such accumulated
deposits with interest shall be paid to the member's beneficiary, or to the
member's estate if there is no beneficiary. In the event of the termination
of membership before the member receives a retirement allowance, the member
shall be paid the total amount of such accumulated deposits with interest if
the member has contributed for more than five years, but without interest if
the member has contributed for not more than five years. Such deposits may be
withdrawn without interest by a member prior to the member's retirement when
the member is not terminating the member's membership, in accordance with
regulations of the board of trustees. In case a retired member who is
receiving such an additional retirement allowance pursuant to this section
dies without having received in additional retirement allowances an amount
equal to the amount of the member's accumulated deposits at retirement, the
difference shall be paid to the member's beneficiary, or to the member's
estate if there is no beneficiary. The option provided by this section shall
apply only to members who have elected to begin such deposits before
September 1, 1996.
