"A short retirement for Rotterdam clerk"by Matthew Roy
Gazette Reporter
Rotterdam - Town Clerk Eunice O. Esposito resigned for a single day in order to become eligible
for a state pension, but the Town Board promptly reappointed her to continue on as clerk
Wednesday night.
Esposito, a longtime town employee, submitted a letter of resignation to the Town Board in September,
in which she resigned effective Wednesday.
The Town Board, accepted her resignated from the $39,179-a-year post. But the board reappointed
Esposito to the post, effective Thursday.
Supervisor James A. Constantino and board members Ralph Salerno and John Macejka, all Democrats,
voted for the measure; Republican Councilman Joseph Signore abstained. Councilman Vincent
Fernandez was absent. "It's just procedure," Esposito said of the move. The board's re-appointment
was to fill the remainder of her elected term, through Dec. 31, 1997.
Dennis Tompkins, a spokesman for the state comptroller's office, said that one-day resignations do
make a person eligible for benefits.
"it's nothing we encourage, but it's certainly legal," he said
For many people, subsequent earnings in public sector jobs are limited to $11,200-a-year while they
collect a pension, Tompkins said, After that pension decreases dollar-for-dollar with earnings.
But that cap does not apply to people age 70 and older, who have no income limits, he said,Esposito is 70.
Esposito is a Democrat who has handily won elections with support from the Republican party as well.
