§ 51.1-810 Time credited to service record
The time of service of any member of a police department having a police pension and retirement board prior to June 22, 1940, shall be computed to the credit of the member’s service record; however, the pension amount payable shall be determined by that proportion of the amounts provided for by this chapter, which the time of service of such member serving in the police department at the time of his retirement, or disability, bears to twenty years.
History
This law was first created in 1940. The record of its establishment is cataloged at page 738 of that year’s edition of “Acts of Assembly,” the annual state publication listing all changes made to the Code of Virginia in that year. Unfortunately, the 1940 “Acts” aren’t available online. It has been modified 3 times. Those modifications are cataloged by “The Acts of Assembly,” a state publication, by year and chapter. Those modifications that can be read on the General Assembly’s website will be linked accordingly. Those modifications are as follows: in 1942, when it was recodified as § 3035g; in 1950, when it was recodified as § 51-118; in 1990, chapter 832.
